I don't think it has to do with the speed of a receiver versus a defensive end. I think what was impressive about it is that he was fighting with the offensive tackle a few seconds earlier to get to the quarterback, disengaged from him and then sprints 30 yards downfield to make a tackle. Yes the receiver had stopped and was changing directions, but it was impressive in that it showed the heart and drive of Biermann to even attempt to make the play. It was just an exclamation point on his career. That's all. We saw him play with that kind of drive all of his career and that play was icing on the cake for us.
Anyways, I am leaning towards going. I always have a hard time saying no to prime rib.
