Thomas' name was barely announced during this game. The highlight of his day was the INT. He was fortunate to get it.
Three to Five tackles as the MLB???
Seriously!!!
We'll miss [BLEEP]...
NH3...
LOL
Thomas had a good game. Did you watch the game or look at box score?
....box score, huh? Yeah I figured.
Yeah wish he would have had more tackles 10 yards downfield

i agree with you. the more experience he gets as the full time MLB the better he will get. I think he will be fine there for the rest of the season and makes me feel like we dont need to do anything crazy there next year.
plain and simple, bortles and the offense didnt do the defense any favors today. the defense otherwise looks like they can be extremely good.
edit:also me saying nothing crazy for next year doesnt mean i dont expect and hope our LB corp gets upgraded.
Actually I did hear his name a couple times before the interception. He is doing OK for a guy who never started in the middle before.
Thomas actually played very well, better in coverage than Poz

yep
He was solid today. I noticed maybe one or two run fits where it looked like he missed his assignment but that can be expected in his first start at MLB.
I didn't feel like there was a glaring hole on D which is good. I think he'll improve with time.

It will be interesting to bsee how much better he gets during the second half of the season.
Too bad he didn't get torched by a tight end.

Thomas had a "Good Game" you say? In the middle of the third qtr. his stats were posted on the Jumbotron... 3 tackles and 2 assists. Call me spoiled but [BLEEP] would have this total within the first 9 mins. of the game...
I don'd doubt that he'll progress but we today took a step backwards at the MLB position...
Anyone w/vision could see that...
NH3...
You do realize they had 4 yards of offense the first half?
Finished getting dominated in TOP...
So can't really judge thomas..

So you just look at the stats and nothing else...
Guess since Branch and Poz were out, we need someone new to complain about on defense.
JT played well in my eyes. The defense as a whole played well.

Did you even watch the game? Thomas played just as good as Poz has been playing, probably even better. The fact that you think he didn't play well because he didn't get 10+ tackles is ridiculous.
I understand some of your positions of Thomas getting better In The Future. I also understand that he is New To The MLB Position...
Compared to the previous play at the MLB position... Thomas was Pedestrian at Best. I too hope that he'll make strides at the position but I didn't see any instincts. I DIDN'T SEE HIM MAKING PLAYS BEHIND THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE.
So again "How Well Did He Play"???
NH3...
NH3, what do you expect of a young guy making his first career start at MLB? Don't you know we have two other linebackers on the field at the same time?
