Ok, there's been alot of talk about Bigby this summer. He hasn't "flashed," he hasn't made plays. People are saying that he's not the same after his ankle injury. Maybe he hasn't come back from it.
Bigby said before camp that his ankle was much worse than it was reported to be. So, is that the reason he hasn't made his usual big hits or interceptions?
I think it might be that they weren't showing all of the defense. According to Capers, they were only running about a third of all their stuff in the preseason games. So, are we gonna see Bigby light it up when the season starts for real?
I think he'll be fine. Dunno if he'll be up to Palomalu's level, but I think he'll be very good. He'll blitz effectively too. Not to jinx him like I did Brohm, though.

i don't think he's one of our better players. I think what we're seeing now is the "as usual", and the big plays of a season and a half ago were the anomaly. I don't mean to paint a grim picture, but I just think he was playing out his ass back then, and he's come down to earth. I also don't think Collins is really that good either... too many communication breakdowns, too many blown coverages, too many disappearing acts. I do like his gawdy interception numbers, but there's a whole lot more to the game than that.

I have to agree with you on this Bozz, Bigby never really did much but make big hits and i remember correctly he also had alot of personal fouls called on him in his so called good year. Both Safetys seem to blow alot of coverages and be in the wrong spot.
