'19 NJ DE Howard Cross (Notre Dame Signee)

[JD Irish]

Warrior.

 

[Luckylucci]

Pretty crazy to think that the player we saw tonight had zero sacks and TFL’s on the season going into this game.

Dominant performance. One the better statistical nights from a DT in a very long time.

Tillery's 4 sack night against Stanford?

Tillery's 4 sack night against Stanford?

Yup. Or Jarron Jones’ 7 TFL against Miami?

Howard Cross III: 'When it mattered, we made the stop.'

Notre Dame defensive lineman Howard Cross III led the Irish in tackles on Saturday night, including forcing a fumble that sealed the 21-14 win over No. 17 Duke.

Total DOMINATION by Cross!!!

 

[NDFAN2008]

He has one more year left too

He has one more year left too

Do you think he may be playing his way into an early draft position?

 

[SDIrishFan]

Do you think he may be playing his way into an early draft position?

I don’t think he has the NFL measurables so I doubt it.

 

[NDFAN2008]

No he’s too short he’d make more coming back another year at ND

 

[irishff1014]

He has been good all year but the last 2 games he has had a coming out party.

 

[BobbyMac]

Duke stats need to be posted.

13 Tkls .... 3.5 TFL .... 1 Sack ..... 2 FF ..... 6 QBH.

All American performance.

Don't forget the 2 forced fumbles and 6 pressures!

Fixed

 

[Luckylucci]

Yea, he has already publicly said he’ll be returning for that extra year. Could that change if he keeps playing like he did last night? Sure. But, seems doubtful to me.

FUND/boosters need to pay him to be safe. He deserves it

Idk Cross is about the size of Aaron Donald. If you can ball you can ball

Mills has another year too?

Wow. Really?

I hope he remembers he sucks.

@Luckylucci might have been right.

[NDohio]

I didn't notice during the game, but Duke had a different center on that last play where Cross caused the fumble.

 

[CanadalovesND]

To add, after Week 5, with a minimum snap count of 200, Cross is PFFs highest ranked DI player (90.7), and Mills is sixth (82.7).

 

[PutuporShutup]

I'm bumping this again because

1. He deserves it, is playing awesome, and played absolutely unreal vs Duke
2. It's easier to discuss what's not going right, i'm all for a balance in both
3. Did I say he deserves it and how well he played?


Need him to keep playing like that

 

[BeauBenken]

He has been great this year and had always shown promise in the past.

Was it him that got double teamed back ten yards during one of Duke's scoring drives though? I remember a late shift by the defensive line and watching our DT be taken for a ride. Thought it might be him. Pretty sure we still stuffed the run though.

He definitely struggles vs a double, but most teams can't double him because mills will typically obliterate a single guard into the backfield.
