I was largely right. Guy blew away my (and most everyone elses) expectations.


And now he and OBS are expected starters. hoo-yah

Apart from he has a brain; what exactly did you get right? ;)

The D struggled early with the D, took time for Hortons system to sink in. Acho was a standout because hes smarter than most players. And now this year he and OBS are the bookends.

Only thing I was wrong about was rarely seeing him last year, but he played his way into playing time. Guy was one of the best rookie pass rushers. Who saw that coming.

Acho had 8 sacks both in 2009 and 2010 at Texas with not much help from the line upfront. I saw his pass rushing ability as a high possibility, as many I'm sure who actually watched him play full games during his career at UT (which included scouts from the Arizona Cardinals). As I said, Acho was a steal in the draft and one of those cases where a team doing poorly hid his value
