He and Tommy Kelly have been great. Amazing how good they have been actually.

TEMPE, Ariz. -- Arizona Cardinals assistant coach Tom Pratt is a patient man.

He’s been waiting, along with the rest of the coaching staff, for the Frostee Rucker they thought they were signing as a free agent in 2013 to surface. His patience has paid off the past two games.

Rucker, a 31-year-old defensive end, had seven tackles, three sacks and a forced fumble.

Pratt, the Cardinals' 79-year-old pass rush specialty coach, has seen it coming. He saw Rucker’s good hands and quick feet. He saw the burst off the line of scrimmage. He saw how Rucker finished plays.

He saw glimpses, a few plays here, a few plays there. That’s why Pratt continued to wait.

When Frostee Rucker was a kid, this was the season to be miserable. His given first name brought out the natural jibes. Deck the halls? How about decking the kid with the big mouth.

"No, I didn't like it," Rucker said of the Christmas season. "Kids were the worst ones with the teasing. They used to get under my skin with the 'Frosty the Snowman' all the time."

Frostee grew -- he is now 6-foot-3, 280 -- and the taunting became muted. He is known as the Snowman in the Cardinals' locker room, and he embraces the nickname.

The Cardinals also know him as someone else -- Frostee the Sackman.

At age 31, Rucker is having what could be considered his best NFL season as an integral part of a defensive line that ranks No. 6 in the league against the run and has more sacks than teams such as Green Bay, San Francisco and Houston.

He has had a very good year, and has stepped up his game. I'm not ready to say he is better that Dockett though.
