Cromartie played lights out and for one game made me say Revis who? That one TD Moss had, Cromartie still had good coverage on him, it was just a terrific pass by Brett. Great game Cro, he was stride for stride with Moss the whole time. I hope Revis gets his feet under him quick b/c if we can get him and Cro playing great together than watch out!
Revis is NOT 100% yet. You can tell. He looked slightly slower and not as physical. Maybe he was being a little cautious, but he is not the reason we won today. Cromartie was. He really did play lights out. He basically gave up one pass through out the game. Moss had three other short passes, but Moss was handled man-to-man almost the entire game and to give up just one big play against Moss on great coverage means a lot.
Revis looked slightly rusty. When he doesn't own the world during a game he is having an off day. Thats how good he is. This tandem is the best in football. Can't wait for the top passing attack in the league next sunday - the Ravens handed the Jets the blueprint to blow them out.
When Percy Harvin Caught the ball for the second touchdown u could litteraly see him give up on trying to tackle him. Revis was like 3 feet away, Idk why revis didnt chase after him. Hopefully he straightens everything out.
Sometimes even perfect defense just isnt enough to stop a stellar offense. On the deep ball, Cro was in perfect position, got his head around, and was locked on to Moss, Revis circa 2009 couldnt have done it better, Favre's pass was simply picture perfect. Major props to Cro. He seems to do very well against Moss. Moss is not physical at the line, and can have his head messed with if you bump him at the line all day. Cro struggles with a Marshall because he is so physical and doesnt quit even if you beat him up.
velCro/alCrotraz was great today. Hall of Fame QB and Hall of Fame WR just made an amazing play on that TD.
Does anybody know what triggers the 3rd round pick we have to give up for Cro into becoming a 2nd next year?
Cro was great this game and I'd actually prefer to sign him over any of our other remaining FA to be. Hopefully the CBA doesn't get done and he's still a restricted FA. :smile:
Cromartie is so physically gifted. He's one of the few guys that can cover Moss when he goes deep. We still gotta see what happens against shifty wide receivers who don't continuously run streaks. Things are looking great so far.
I'm hoping somebody has the specifics. I want it to be more than just playing time cause we knew he was going to start. Hopefully something like 10 INTS and a trip to the Super Bowl.
I agree that Cro was all over Moss last night. I thought Moss got away with an awful lot of hand checking just before he reached out with his hands for the ball. On the TD play, Cro was right there but Moss lifted his left arm and pushed off Cromartie's hip to gain space to catch the ball. He does it all in one motion that it doesn't look like pushing off. He's mastered that. But hats off to Moss/Favre on that ball.
