MERGED-JT for Defensive Player of the Year

[SkapePhin]

JT can win Defensive Player of the Year with a big game vs the Jets on MNF!

All he needs now to go with his gaudy stats and game changing highlights is a big time showing on prime time exposure.. People have seen Urlacher and Merriman all year, but JT only got two shots to be seen so far, and those werent the games where he completely took over, although his presence was a big reason for our teams' success against Detroit.

I cant wait to see JT snap Penny in half live on MNF!

If he has a big game against the Jets on MNF then he will be a lock for defensive player of the year because of the national exposure.

Not only for JT..But if things go right..It could potentially be a big game for the Dolphins and their playoff hopes

 

[Se7eN]

he has to have a big game in the national spotlight even though he deserves it bc they'll give it to urlacher bc he's on the best defense which personally i think is bullcrap

 

[ILPhinFan88]

JT is playing like a madman, and the whole line is benifitting from it. :D

jt will get jerked bacause of our losing record which isn't fair.

 

[Dolfan5000]

9 turnovers forced and seven pass deflections, is this guy a DE/LB or a CB?

 

[ItsOurTime32]

great great point made here

thats what he has lacked other than a playoff team

 

[WestCKoastiN]

He sure can and he SURE WILL!!:dolphins::dolphins: GO PHINS GO JT!!

 

[SkapePhin]

jt will get jerked bacause of our losing record which isn't fair.

We can still finish with a winning record.

Not only for JT..But if things go right..It could potentially be a big game for the Dolphins and their playoff hopes

Lets just hope JT has a good game against the Jets on MNF, Urlacher was on MNF last night and they kept the camera on him half the damn game.
