Second, I've said unequivocally that I don't expect Tamba to ever be a defensive player of the year or a 15 sack type guy, but some of you talk about him as if he's the worst defensive lineman in the league and it's silly. The guy had 15.5 sacks and 8 forced fumbles his first two seasons and then after a season where he struggled with injuries and a position change he's worthless? It's silly, and that's what I am pointing out.

It's funny how Tamba takes a beating around here yet it's Derrick Johnson that has been a far bigger disappointment. Johnson was talked about as a top 5 selection and a "can't miss prospect" coming out of the draft yet the guy never shows up in shape, can't read a pre-snap offense, doesn't get into position properly, and doesn't play consistently hard. Yet he seems to get a bit of a pass. I've never seen a linebacker flop around like a fish the way he does at the snap of the ball because he's confused about where the play is going. If anyone is having a make or break season it's that stiff.

Oh and big words offend you Mecca then maybe you should go get an education.

plenty of us are hard on johnson
