McFadden looking strong for the Giants tonight!
- Thread starter IU Fan 1989
- Start date
Geez, 4 TFL. NFL record is 6. What a game for him.
He got a lot of love from the announcers, especially Al. Giants got killed on 3rd down - perhaps they should play Micah on 3rd downs and not take him out. He is relentless and showed well covering the backs and tight ends.
Amazing to see an NFL team blitz that much . . . really unusual at that level. It worked for awhile, but that team has problems. Great game for MM. As I’ve mentioned previously, his family sat near us during much of his IU days, and it was fun to see and interact a bit with them. Very nice people.
McFadden, Cam Jones and Casey are the best linebackers IU has had in DECADES. Credit to Tom Allen for their success.
This cannot be correct?? I could believe the sack record for a game is 6 although I though it was 7.
Absolutely
MM has done what most of us expected. Much more than a "special teams" guy. in the NFL
He had a nice PBU as well. He is fun to watch - should have a nice NFL career.
Don't forget Tegray Scales.
Was here before Allen, but really came alive in his last two years under him in 16 and 17.
2 TOs Fum recovery and INT.
7 Tackles
Too bad Giants ran out of time

And somebody on this board predicted he would be a "scrub" with playing time limited to special teams
I don't think (hope) that wasn't me!
I'll own up to it though. I am surprised he's already a starter in the NFL. He was used so much at IU as a blitzing LB and coverage wasn't his strongest suit in spite of good athleticism, I wouldn't have pegged him to be THIS much of a contributor. I would've figured he'd have been more situational or scheme-fit then anything.
Now, all I want is for him to stay healthy for the next 2 1/2 years so he can get paid once his rookie deal expires.
The Giants screwed themselves with that play at the end of the first half. But it was a lot of fun watching MM play.
