It's nice to see the defense look respectable, and Tamba played a major role in the outcome.

Samuals was injured, you know?

I hope like hell that he does turn it up and become a stud out there, because he works as hard as anyone to do the best he can, and doesn't attempt to draw attention to himself.

He's a great person as near as I can tell, and I really hope he becomes a great player.

I really like the guy.

And you know with that work ethic and desire, he might well be able to achieve that.


This! :clap:

He's playing well enough to not be a total failure, but he hasn't done nearly enough to make me think he's anything other than a solid backup in the future.

Maybe he continues to progress and proves he's more than a backup, but he sure as hell isn't there yet.


I see a cornerstone of the defense that just needs to be surrounded by more talent.

No way he is a backup.

Not surprised at your inability to see reality.

And that's something no player has been able to do for us in long time.

Lets hope these type of plays can build confidence in Hali.

Mecca 10-18-2009 09:01 PM

If Tamba Hali is a cornerstone of your defense...be prepared to be ranked in the 20's.

Nobody is saying he has to be a cornerstone. Lets just hope he can gain some confidence and make these type of plays again. Little by little.

We'll see, because he will be here a while.

He has no one rushing oposite him that has to be respected. The Chiefs are starting to get some production from Dorsey, but NT and the other DE are not disruptive.

The ILB's are pathetic and the safteties suck.

And, he still makes plays. He is still all over the field.

If he had some more talent around him.... he would be even better.

I am not saying pro bowler, but he is a solid young player that doesn't need to be replaced.

Hey, haven't seen you on the Sanchez thread.... did I miss it?

Mecca 10-18-2009 09:07 PM

Ok if you're going to amend your post to saying hey he's an alright complimentary player if we get better talent out there and he's not a pro bowler..

That's far different than saying he's a cornerstone.
