Great guy. Great person. Just not a good football player.
Everyone is making excuses for Jiterrin' Jimmy, let's make excuses for Solly, too!

- it was his first game guys
- there was no preseason
- he's playing a new position
- the other team schemed against him
- he hurt his pinky toe in the first quarter

What else we got?

I wasn't going to let those TC reports get my hopes up. He's got to show it in the games and the game on Sunday was not a good beginning. Disrupting a screen is not enough.

Was Solly missing his Center and both starting receivers?? I'll agree it was his first game. But I disagree he's playing a new position, only thing he's doing now is concentrating on one position. And I think he goes up against enough O-lineman in practice that he doesn't need preseason.

How about his pinky toe? It could be seriously hindering his performance. I also heard they didn't have brioche buns for his burgers at lunch, we all know how Solly loves brioche. Definitely played a part in his lackluster performance.

Love me some brioche's, I'd be pissed too and wouldn't play well. What kind of burgers were they Wahlburgers??
Thomas is suck. He is already bust!!

Agree, but I'm still rooting for these guys. It's still early in the season, and I still have some hope left.
He did have one great play that I saw where he sniffed out a screen and broke up the pass

He's got the skillset, just lacks the consistency. I think it's all in his head or something. Being an undersized DT and an oversized DE might have something to do with it, but that shouldn't be a problem with his skillset. It just never came together.

This should probably be his last year here, unless he miraculously has a Armstead-like turnaround.
