He looked like a lion among gazelles out there. I love the way he tackles.

Lions use two paws......

He looked good coming off the line, but he could have had several more tackles and sacks for loss if he'd wrap up....he goes high too much.

He's gotten a lot faster since his freshman year and he's actually very fast for an inside lb. He was all over the field today and only missed on a few tackles. The fact that you're saying he's a slow de and doesn't tackle well just amazes me.

AJ played his backside off but if we don't get someone to set the edge on both sides we're hosed for the rest of the year. Tonight, we were sitting up in the stands saying where the ball was going to run and guess what exactly where Murphy ranand every time the DE got hooked inside. Set the Edge!!!!!!WE WIN

I thought he looked great. He was all over the field. I think people hear stuff so much it gets stuck in their head and no matter what they see its always the same in their mind.

No...He got sucked inside repeatedly ... He's a baller for sure but needs next year more than most believe.

I'm sick and tired of watching him try to sling players to the ground. Instead of lowering his shoulder and actually tackling somebody.

I can show 15 plays where he took bad angles,didn't make a tackle when he should have and was slow getting there!

The one play that reminded me so much of last year and even last week was the horrible angle and then missed tackle by Randolph on the long TD catch and run. It was a back breaking play of here we go again.

The missed sack comes to mind but those are going to happen from time to time. I'm sure you can find a few more plays where he couldn't make the tackle. You're either expecting all ilb's to have 4.4 speed or seriously under estimating Florida's speed.
