Take a Bow Tre'

[MarlinTheMagician]

Tre White had himself a game.  Crazy pick (even though it didn't really enhance field position), and a touchdown saving, picture-perfect play in the end zone against Hollins.  Hollins catches that, we have a different game.  Well done Mr. White!

[Flip Johnson]

It was a nice day for the 2017 draft class.

[SageAgainstTheMachine]

He’s going to make a game saving play in the playoffs.  I believe he has one more in him.

[Billzgobowlin]

First half I was worried about not having Benford but guys definitely stepped up

[Ohiostyle]

Teams are still trying him, but succeeding less. Always a good day when the Bill's win and Tre plays well!

The geriatric ward stepped up today: Poyer, Tre, and Milano all had big contributions. Now it's time for the youngsters to match them. Then we'll get places. 

[newcam2012]

Tre is certainly playing a lot better the last few games. Very serviceable and more. Get Benford back and Max continues to get reps and improve. Not a bad CB room. I'm concerned about T Johnson though. He's looking pretty rough. 

[Mango]

Tre has a had an overall decent to good season as CB2, with a couple of bad plays in tough situations.

 

The clamoring that he's amongst the worst players on the team is just the same people parroting other peoples trash.

 

But yes. He had a good day at the office.

[That's No Moon]

We found a WR he can run with. 

[Steptide]

The fact that we only saw Hairston involved on a few plays is good Imo. Tre had a good day. Last year he was getting killed on plays, hence why he moved around to a couple different teams. Good to see him playing well

[cage]

He was ON last week as well!

[Sierra Foothills]

This might as well be in the same topic as the "Matt Milano is not washed up" one.

 

As I said at points during the season, the stench of Bernard and Rapp made everyone on the defense look bad.

 

There was never a time when White or Milano were playing poorly.

Tre definitely seems on an uptrend to me.  Maybe the injury in the preseason was limiting him until recent weeks.  He is looking better and better.  Same as Milano.  Those guys are older, but not really old.  Plenty young enough to be high caliber contributors, depending on the toll the injuries have taken.

I think Hairston and AJE were the main reasons for that 60ish yard TD run they had.  Bishop maybe some too.  From the one replay you see AJE and Hairston way over commit and loose contain.

To be fair, he was pretty bad early in the season. Teams were absolutely targeting him.

Do you even watch the games? How can you say that they never played poorly. That's a really surprising statement. I'll just leave it at that.

What is impressive is that Tre has been playing well in recent weeks with fairly heavy snap counts. When Max came back they reduced his snap counts and his play improved. But he logged all 52 defensive snaps in week 15 and he played about 80-90% the past few weeks. Hopefully they can keep him healthy and reduce his snaps a bit when Benford gets back so he’s able to play well in the playoffs

Tre struggles with speed burners but he can still ball!

[CSBill]

I have been pretty hard on Tre this year, especially earlier in the year. But he has come around lately, and yesterday may have been his best game of the year.

He still sucks. But I’ll take any INT he can luck himself into.
