50 reminded me of this: Largent's I'm going to kill you face compared to the WR oh crap this isn't going to end well face. Hope #50 plays injury free this year. 2012 with a healthy knee he played his way into the starter role. Ended up with 61 tackles, 9.5 TFL, 6.5 sacks, 2 INT and 1 FF. Would love to see that kind of production in '14.
