September 19, 201015 yr comment_82756 Some people are just capable of doing something amazing in their lives. Some run, sing, play the piano, etc. Idiot savant stuff. Tillman has been able to strip a ball since, I suspect, birth. I can picture it now... His big brother comes up, grabs a toy from Tillman. P-Nut calmly tracks his brother down from behind, and rips the ball clean. Report

September 19, 201015 yr comment_82777 Now if he can stop slipping every time a receiver comes out of his break I'd be a lot more comfortable. But yes, he is incredible at getting the ball out. Report

September 20, 201015 yr comment_82804 I've never had that perception of Tillman. He's always came off as class and a hard worker. He's not the player he once was, but he's truly tremendous at stripping the ball and is a very "heady" player. Report
September 20, 201015 yr comment_82813 But can we get him some longer cleats! he was sliding all over the field yesterday! Kudos to peanut! That a stripper!

September 21, 201015 yr comment_82840 Upon further review Tillman had a hand in 2 of the turnovers and DJ Moore is the love child of Nate Vasher and Mike Brown. His hands and tackling reminds me of both guys. Report
September 21, 201015 yr comment_82841 Exactly! 2 words...longer cleats. I'm not sure but isn't that field turf? If so then longer cleats wouldn't help and maybe better balance and better play recognition would help in Tillman's case. Most of the time when DBs are slipping is because they are peeking in the backfield and react too late. Report
