  1. Everyone on Draft night was bitching and moaning they "reached" on Williams and they should of taken TJ Tampa because they see Mel's list this goes to show ya teams are better at scouting players then the talking heads lmao

  2. Well, this was a great interview, and it's good to know that the players know they haven't played their best football yet. The problem is consistency, lack of pass rush, and Jordan's reckless play and not protecting the ball. If this could change during the bye week and reverse all these issues, the team can make noise. If the team continues like this, they will only be another 8-9 win team again, but this year thats not good enough to get into the playoffs .

  3. Football instincrs are finely honed learned behaviors that are augmented through constant repetition, and study of the craft. It all seems instinctive because of the speed with which these guys assess the situation, and react. The only natural abilities that separates the great players from merely good players, is their size, and their intelligence. Evan seems pretty darned intelligent.

  4. Evan Williams set a career high with 4 defensive stops despite not having his best game in coverage. Through 7 weeks of NFL football, he ranks 5th among all safeties in PFF grade (89.4). If his coverage skills lack but he plays the line, I’d rather have that. Jaire Alexander and Xavier McKinney can hold coverage so we can have a safety play the line hard and get into the backfield. Go Pack Go 💚💚💛💛
