Deone Walker Deflected the Ball on INT

[wppete]

Looks like rookie star Deon Walker deflected the ball on the Bernard interception.

Walker is looking good, no lie.

Walker started the game, didn't he? Did NOT expect such early returns tbh. Good for him and them and us!

He was on the field for the first play.  Man, if we hit on this kid, it’ll likely be a home run. 

[Walking Tall]

Very, very encouraging.

Not sure he tipped it, but McDermott and Tua both talked about Walker getting his hands up affecting the throw. So it was a big contribution on that play no matter what.

To me that video shows he tipped the ball slightly and affected the ball very so slightly towards Bernard. Either way it’s a phenomenal play by the rookie.

He did, just like last game vs Jets.

That swim forced a half-blind throw from a Tua in full retreat which Bernard was getting hands on regardless.

If the interior of walker-sanders-Oliver comes together and bosa stays healthy plus hoecht coming back…. 
 

it’d have me as optimistic as I’ve ever been about this team (even with my wr worries)

I want Hoecht to be taking some of Epenesa's snaps the minute he's allowed to.

Hoecht and Hairston are gonna be important pieces this year.

He can take all of his snaps for all I care.

What a steal in the draft!!

 

3 games into his career, and he's already making big plays.

 

His play was certainly noticeable today...keep it up, big man!!!
