Yea you're right, he goes from recording another very solid 120 plus tackle season last year to all of a sudden a scrub after the first two games this year. Sure..

I'd love for you to show me how im backpedaling on Newman. I said im glad he's back, he's a solid corner, but he's not elite at all. Please show me where i've said anything different, thanks. Im saying Ball played well because he's not expected to be a starter right now and yet he's being...

When they are in man coverage, you don't think corners have a little leeway as to what they want to try to do with their man, or if they want to lineup 5 yards off him or right up against the LOS based on what they think he's trying to do? I see CB's creeping up and backing off a few yards every...

This is all semantics, you said he was excellent, i said the definition of excellence must have been watered down to call him that. There's nothing concrete to debate here.

Im saying Ball has held his own in 2 games where he had to play alot so far this season, and pointing out that Newman is a solid, though not an elite CB. Both pretty rational stances if you ask me, but of course you're the expert here, right bud? lol.. please.

Also, im pretty sure when you're in man coverage, coaches don't tell you how far off the receiver you HAVE to be. You think the coaches were telling our most athletic DB, "Hey T New.. start 10 yards off the LOS every play. What? Yea, i know you've been giving up catches underneath and big first...

I don't have a beef with him. I don't even know him. I said, i think he's a solid corner.. but he's not elite. He gives up alot of catches underneath, just like we're all criticizing Ball for right now. Is he an upgrade for our secondary? No doubt. Are we getting back an all pro? Hell no.

We won't lose to Detroit by double digits, relax. I do think Newman is solid corner, i don't think he's elite though. He gives up alot of receptions and first downs underneath, and to this day, with his athleticism i still don't know why he starts every play 10 yards off the ball.

Couldn't*

I give a shit.. because i said he only gave up a few receptions and all for short yardage.. so i thought he held his own, along with forcing the turnover. You had to jump in with your "Alan Balls iz garbges" bs, so i asked just how bad do you think he actually did, and you respond with "who...

Arn't you a comedian? Isn't using other's material a no-no in your line of work?

How many receptions and yards against did he give up?

I guess the definition of excellence has fallen off lately..

Serious.

Why not just get rid of half the team while we're at it.. Bradie James? Really? lol He must have fucked half your mommas in the offseason for the hate he is getting this year.

I notice you continue to ignore the actual substance of the post, rather focusing on the exaggeration to try and make the point more clear. Can't say im suprised..

McCann is cut.

Again, he was playing the slot for alot of the game against the Niners, which is the hardest position to defend, and all he really gavve up were a few short passes. Nothing big, and also got a turnover that led us to an easy score. He's more than held his own against the Jets and the Niners...

What's with so much hate on Ball after two solid performances to start the season? Damn you guys sure hold a grudge. I actually doubt Ball will see less playing time with Newman back. He was playing the slot position against the Niners, which is the toughest to defend, so its obvious they have...

Actually thought Ball and Walker played a solid game for us.
