Sanders lacks size, but hits with authority and make plays. I remember the colts picked Sanders with their 1st pick years ago. Donte Whitner almost reminds me of him. I hope Whitner pays off like Sanders has for the colts.

Re: Bob Sanders
Yeah, Bob Sanders is a beast. He's from Erie, PA so I watched him alot in Iowa. I just wished he would have been around for the Bills to scoop him up a couple of years ago. I really thought that he should have beenMVP. Forced Fumble and an INT, plus a couple of big tackles.

You saw the difference that a good SS vs a so-so can make for teams that play a Tampa 2 defense in this game: Sanders with his FF, INT and key stops in run support, etc. vs the Bears' SS (who was replacing Mike Brown) who blew the coverage on the Wayne TD and was basically a non-factor, particularly in run support. The Bills obviously expect--and really need--Whitner to be the kind of safety that Sanders is for the Colts. The Colts' defense is an entirely different and much better unit when Sanders and MLB Gary Brackett are healthy enough to play for them, as they were in the playoffs and SB.Those who do not learn from the past are doomed to repeat it. And, thus it was that they surrendered their freedom; not with a bang, but without even a whimper.

Re: Bob Sanders
He is like a mini linebacker a sideline to sideline turf terrorists. They missed him when he was hurt.I'm your huckleberry.

Whitner is not and will never be Bob Sanders.
I'll never forget the quote of Kirk Ferentz after Bob stepped on the field as a Freshman.
Paraphrasing he said it was like being in a street fight and having your big brother show up."Well I drink too much and get punched in the head by fighters for fun, so my memory isn't so great." -OpIv37

I saw him out w/ one of my cousins after he was drafted by the Colts and while he was still holding out (as a second round pick?!!). I'm glad he's done so well, for my hometown's sake.

Re: Bob Sanders
Originally posted by DraftBoyWhat? Sanders and Whitner play with almost an exact same style except Bob Sanders is too reckless in his play, which is why he cant make it through a full seaosn. They both hit like crazy, they are both good in coverage, and they both play the run well. There are plenty of similarities, just recklessness is the real difference.

Re: Bob Sanders
I'm still just not totally sold on Whitner yet. I only saw him play once in college so I really don't know what to expect from the guy. But watching him this season he doesn't look like a ball hawking safety that will make huge plays happen. He doesn't seem to be that great of a hitter, although he does throw his body at a guy when another guy already has him in his arms, and he missed quite a few tackles this year, I counted five in one game.
Not saying I'm down on him (he is after all, only a rookie), I am just unsure of what to expect.
