Tar Heels In The NFL: Week 15

Posted Dec 18, 2013
Earlier this month, an ESPN.com article said the Broncos would need some players to step up, such as Sylvester Williams. On Thursday night, Williams had, by far, his best performance in his rookie season, racking up five tackles and a sack. Quinton Coples was in Charlotte Sunday, just a few hours away from Chapel Hill. He didn't disappoint in his return, posting five tackles and one big sack of Cam Newton. (GoHeels.com)
