Goodbye Doughty, Hello Horton!

BleedBurgundy · 09-14-2008, 05:06 PM

So... I'm guessing this should be obvious, but we have a new starting SS now, right? Great game by Horton, an amazing debut.

2 ints and a fumble recovery, plus no obvious lapses in coverage = starter.

yes sir sorry doughty

jsarno · 09-14-2008, 05:12 PM

absolutely...horton has earned another start!

TheSmurfs22 · 09-14-2008, 05:12 PM

I like Doughty but I think Horton earned himself a starting job. He brings a toughness which you need to have back there. Well done Chris!!!!

Touch luck for Doughty, but the rook made a name out there for himself

DynamiteRave · 09-14-2008, 05:14 PM

I am 100% on the Horton train. There's an icy cold bench waiting for you Doughty.

Sean"Big Hurt"Taylor · 09-14-2008, 05:14 PM

Yeah I think we have our starting safety opposite of Landry.

RMSkins · 09-14-2008, 05:14 PM

He better be the starter. I have been advocating the replacement of Reed Doughty as long as I can remember and I said that Horton or Moore will eventually replace him and hopefully my prediction comes true.

No need to be nasty about it, Doughty will provide quality depth.

SFREDSKIN · 09-14-2008, 05:18 PM

I think he was picked and to sent to us by Sean Taylor, he's a playmaker, ballhawk and can hit. I can't wait to see until he polishes his game.

Oh no doubt. Doughty will be relegated to the role that he should be in which is a run stopping safety/special teams ace.

mlmpetert · 09-14-2008, 05:23 PM

A serious ballhawk!

Rhaamses · 09-14-2008, 05:27 PM

We have to take this for what it actually is. Horton is a rookie who played a great game. It appears that he understood what the game plan was, and brought some of his own attribute to the game today. It is also fair to note that NO did not have any game tape on the guy. We will have depth regardless, but this one game will probably not be enough got GB to to replace Doughty.

The Goat · 09-14-2008, 05:28 PM

Horton is the man. U gotta love his attitude back there.

Let's not go crazy, it was one game. I love the game he played, but every week is different in this league.
