Tamba Hali grade for tonight?
 
Missed part of the game. How did he look. The postgame guy on 810 said he couldn't get off blocks and was on the ground most of the night.

Not sure...I missed the first half as well. 101.1 said he had a really good game.../shrug

The guys on 101KCFX said he had a good game, "particularly the first part of the game".

From what I noticed.. he seemed to be around the ball more often than not.

I'm quite impressed by his transition from DE to OLB. I *NEVER* thought he would take to it. Give him the season to learn the position outright and then we will know what we have in the guy.

They could have been talking about a half dozen guys in the defensive front seven right there. At one point, I thought maybe someone had just lost a contact lens. :hmmm:

Was 4 of a 5 point system.

He sucked last year but him or "coaches".

Nice find so far IMO.

No expert like others.

I havent really seen him in action yet, but i firmly believe Tamba Hali will not wash out at OLB...i feel the same about him as i do Croyle & then some.

1- Character - This guy has literally ran for his life through the timelessly inhospitable African landscape, grew up in a hardscrabble existence that likely few here, including myself, could ever imagine...yet somehow, through the Grace of God, made it here to the fortune of pro football?...this guy has character & heart to spare, someone who takes their best shot at every chance.

2- Talent - Last year i got SO tired of seeing him dwarfed & mauled by 330pd tackles etc. Now, he can use his short area burst to move more freely to the ball, he's used to mauling against bigger guys inside, now he'll be better able to either dodge or bump off blocks in space & use his good size effectively...a 3-4 OLB is perfect for him.

He's gonna be fine.

You keep thinking he's going to break any moment?

Hali looked pretty damn good standing up. I think he's going to be an impact player for us this year.................

I can't believe I said that considering I really thought he was a borderline bust until this preseason.

Dorsey has me wondering a little.

I thought he played well, seemed to be around the ball a lot. Made a few solid (solo) plays against the run and put some pressure on Hasselbeck. I think in the end he might fit this defense better than I expected, in the predator role. I thought he'd be a total flop.

He made some ok plays. Pressured and got very close to a few sacks. Overall not to bad. Tyson Jackson is going to be a beast. I think our D is going to be ok after about 4-6 games.

Offensive line is ****ed.

crazycoffey 08-30-2009 02:53 AM

oh noes, he can NEVER make it at OLB, he was an undersized DE.....





you were just penzed....

TheGuardian 08-30-2009 07:11 AM

Hali has been very solid at olb, just like I said he would be.
