isn't looking quite as obvious today? Yesterday people commenting on Karlos failing to get LJ down on that pass play said "Ray Lewis would have levelled him there."

I assume you all saw Tatum Bell just completely overpower Lewis and drag him 6 yards for a first down on 3rd and 9 in a play that won the game for Denver?

Not excusing Dansby just as I was watching the game last night that immediately popped into my head.

Actually it was on LJ TD that Dansby was stiff armed to the ground. As a matter of leverage, LJ got his arm out before Dansby could get a good hold on him. Good play by LJ. If Dansby dives for his knees instead of trying to make the sure tackle up high, he might take him down. Woulda, coulda, shoulda...

Yeah if LJ hadn't have gotten that arm there first, he would have been brought down.
