I'm not even a massive Trevor Davis fan, but it seems like everyone is picking such a weird thing to be upset about -- especially after winning 2 games behind great special teams and defensive play while our offense looked anemic.
Outside of the slip up on one punt return (and let me remind you that we also blatantly held on the same play), I am not sure we blocked a single gunner all day. All of the kickoffs were unreturned touchbacks. He fair caught the ball. Even the booth was trying to push some sort of "almost fumble" agenda on a punt he caught where he got hit.
Why aren't people picking at, say, Lane Taylor for getting massacred in the 2nd straight game? Jimmy Graham for looking like he has never tried to block in his life (or the calls for asking him to do so)? Corey Linsley for chucking a ball into Rodgers' leg, or Jamal Williams for having no idea it even happened? You are going to get mad for a play that was going to come back for holding, and even then Trevor Davis took a helmet to helmet to cancel out that penalty. I don't get it. The vitriol doesn't match the impact.
