I've noticed his hesitation to get his nose in the pile, but if he's an elite CB he can get away with it. I think he will get a little better as time goes on too. We were spoiled with Revis. He was the most dominant corner I've seen but he could also tackle. At least those few years he was one of the best corners ever.
It is absolutely insane how good this kid is in such a short period of time. Normally there is a learning curve and it takes some time, but holy f’ing shit man. We got a star — he’s generational
I saw a stat today from Peter King. In 40 man coverage reps Sauce has allowed one completion for 6 yards.
They'll not throw at him soon. His coverage was outstanding @ Green Bay. I've watched the entire game again this morning. We've still smashed them. In their own back yard. Nobody's dreaming it.
This is making me rethink my objection to taking him over a T at #4. Maybe Douglas and Saleh actually know more than I do!
I wanted Sauce at 4 the entire time, I’m so happy he is playing so well so fast. Even tho our Oline has some big problems, having him at CB has changed our entire team and how we play. We play with a fire and swag you can see now and I’m sure it’s because of him and DJ Reed prob the two best moves of the off-season by far
Don't downplay Reed on the other end... he's no cakewalk for any WR. We have one of the, if not the best trio of CB/Slot defenders in the league. Sauce, Reed, Carter II....& they're young.
I've been blown away by Sauce so far. If we can upgrade a safety or two next year we can have a seriously good defense.
I'd like to get a veteran safety with something left in the tank instead of looking in the draft if that's the case. Someone with creditability who can step in immediately would be so ideal. I think if the Jets defense continues to play well and finishes strong with our young talented core. We could definitely be an attractive landing spot for a veteran guy.
Remember in Revis' prime, when QB's were still trying to throw to their favorite guys? And Revis was sharing the exact same pixel space as the guy? And then finally they just stopped throwing near Revis. I'm not saying Sauce is Revis, but if you want to see Sauce defending passes, now's the time.
