Hustle is the only word that comes to mind when I saw him last night. He was flying to the ball, pressuring the qb and providing good coverage over the middle. Even my wife said that guy is playing his heart out on the field. What a difference from Kyle Wilson, its night and day.
What was the knock on him again? He committed too many penalties for CLE? Well our whole team was like before Bowles came along.
Revis and Cro have to be in love with the fact that they no longer have Kyle Wilson giving up receptions with ease.
Makes you want to see even more of him. Just one complaint: No one should be wearing number 41 - it should be hanging on the wall.
The kid was impressive. Even the personal foul was a little suspect since the refs were calling everything.
guy is a player man. If our secondary can stay healthy that defense is going to continue to be very tough.
I was kind of surprised looking at the stats to see that he led the team in tackles last night. This is all making Rex's tenure here look pretty shabby as far as the CB position. Once Revis was gone he really struggled to find any capable talent back there and there were some gigantic whiffs (Wilson....). Bowles comes in and immediately plugs in a couple of new guys who look far better than any of the cannon fodder that Rex put out there. Of course having Revis and Cro back was part of it, but it really makes Rex's talent evaluation skills look terrible... especially when CB was supposed to be one of his specialties...
Skrine takes a lot of penalties. The out of bounds pull down was just stupid. That play is going to get called every day of the week and twice on Monday.
The Cro deal is an easy exit for the Jets whenever they want to do it. No dead money at all on the cap after this year. I wouldn't be surprised to see him go after the season.
Cro's contract is only gurrenteed this year (8mil). It's basically a one year deal. It's a great contract for us. Buster is that quick twitch athlete in the slot that we need to match up with Edelman. He is an eleite slot corner and thus far well worth the contract. Love this defense so far.
