I personally never want to see Aldon in coverage, I dont trust him at all.

i trust him in the flat he's athletic enough, and honestly its the next step for him
however he can take that next step in the offseason while touring with the lombardi trophy and try it out next year

I think thats the only time in the game he actually dropped back.

they have no choice. but i think the last 2 weeks had more to do with the qb's

clemons usually gets the ball out very fast.

and RW is just so mobile aldon beats his man he just runs across the field or steps up.

i don't see too many playoff qb's who will be able to get away from him other than RW and that won't even be consistent.

He hasn't been getting the sacks the last 2 weeks, but he's still getting lots of hits and hurries, which are nearly as good.

just him being there frees up justin to create havoc plus the other guys on the line from ray to dorsey have been more than solid in my opinion

For being out of football for 5 weeks, he looks pretty dam good from the cheap seats.

This guy still has 8.5 sacks. Crazy lol. Just tells you how good he is.

Cams got pretty good pocket mobility too. Aldon seems so much faster off the line now... Lemon looked good, but noticeable let down from Aldon.. I think we need to resign him soon.

And hes only 23. If he keeps his current pace, he will break Bruce Smith's record of 200.0 career sacks by age 34...

Aldon gonna tear it up against the Falcons. He loves those Monday Night games in candlestick. My prediction, 3.5 sacks, 5 hurries and 1 hit. 6 tackles.

Aldon does play pretty good in prime time games other than Seattle. Hopefully another big outing.
