Been the best player in the secondary for sure. If he can keep this up the defense can be very good. Keep it going Ellis!

I must agree. I have slammed him pretty good here before, but he has truly looked good. Hope he can keep it up. Great overall day for the defense...and whattya know??? Merriweather actually held onto the ball...good sign!!

He has stepped up so far. In the first half when he was throwing hail marys to his midget receivers like it was a Han**** North Central High School I held my breath. Hobbs was there each time.

He's healthy for the first time in a while. If his groin was 85% last year we win the superbowl because he's all over the final td.

Hobbs has been playing lights out so far.

I do get nervous when I see him returning kicks, though. One bad hit and out secondary is in big trouble.

Hobbs has been playing very well. Meriweather is filthy.

Huh???? Hobbs will never be a top 5 corner......the guy gets burned several times a game and should only be in there for certain packages......

He was awesome today. The three corners have been about as good as we could have hoped thus far.

Did anyone notice Wilhite in on any plays? I'm assuming not.

It is no coincidence that Hobbs had a very good rookie season playing the left side. Declined when they swapped him to right side for Samuel who himself went from an average CB to a great CB after the switch. Now he is back on the left side and playing great again.

I always like Hobbs, but he has brought his game to a new level this year so far.
