Had 14 tackles, 9 of them solo. He was all over the field. I remember people commenting that he was too small for the NFL.

No, that's not what he does....but thanks for attempting to **** on another WVU player.He is still small for an NFL LB and I think he plays as a back up usually. At least that was what he did last season, but he's been a competent enough player to stick around on the roster.

EDIT: He starts, and is the team's leading tackler. Educate yourself before looking like a hater.
But that's what keeps 75% of the posters busy here.maybe we can not be so sensitive and jump to assigning motives when the reality of the situation is presented.
You mean too sensitive that when someone posts a positive thread about a former WVU great in the NFL, that someone gets on here to say they aren't a starter and are undersized???? Instead of saying POSITIVE things? Yeah, is that what you mean?Now that I've been "educated" and proved everything I said was right, maybe we can not be so sensitive and jump to assigning motives when the reality of the situation is presented.

STFU hater..... those tackle numbers are inflated by an overall bad defense that can't get off the field. Easier to get tackles when the defense has to play more snaps per opponents' drives.
So as you can see, I am not shitting on Long. And I'm not being negative toward him by recognizing that those things you remember are true.
STFU hater.
Instead of talking good about Long, all you have done is made excuses as to why he is the team's leading tackler, or how he wasn't a starter. That's a H-A-T-E-R.The worse defensive units in the NFL have the most tackles. Unless your defense is giving up nothing but huge plays for touchdowns, the defenses that allow sustained drives by the opposing offense will have a greater number of tackles. The defense that keeps the opposing offense from running more plays will have less opportunities to make tackles. I never said that fact diminishes the individual player that is making those tackles. For example, Ray Lewis didn't always lead the league in tackles when the Ravens had a good defensive season. He did during a season where they were 8-8 and the defense as a whole was not as good. Neither case makes him less of a great player. But he also plays the position in the defense that is MEANT to get the most opportunities for tackles.
Either way, stop being a dick by just yelling and calling me a hater. You were the one who snidely implied that anyone who said Long was undersized for the position was widely off base because of one good performance as starter. You then stated facts that were presented were wrong in your ignorance and now you are just saving face by talking ****.

EDIT: I went back and looked, not once did you say he was playing great.
Go back and look retard, you NEVER SAID HE HAD A GREAT GAME. Instead, you said he wasn't a starter, he only makes tackles because his team's defense sucks, and that he's a quality "backup". You aren't a "rose tinted homer", that's for damn sure. When a WVU player has a good game in the NFL, you **** on them.I'm the hater for knowing more about the guy's career and performance than you? You just came in after this one game and didn't even know he was starting for an injured player. Also I said he had a hell of a game. All I did was note that your remark that some people thought he was too small for the NFL was accurate and that those people had merit in that assessment. He is a good player and maybe he has turned the corner on possibly being a starter, but one game does not a starter make. Being realistic does not make a hater, it's just choosing to be an objective fan over a rose tinted homer.

That's a FACT, so STFU.
HATER.
But that's what keeps 75% of the posters busy here.
Could you show me where you said he had a "hell of a game"?First, only one of is coming off as an overly emotionally and intellectually stunted person and that's certainly you. I did look back and even quoted what I said and you again double down on being wrong just like you did when I confirmed Long was not the regular starter for the Titans. I said Long is a good and competent player. I said he had a hell of a game. I also said his size is a detriment to his chances of being an every down starter in the NFL and his career so far has shown that.
But I'll stop trying to use logic and adult language since your responses clearly prove you to be an easily butt hurt twerp. So I'll use the easy words a knuckle dragging internet tough talker can understand ... **** off.
Could you show me where you said he had a "hell of a game"?
EDIT: I found that statement. Never mind. I'll apologize for that, but still will claim that you HATE on WVU success in the NFL. That's a fact by you pointing out all of Long's negatives.
