Game ball: Week 2, MIA @ MIN

[Brian Fein]

lots of people deserve this that have already been mentioned

Vontae Davis
Jason Allen
Jake Long
Cameron Wake

All of these players get my game ball(s).  A great defensive effort today.  Vontae is turning into a shut-down corner and BOTH of our corners are bad-ass tacklers.  Long manhandled one of the game's best pass rushers.  And Wake had good pressure all game, and the fumble in the end zone ended up being the game winner.

Overall, the defense is turning out to be the team's strong point.

It's nice to be able to develop an offense.  Hopefully, we'll have one while our defense is still good.

In all seriousness, though, a team can't live on defense alone.  (Hello, Baltimore.  That must piss Cam Cameron off to no end.  HAHA)
At some point, an actual NFL offense must be cultivated from the mind of Dan Henning.

I see that the coaching staff is trying to develop a young QB, but at some point, you've got to take the gloves off in order to see what you've got.  I think we have the makings of a pretty good receiver corps.  Why not use all 45 on your active roster?

Jason Allen.

for as much as he was the goat for being picked by Saban in the 1st round, the man has stayed the path of playing hard, doing whatever he can to show he has some skills in this league.

props to him for proving the naysayers wrong.  good luck to him for the rest of the season.

There are SO MANY defensive players I want to give a Game Ball to.  The defense was unstoppable.  So I have to give it to Mike Nolan agian.

Wake. Without his forced fumble, we don't win the game.

The D was pretty impressive yesterday but I too am guilty of shitting on Jason Allen over the years and he has been solid this season. Yesterday he was a badass so I will go with Allen this week.

[Spider-Dan]

Wake. Without his forced fumble, we don't win the game.

Without Dansby's stop, we don't win the game, either.

There were many of those plays. Wake seemed to be getting the short end so I used that one.

Allen was never the goat, Saban for making that pick was
