His run back got us just close enough to kick the winner.  I remember how he scared Todd Pinkston so badly that Pinkston kept dropping perfect throws from McNabb.  Some people looked down on it but I got a kick out of how he pasted that punter in the pro-bowl.  It was the last football game of the year; it was nice that at least one player still wanted to play full contact football. I loved how you could always tell when he was the tackler without even looking at the jersey number.  You tell it was him just by the way people went down when he hit them.  I remember the hits.  The way he could make someone look like they hit a brick wall.  I remember his speed and the ferocity he played with.  I remember how other teams would play differently when he was in the game.  He gave the defense some swagger and an identity.  I still don't want to accept that he's gone. I wish there was more we could do to help the family and to help our team get past this tragedy.    I remember how he played a part in returning that blocked field goal in that incredible, fairy-tale-like ending to that Dallas game in Washington last year.
