I've been one of his harshest critics.


I've had very little positive to say about him.


Let me be one of the first to say it.


In a terrible game, where it was obvious most of the team had given up.


In a season where he didn't start well, following a season where he missed more tackles than ANY other safety, and tool terrible angles, and was just plain bad...


Cyprien played hard. Cyprien played well.


I may have been a critic all year so far, but even I could see it.


Tonight, Cyprien played a fantastic game. He played with more heart than anyone else on D. He played like every play mattered.


I've hated on him all year, but tonight, I salute Cyp.


Additionally, I salute both Hurns and Walters for their reactions after their touchdowns. Zero celebration. Yes. We scored. We are losing badly. Here's the ball ref. Nothing to be happy about here.


But still.... After being one of his loudest critics... Good on ya Cyp.
