Nick Anderson

You can kind of lower the boom, lower the shoulder.

On the flip side, if you're taking a blitzing linebacker like a Nick Anderson, who's just a ball of muscle or a big defensive end, that's going to wear you down.

So yeah, that for sure.

You've got to be a different type of breed, I think, to really get out there and embrace the block in the way some of these running backs do because it's a grind.

I'll say you're my focus player of the week.

And then defensively, maybe Nick Anderson.

Okay.

Just because I look for him to have kind of a similar impact that he did in the Toronto game where it's like he blows the run game up early and kind of takes it out for them.

We would try and keep it.

Yeah.

Like I'm trying to say, like, I'm sure there's a team with like a real good linebacking core or something where maybe like, but even though like the linebackers are like, it's Joel DeBlanco, Nick Anderson and Cordell Jackson or Kenny Logan.

Like, you know what I mean? So.

Just one specific game.

What I do want to give a shout out to is Nick Anderson because he single-handedly really, he had four tackles, three TFLs.

He, in a lot of ways, was the reason they gave up the running game because he was just getting in there for TFLs, TFL after TFL after TFL.

Now, the fact that they aired it out and it went downfield so frequently kind of took him out of the game stashy-wise.

So it was lots of fun.

Getting into the game, Nick Anderson, he got the action started.

He had an interception early on, broken up by Tyrell Ford.

Unfortunately, the Elks couldn't do really much after that.

Or.

Nick Anderson tackles, who was leading tackler this last game.

Yes.

Yes,

... potential there

... you know, now that I remember the last game there, Nick Anderson did come off with a wrist injury.

Yep.

Right? They had the, the training staff come out.

There's interceptions.

You know, Nick Anderson had one.

Ford had a huge one.

But what about Hubert's blocked punt in the end zone and then he recovers it? I was watching the si- Like, there's just certain touchdowns by certain guys that really seem to just, you know, get everybody more amped up.

He's really good and, um, so it, it's gonna be an awesome challenge.

We're really excited for it.

You play right beside him and, you know, I spoke to Nick Anderson last week, and he feels like, you know, his game's getting back to where he wanted it to be k- you know, he's banged up last year, came and got banged up again this year.

And you know, we saw the game in Labor Day where he had the 12 tackles with, all around the field, another-
