jason Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bears4Ever_34 Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Hochuli 3:16 Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 Tillman is a class act and a true Bear, I hope he retires wth the Bears.... Tillman is actually a jacka** to the media, however, I agree: I love his ability and he's always been underrated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DABEARSDABOMB Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madlithuanian Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 But can we get him some longer cleats! he was sliding all over the field yesterday! Kudos to peanut! That a stripper!

lemonej Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemonej Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
