Thornton isn't going anywhere. I think he's shown more in the games than the group think amongst the writers.
After watching him closely in this last game, Thornton was pretty awful. I thought Boyd played well. Pennel was solid, but had some shaky moments. Nobody else stood out among the young DTs.
