I saw a report about us targeting Revis and Cro together. I think that is kind of an overreaction based on last years disaster though. as much as I love those guys and would love them back that would be too much invested at corner.
whoever is willing to waste milliners career putting him at nickle is dumb. we should bring in Cro as our #2 leave milliner at 1 unless he proves he can't play at that spot. I see a bright future in Milliner. He plays good man defense and was solid when healthy ending 2013 and the small showing in the preseason this year. mcdougle is also supposed to be a good man corner let HIM work for that nickle spot. We have Adams for depth, draft a corner or two for more and maybe sign another cheaper vet also
True...Remember when the Eagles dumped all their capspace on defensive guys that never worked out that one off-season? Nnamdi, Asante, etc..
If the Jets made that move the odds on this being a 2 year flame-filled regime go way up. Beyond way up, it's almost a certainty.
Boy, I'd kill to have Revis back. It was fun as hell watching him completely erase Doug Baldwin for the Superbowl and remembering the good times from when he was here. I still love the guy and the only reason he isn't still here is cause our stupid GMs and owner. Only way you were able to complete a pass on Revis was to use the ref to knock him out of the coverage. The good old times.
My honest feeling is Mac will be smart. He will use half of the cap this offseason and still keep space for next offseason when there could be alot of moving parts especially at the QB position if we dont address it this summer. I swear I do not want Geno Smith as our lead starting QB
Kyle Wilson is a player coaches like because he understands the scheme he just doesn't cover. It's not his skill set. He can tackle. He made the team every year but was never even considered as a starting cover corner. They chose an undrafted FA over him.
Dude, you are clueless to the extreme. There is a very good reason he isn't still here...he's a greedy bastard. Teams don't win SBs because of the CB position. He wants WAAAAYYY too much money. Did you see Revis get beat for a TD in the game. Did you see him holding? I thought not. You're so obviously in love with him that you can't see the realities of the game.
People wont like it but the Jets should build a team like the Giants did during their big runs. Defense that gets to the QB and get corners that can stick on level on both left and right side. Dee Millner has alot of growing up to do, McDougle I am sure will be hurt again.
There is a good reason he isn't still here, our idiot owner didn't want to pay our best player. It's not a surprise our franchise went into the tank when he left. Pats biggest acquistion was adding Darrelle Revis and went from losing in the conference championship game to winning the Super Bowl, obviously you don't win the SB solely because of your CB, but it is an extremely important position that deserves money invested in it. And I watched the game, saw the TD. The only reason Baldwin was open was cause the ref picked Revis off and knocked him off his coverage. When the refs didn't run picks for the Seahawks, Revis allowed 0 receptions and completely erased Doug Baldwin from the game.
Wilson doesn't have the skillset to be Public Safety on a college campus. The sooner we move on from him, the better off we'll be.
LOL Whatever. You don't pay a CB $16 million a year or more. That's ridiculous!!!! Everyone seems to understand that fact but you. In exchange for Revis, the Jets got Richardson. I'll take that trade every day and twice on Sunday. Erasing Doug Baldwin is no big feat. Revis didn't elevate the Pats into the SB. An overall better D, Brady, a relatively weak AFC, and avoiding major injuries did. No way the Pats should have won that game, and they didn't because of Revis shutting out Baldwin. Darrell Bevell cost the Seahawks that game. His play calling was on the level of Sparano, MM and Schottenheimer...AWFUL and way too conservative until the end when he tried to get really cute and called the worst play in the history of the game.
First off, our franchise went into the tank when Revis left because we were trying to rebuild, and trading him was 100% the correct decision. We ended up with one of the best young d-linemen in the entire league who is already playing at a borderline elite level. Most importantly, we didn't tie up $16 million in cap space. You're trying to paint a different picture because you want it to fit your narrative. Second... if Pete Carroll isn't an idiot, the Pats lose the Super Bowl and no one is even talking about how Revis made the Pats better. Revis would have had 0 effect on the outcome of the game. They didn't win it because of him... in fact he would have given up a TD in a loss which makes him part of the problem. You can blame the ref, but Baldwin was in front of him no matter what. Even with Revis holding him.
Erasing Baldwin is no big feat, but you then you look at the last play of that game and realize the reason the Seahawks are throwing to the 4th receiver rather than their best receiver (like New England was doing all game by going to Edelman who ate up the Seahawks secondary) is because of Revis. No doubt we got lucky we got Richardson for the pick we got from the Revis trade. Otherwise the trade would have been the dumbest trade in NFL history. Instead it turned out to be a good trade for us, but doesn't change much about Revis.
No it isn't. Wake up and join reality!! The ONLY reason the Seahawks threw the ball there was Bevell's (and Carroll's) stupidity. With Carroll at least, it was a temporary brain fart. Marshawn Lynch was a certain half yard. They also could have rolled out Wilson and he could have run it in. Robert Turpin was also an option. If I'm not mistaken, the Pats didn't stuff Lynch for no gain or a negative on any play in the game. Wilson had been iffy passing the ball. You don't pass it to anyone in that situation. You ram it down the Pats' throat.
1. And if John Harbaugh wasn't a dumbass the Pats wouldn't have even been the Super Bowl. I'm not exactly happy that the Pats won (I am happy Revis won, I love that dude, seeing him breakdown after the win almost made me cry) but ifs and buts don't change the fact that they did. It makes it more painful in fact. 2. Revis had a huge impact. Instead of throwing to their best WR, the Seahawks were throwing to the 4th receiver on that final play someone who is very mediocre and looking back it isn't a surprise he got beat to the ball on that pass by some rookie undrafted CB because he isn't a very good WR. Baldwin might not be a star but he is alreast a solid and proven NFL WR, if Revis doesn't take him out of the game maybe he is the one the Seahawks are throwing to there and maybe he catches that pass or at least doesn't let the CB get position and pick it off. So to say Revis didn't have an impact is laughable. Him shutting down their go to receiver certainly changed the Seahawks gameplan. Hell the Seahawks only had 12 completions. 3. I am certainly going to blame the ref, he blatantly knocked him off that coverage. There is nothing else to be said about that.
I'm not arguing against any of that. Anyone in their right mind knows that the Seahawks should have ran that ball. But since they passed, you know damn well Revis had an impact on that play. Hell it's not like Seattle needed a reason to hand the ball off to Lynch, but I'll add Revis shutting down Baldwin as another clear reason why they should have ran the ball.
