I thought the most impressive player in blue on the field last night was our rookie Butler.
He played a good part of the game and when he was on the field he was all over making plays like a Mayo Jr
He almost made a big play on the Bengals deep in our red zone when he nearly created a turnover from a bad short pass from Palmer, He flew from nowhere to make a tackle on the Cincy RB who was on his way to scoring a TD before Butler came out of nowhere to tackle him in the legs (reminded me a little of Watson's tackle of Champ in the 2005 Denver NE game) and he was right up there in the front when it came to making a play on STs
This was one game and it was mainly against Cincy scrubs,nonetheless it was the best performance of any player last night and I think if he does something similar again next week,we could be looking at Butler stealing the starting job from Springs and Wilhite on the one side of the CB position.
