Seahawks FS Earl Thomas says the defense loves being the “Bully”
Seattle free safety Earl Thomas likes it that some people think the Legion of Boom Seahawks secondary has a bully mentality.
“I think we can bully whoever we want to bully,” Thomas said. “It’s about us. It’s about a mindset. When you have a mindset of you’re not going to let anything get in your way, you’re determined. You just step over and keep going.”
Thomas has been playing like an MVP and was voted in the Pro Bowl this year.
“Everything in my mind is about being the best to ever do it,” Thomas said. “Everything is about separating myself from every defensive player in the league. So you look at all the things you have to do. You have to be a great tackler when you tackle somebody in this defense. That’s why I like being the only guy back there.”
This week the Hawks better hope they can stop the passing attack of Kaepernick and company. With Crabtree, Davis and Boldin the Niners have not lost.
