Not to quibble with you, but we DID win the game. The penalty ultimately was inconsequential and if Kirkpatrick doesn't flop like Vlade Divac and hurt himself, it isn't even a blip on the radar.

topwater i hear what you are saying, but you have to let these kids play with their own personalities , some are quiet some are vocal. Miles lets these kids play with their own personalities . That is why they spill their guts out for him, and lay it on the line for him. Miles knows what he is doing.

Yes we did. And I have never said THAT play was a game changer, Just wish he would quit being a potentail game changing player the wrong way.

I don't understand why people are stressing over his trash talking so much has he gotten a penalty for it yet? NO! and his trash talking caused Dre to commit false start on a earlier play. Everyone on that defense trash talks he's just in the spotlight now so the camera's on him more
I don't know about all of them but for some folks, when they idolize Star Athletes they are insecure enough that they love the fact that the stars have a weakness or a vice.
E.g. Tiger Woods and his mistress - what the frick does it have to do with his game? Why bother?
Similarly Tyrann is a fireball of talent and his coach and teammates and all fans know that. These ranter folks like to be holier than thou to just feel happy that maybe they are better in a minute teensy way because they are not trash talkers.
It doesn't mean they hate him or don't admire his play - just that it makes them feel a bit better about themselves.

I don't think you are going to accept anything as a good play so no amount of proof is going to do any good.
TM7 was performing better earlier in the season than he is now. Making the plays he is suppose to (tight end for example) are not what I call great plays (sure it was a great tackle but shouldn't we expect that). He is a db so pursuing a play is not a "great" play....when a dl does it its a great play. Some just want to exhault him for every tackle he makes when he should make them. To me he acts bigger than the team...hogs attention on the sideline etc. I think he is hurting his image nationally by acting the way he is.

But it was not worse than any other Late Hit or other personal foul.
It wasn't even a late hit, or a personal foul. It was a holding call for half the distance to the goal line. That means it was less than 10 yard penalty. Excluding the yardage from the return. And if TM doesn't hold on that play OBJ could have easily been lit up and fumbled resulting in a TD for Bama.
There are times when pass interferance is "ok" because the cornerback lost his WR and the play will result in a TD, why would a hold here not be considered in the same light?
Also I don't see the connection between running his mouth and holding. Maybe he does jaw too much, but he didn't get flagged for that, or for a personal foul or anything, it was a HOLD people.

Half of the people bashing him for the penalty are also saying he played like crap and how the other players are better players etc.. It all proves my point that those people have an agenda, because if they actually watched the game.. He played excellent.
He didn't play excellent, he made a few plays and missed on a few. He wasn't out of position however and was where he needed to be.

The hit on Lee was not border line, it was a 2 1/2 step hit, should have been flaged. TM7 played a good game, keep going HB.

Seriously Tyrann, just keep playing at 100%, and do a little less jawing out there, and you're going to go down as one of the best to ever wear the Purple & Gold!
He's feral. Get him tested for rabies and get him back out on the field.

I understand that. But one thing that really pisses me off about Tyrann is he talks shite non stop but when he gets burned and the player he has been talking smack to gives it back he turns away and runs off....man up and take the smack talk back if that is how you're going to play.

Bama didn't really play a game in which TM would really shine. Look at their passing plays. Again, he didn't play great and didn't play poorly. He got picked off a couple times on short screens in which the receiver was his man. Just good scheming and execution on Bamas part.

Mathieu is a great player but that was a bitch move he pulled.

I agree with this - not all players can shine against all opponents.
Plays like throwing the receiver off route or pressuring the QB or cutting off the RB route don't show up in the stats.
The fact is that he did make some good plays - maybe the percentage was lower (in comparison to his prior stats or to other stars in the current game) but to discount it and highlight only the single foul seems a bit illogical and downright treacherous as a fan.

He didn't act anything bigger than the game. He wasn't even showboating pregame. Again you all have an agenda against the guy. His play was outstanding that night. There is no need to rip on his play outside of one mistake for a penalty.
People trying to downgrade his role on the defense and saying he was acting bigger than the game show clear ignorance. TM7 did not even overly celebrate that night.. One time he had a fist pump after a big solo tackle. That was ABOUT IT.
He has actually lightened up IMHO than his norm.
This whole thing is so overblown, it would be interesting to see if the player didn't get injured and if it was anyone else on the team besides Tyrann that made the mistake. Probably doesn't even get 1 thread.

I am not even mentioning the holding call. While it was out of line IMO there are numerous holds and blocks in the back on returns. I did however see him get beat on some 3rd downs and not come up and make some tackles that I think he should have made. He did not have his best game and certainly not his worst. I don't see why some fans take constructive criticism so negatively. Can we not say a player made a bad play but still like him? IMO he is talking more than he did last year and he is merely making it tougher on himself by motivating the opposing players. I seriously doubt smacktalk from TM7 intimidates SEC players....I think it motivates them.
