I honestly think him and Bilal did well tonight. Bilal and White have probably locked down the inside back spots for the remainder of the season.

Drew has really stepped things up. He's showing fire and knifes into the backfield so well with his speed.

Both played real well. Not to take away from what they did, but this offense fit their skill level better. Even so, I have to think this game helps their mindset the next time they play an RPO team.

Got his name called a lot 2nd half. Big reason we kept them scoreless after halftime.

Yea, I’d been pretty hard on him earlier in the year but he had some great plays tonight. Stepped up when we needed our defense to do so.

I need to watch the game again because I was distracted for most of it. I was screaming for Lea to pull White in the first half because I didn't think he was playing too well. He was missing tackles and taking bad angles etc. Sounds like he was a leader in the second half. I wish I could've heard Lea's conversation to the defense. Happy to see a defensive player get the game ball, what a second half.

It's really insane that while I'd say we don't have any "elite" inside linebackers we seem to have a 3 deep without any dropoff from "good". In 2017 if either Coney or Tranquil went down we were in big trouble.

Disgraceful performance tonight.

Every time I saw him he was on the ground after another missed tackle.

He was banged up, that's why Bauer started. I think calling his performance disgraceful is poor wording. Jordan Botelho jogging after Howell on his 30 yard TD scamper was disgraceful.

He's not a good fit for Freeman's D. That's not his fault, nor was his injury.

I cant judge his play tonight without knowing what he was being asked to do. He and Bauer both had good games against the pass. Maybe that was a big part of the scheme.

For those of you, like me, who couldn't remember the Botelho play:



It should start at 2:26.

Tore his PCL during the week but still played. We’re living on a prayer at linebacker.

So we lose two captains to knew injuries in the Navy game despite neither being the direct fault of Navy? Damn.

I'm pretty sure BK said he played the whole game with it and that it's nothing major. It happened earlier in the week. Either way it's very concerning.
