    I don't drink thanks.

    I come on here to read, I don't come on here to read the same shite by the same posters over and over again, this thread had died down slightly and you bring it back up with absolutely nothing new, nothing.

    Oh but what get's my goat, not sure about other people as it isn't my place to comment for them but why do the people that dislike always have to use certain phrases to add fuel to their fire ? I notice you didn't answer my request to find the man love, I can't figure out why you would say "Hey guys I don't understand the man love for Lee" or whatever there hasn't been any man love for the guy, he has been frankly rubbish but shown a slight level of improvement, that is all, slight.

    Just because 3 posters spotted this and added to the thread it made one hater froth at the mouth so much he exploded and in defence of a player, well that isn't quite correct, in defence of the people who saw a modicum of improvement from the guy and then seen fit to post it in the DARREN LEE (hate) thread only to be told that they are hailing him all pro and such like and now showering him in man love blah blah blah, well that made me froth out of the mouth until I exploded obviously because I just don't understand why you do it, invent stuff and then post it. :confused:

    dude, @NYJetsO12 is the worst poster on this board, bar none. you can have a better conversation by turning off your computer and arguing with the blank screen

    Lee played like absolute shit yesterday. On Tevin Colemans run that set up the go ahead score for the Falcons, Darron Lee gave a half assed attempt at tackling Coleman. He tried to strip the ball, completely whiffed, and never secured the tackle. Justin Burris definitely missed first, but that's only a 4th rounder. Lee is a 1st rounder and a total shitbag as far as I'm concerned.

    Lee has been playing really well off the ball. Attacking, showing his closing speed. Looking like the player we had all hoped for.

    I think it's officially time to start calling Lee a good player and laughing at anyone that thinks otherwise.

    Agreed. Some people would rather deny reality than admit they were wrong.

    He's finally playing well and not just in spurts. Even picked up a sack though it was pretty much running into Taylor.

    I think Lee is still one year away from a breakout year. He's shown tons of improvement the last 3 weeks. It seems this defense as a whole as started to make more plays recently.

    I agree. Lee is really starting to look like he might become an impact player. He's flashing now a bunch of times in a game. His coverage looks like its improved a lot, but it still has a ways to go. He looks like he's thinking less and letting instinct take over. If he keeps improving throughout this year, he could become an all pro and a strong centerpiece in the defense. This defense in a couple of years could be amongst the best in the NFL, especially if they can find an edge rusher.

    Like it or not, Darron Lee is going to be on pace for well over 100 tackles this year.

    Well tbf you can't call folk for that, if this is the first time they have been in the top 5 list, not heard anybody having a pop at McLendon though tbh but after watching the highlights I thought Forte looked like he had some spark back in his legs and looked a half yard quicker on the cut and his figures back that up, wonder if his turf toe injury has cleared up, like I said in another thread if an injury is impacting so much on a players usefulness they are better rested until healed, heal faster and back in the team quicker rather than dragging it out playing at half speed etc etc.

    still ragging on talented players for a bad game or for not having 5 sacks in a game is a common thing around these parts. yes we all know wilk sucked for the 1st 7 games but people were saying to cut him despite the fact we know he has a ton of talent. now he is playing like the old wilk the past 2 games. McLendon hadn't get shit on, but it was more of a shit on the whole d-line minus ealy around here

    I think it is a common thing on any team's internet forum not just here, it is what it is.

    I'm sure it is, but jet fans are probably the top 5 for ragging on it's own players irrationally. eagles are probably worst

    Just goes to show you that not every young player plays lights out from Day 1. Small stretch of good football, hopefully he can keep it up.
