hopefully that will silence some of the morons that think DJ is the savior of the defense..

that when he comes back in game 8 no make that 10 11 0r 12. because of Goodells slamming him with another couple weeks and I suspect the moron will not be in game shape walking through the door, plus a few more weeks to learn the play book so that really means later rather than sooner.. .

I think DJ is a ridiculous a$$ as much as the next guy. He is also a very gifted linebacker - much better the WW imho. He has also played more than 1 lineback position so adds lots of flexibility dealing with injuries and the like.

I do worry about how quickly he might get back into playing shape, but if we are looking to go deep into the playoffs, me thinks some DJ would be a very nice addition to this D, even if it later in the year.

I wanna see Woodyard and DJ on the field at the same time. Even if that means Mays isn't on the field.

Woodyard has looked better so far this year then in the past. At this point, I would leave him where he is, I would replace Mays with DJ when he comes back. DJ has played MLB before and Woodyard has not so that's why I like the switch there. And of course, having DJ and Woodyard on the field same time is a good thing. You want your best players on the field and Woodyard is better then Mays. DJ is better then both so that point doesn't need to be made.

DJ can not bring intelligence to the able as a MLB being able to make the calls for the front seven.. he failed at it when he did play it for a time frame after he was SAM, and not only was he unable to relay the calls in from the DC correctly he did not have a clue on changing it if the QB changed the play..

After this year, Denver might want to look towards free agency and to see if they can’t bring in someone who does have MLB experience, because the improvement in the play adjustments was so noticeable, with Brooking getting people into the right spot on multiple plays. Del Rio also called one heck of a game. But as far as next year - draft for the future, certainly, but it seems that the present benefits from an experienced eye at MLB. Brooking also put up five tackles, three of them solo. There was also no drop off in Denver’s overall hitting, a selling point of Mays in the past

DJ is a dummy he can not do those things.. plus he is a drag down tackler not something you want from a MLB it is the spot where you want to meet the ball carrier in the hole or behind the LOS.. Not DJ's forte..

13 - Tackles - 9 Solo - 1 - Sack - 1 Interception

Obviously, he needs to improve.

Now this is a good and understandable bump!

[Bronco Yoda]

What is up with Woodyard. He is really turning it up. I likey.

[mellow mood]

Woodyard looked really good tonight, and no way he comes off the field when dj returns.
Maybe dj back at middle

Either way cheers to woodyard
Hell of a game

You heard it tonight.

"I am not so sure DJ gets his spot back."

if he does it is a slap in the face to the rest of the defense..

JDR does not seem like the guy that would do that..

Like vilma tonight playing WIL because the guy they brought in to do it is playing the best on the D..
If he wants to play it was at WIL he has to earn his playing time..

I would hope that JDR does the same thing. for that matter unless there is an injury cut his dumb ass.. Save the money..

[gyldenlove]

Woodyard, Trevarthan and Brooking all played very well tonight - albeit against the by far worst rushing offense in the league and a gimpy Jimmy Graham.

[Bronco Boy]

The only spot DJ could start at is MLB IMO.

once again I will say it..

DJ has had his chance at MIKE he palyed there one year and mid way through he year had to take the play calling of the front 7 away from him because he was to dumb to make the adjustments..

Brooking as far as I have seen is playing great making the right calls.. why would anyone want to pull an old pro that is doing a great job out for a dumb ass..

hell of a game, worldwide

How about that Holiday...

Would be nice of Brooking was 28. We'd be set.

Woodyard has really stepped up over the last few games, great to see and much needed.

Now hopefully they drop DJ's ass to the curb like they should have during the off-season.

Actually if you look at last years numbers WW out played dj with six less games except on sacks. I suspect that was because he was not asked to blitz when he was in. Because this year he has 3 in seven games.
Last year he was asked to play more ST than he is this year.

[Bronco Rob]

Woodyard has been a candidate for the Pro Bowl as a special-teams player. This year, the voters will have to consider him as a starting outside linebacker. What he did was make 13 tackles, sack Brees once and intercept a pass when the Saints tried on fourth down.

Best/complete game I've seen him play, he was all over the field!

well the interception is a good stats but it was dumb to make because it lost yardage for us..

Had he dropped it on the ground he would have still got the pass defensed and we would have gained yardage..

but what the hell he played a great game.. like he has all year..

Do my eyes deceive me? Have you come around on DJ being crazy overrated here?

[lonestar]

Someone mentioned Ww getting beat on a sporles run.

The failed to see him drop him for a lose the next time they tried it.
