No Love for him tonight?

I thought he stood out on defense. Definite upgrade. Let some of our young safeties learn from the master.

He seemed very willing to put the hat on someone. Definite upgrade. Just read the Offense extremely well and reacted early.
I hope he can continue to play on a high level and with the same intensity for the ENTIRE season

His instincts and positioning are something that's been missing at that position for quite a while. He doesn't have top end speed, but he makes plays and finds the ball. In that sense, he reminds me a little of Knight. And he's definitely going to be a positive influence on some of the younger guys.

Bingo. Bullocks had speed, but he always running really fast in the wrong direction.

I was very impressed with how Sharper broke to the ball. He was basically the Safety version of Vilma.

Finally we get to see the effect a great safety can have on a defense.

Let's face it none of us know what schemes were called and what all his responsibities are on any given play but he looked good to me, and hits like a shot of everclear.

And folks on this board were shitting on people for "overstating" Sharper ( ie. he's old ) and his effect he can have on Harper... /sigh. Looking for good things from the 'arper' brothers this year!

He is what we were missing in a safety...an aggressive, intelligent, instinctive playmaker. Dude is good, I don't care how old he is.
