After hearing Thomas interview I feel great about this team

I don't accept that as a fact to face. The OP has it right. Does that mean we are not susceptible to the big play? No. But as of last week FT had already broken up 12 passes. Our front 4 only got 1 sack. Does that mean that they are toast? I say no. I think that as the front four go so do the back 7. It really does all start up front.

itz a difference between holding a guy for a few seconds and then the line gets absolutely no push and your CB just getting absolutely BEATEN! guys are just blowing by thomas. i like fred but teams know they can get open and healthy on him. on all three long balls yesterday he was way behind. on the one sideline route he had perfect technique but did not follow it up when he let chad go. palmer made a good read and fred got caught looking back without feeling the WR.
those are the type of big plays we absolutely cannot afford to give up.
