Oh you mean like Reid's two INT's?


Yes, just like that.

Crowning him? He's playing incredible and deserves accolades.

His "knockout" last week yes

A tackle on a short pass is his job.

My reaction is more about the media than it is him. I was more impressed by his blitz and pass knockdown which got no love.

All the tiny babies that will read any random thread on here but not an article from a publication. WOW


So what if it is SI.


Anyways, Honey Badger is doing what we all knew he could. Its amazing to see even still.

That's one of the things people don't realize about the kid along with all his other awesome talents. he's real strong for his size. he slings WR's down to the ground like rag dolls. I watched him knockdown a big RB for Detroit yesterday.

Are you forgetting this guy played no organized football last year? None whatsoever. Plays two years in college then set home a year. Got drafted the next year and was the talk of the Cards camp. At 5'9 190 (soaking wet) he has already impacted his first two games.

Stopped a sure fire TD on a guy he wasn't guarding by not only stripping the ball, but causing it to go as a touchback to give his team the ball. Next game he makes a game ending fourth down "open space" tackle.

Reid has been doing great but for Mathieu to do what he does as a short lightweight safety with a year off from football, is unreal.

great play by mathieu, big shove off, recovers in time to make the game icing tackle.


how about that dart peterson threw. Usually you expert someone like that to throw a lob pass, he threw it on a fricking rope

It's 2 games talk to me when he has played a full season. So far he is doing well though

Thanks for the link. I didn't know that Patrick Peterson had a pass in that game.

With Peterson, his idol, in the same secondary, TM7 could put a nice career together.
