    Damien Williams came in and was great in pass protection for the dolphins. Especially in the late stages of the game

    I watched the end of that Dallas game. What a great performance by Demarco. He just kept banging away at that line, getting what he could, and finally exploded when he actually got a hole to run through.

    • Glocal Sooner says:

      I loved watching how physical he was on impact with the Seattle defenders. There was one shot on the tv screen showing him running over Sherman. The look on Sherman’s face was priceless.

      I don’t even like the Cowboys but I couldn’t help myself from cheering for DeMarco.

    As a Bears fan, I really wish they would have kept Tress Way over Pat O’Donnell, not only because he’s a Sooner, but because he’s easily outperforming him right now. The management wasted a draft pick on a punter and then cut the better player because they used the pick for a punter. Go BEARS!!!!!!!!!!!

      BTW, it was great to see Demontre Hurst “start” at nickel yesterday and plat pretty darn good in his first extensive game action.

      Huge Bears fan! I agree with your sentiments. What a waste of a draft pick! I am biased as well being a Sooner fan, but the stats speak for themselves! Bear Down!! Boomer Sooner!!

  • CS says:

    7 tackles, wow! Good for Corey man, is he playing outside LB or middle LB?

  • Krys Allen says:

    Anyone else disappointed that Clay was cut from the Broncos, and now with Ball out I feel like he would have been a good fit.. Wonder if it was all about that dust up he had, or if he just wasn’t getting it done?

    • Daddy R says:

      I’m just guessing he wasnt any better than Hillman (minus Hillmans fumble issues), or the other backs on roster. I do wish he had stayed though… I like the Juwan Thompson kid outta Duke. He seems to have a nice skill set, and good size and power.. I’m not convinced about Ball being the guy.

  • JrsySooner says:

    Chester should get credit for a tackle, while a receiver was making his way towards the end zone Chester bumped into him knocking him down, a TD that never was and could have won the game for the Skins man he must be really fast he is having a great year for the skins
