And? It's a 10 yard run if Thornhill makes a tackle that a credible safety makes 9 times out of 10. Or at least slows the goddamn guy down enough to allow pursuit. Should we bury Thornhill for Lucas? Sorensen?
The previous 3 weeks were some of the best football of his career. He got sealed off because he overpursued and Jones bit on the boot action (weirdly). A whole lot of guys dicked up on that play.
That doesn't mean you just ditch the guy on your LB corps who's most suited to deal with the one thing they do well.
