Im giving the Soaring High award to Lofa Tatupu this week. Statistically he didn't do much, but overall he did what matters most: Be a leader. He clearly looked comfortable in his first game in a Seahawks uniform. Lofa was in around every play, and seemed to have his defense running with him. He reminded me of a LB version of Grant Wistrom, with the way he went about the game with a never-give-up-until-the-whistler-has-blown-attitude.
It was like watching a seasoned pro, seeing him fly from sidelines to sideline, leading a pursuit of Seahawks. It looked like he was teaching the VETERANS a few tricks. A lot of people were going on and on about how the defense was swarming with a good 8 or more players at the ball by the time the whistle blew the play over. Well, he seems to be the guy accountable for that. Its not every day you see a rookie in his first game fired up, leading a defense, showing off his instincts, and playing as hard as he did for the short amount he played.
Congratulations Lofa, you get to put this award next to your USC trophies (being the awards are on the same level ; ) )
PS: Like the picture I made?
Nice work, AyeDeePee. Very insightful. You seem to be able to perceive things on the field that most people miss.
