Had a poor night by his standards but this goal was freakish.

Good goal but some of his efforts were embarrassing

Agree. It's starting to look like he is getting lazy. Many times over the last few weeks he has tried half assed tackles and just not chased down players.....I don't recall ever thinking this of him....??!!

That goal was pure luck. If he wasn't pushed he probably would have missed.
