Reminds me a lot of (from what I remember at least) Ronde Barber. He baits quarterbacks big time and isn't scared to tackle. Definitely an elite zone corner with amazing ball skills. And that doesn't solely speak to the interceptions but his ability to break up passes. Looks like a great teammate to have too despite the scuffle with Cam in training camp. Always competing and someone whose ecstatic to be playing the game at a high level. Go back and look at his interview with Gruden. He seems like an awesome dude.
Just take the homer glasses off and see it for what it is. You're in denial if you can honestly say that he has "shut down" those guys I listed without a lot of luck being involved.
Well. He got his bell rung and he hasn't passed protocol. Also. The NFL is a meat market and the players are essentially cattle. There you go.
He's got so much luck. Every week, too! Weird, isn't it? How come bad corners don't have any luck? And it's funny how this luck thing only works one way. Revis is lucky if the QB doesn't put the ball where only the receiver can get it. But the WR is never lucky if the QB throws a perfect pass where only the receiver can get it. That's to be expected I guess. Revis STILL has to make a play there, right? That just makes no sense. Is Norman just solid because Dez was wide open downfield when Romo overthrew him? You really have a short memory if you think Revis has never allowed anybody to catch a ball on him. And you are really delusional if you think the rest of the elite cornerbacks don't get beat every once in a while. Especially when they're being asked to cover Pro Bowl type receivers each week.
Dez maybe had a step on him and it was a perfect pass. Not the 3-5 yards Hopkins had on 2 diff occasions, Cooper and Watkins on another occasion just to name a few. Just take your Revis colored glasses off and see it for what it is. The only short term memory here is what your looking at if you can honestly see that Revis should of been beat for at least 6 tds this year. In Revis prime, no matter how fast the receiver was, he was never getting torched deep like he is this year by far on so many occasions. Maybe once a year if that....
