I thought Margus was more aggressive today than ever before but he needs to learn how to keep his vision and maintain contain. But today he looked more like a football player than a track man playing football.

He did not play well in the Baylor game.

Margus is a beast, an amazing special teams player, and is a great athlete.

In big games, against good teams, he doesn't make his presence felt as a DE. Their RT was high calibur, and absolutely handled Margus today. With his size, he is a PERFECT contain end. As any of you could see, if you were remotely tuned into the game, we had ZERO contain after the first quarter.

He really brings so much to the table and is a great asset to this team, but this is the least effective defense line we have had since the 90's.

May be nitpicky... but, rather than celebrating every time he blocks a kick, I'd like to see him try to cover the ball and/or help our guys recover and advance it... the play isn't over and he's running to the sidelines celebrating.

Don't want to take away from what he's accomplished, but FINISH THE PLAY and then celebrate.

I had a chocolate sunday the other day that had a cherry that was a little too red, a chocolate sauce that was a shade to much to the milky side, the ice cream was the tiniest bit icy, oh, heck, I ate it anyway....but it was not perfect....it could have been better....for once I wish the darn thing could reach my own level of perfection!

He hurt his back and tried to play through it. There is a reason he only played on the FG block team against SFA. The guy had a good game yesterday against a first round tackle. Give it a rest, there enough to complain about with the team than to pick on one of our best players.

One guy who was really playing well in the First Q was Jagared Davis-made about 3 outstanding plays and was rising to the talent level of a good BCS team. Taylor Reed too. Then we had that disasterous drive where about 5 of our players were hurt. I know Davis and Reed returned-but they were limping. In the first Q they were chasing Manziel down-after that they couldn't catch him. The Defensive Game Plan was outstanding in First Q

If my Lions draft him I will be as happy as can be, I want to see him next to Vanden-Bosch, Fairley, and Suh... A D-Line of massive monsters...

In which non-big games against non-big teams has he made his presence felt as a DE? I can think of one.

That "unblockable" hype from before the season has been factually incorrect so far.
