People are losing their minds over him and its just in comparison to the D this year. Dougherty writes that he was on the field for the Atlanta game, like the other three years of disaster happened on someone else's watch.
Packers needed him to play hybrid S/CB. He was the best they had at it.
They didn't need him at safety once they had Dix.
Losing stinks mostly because people get dumb second guessing why. He had five interceptions. If he repeats the effort like Hayward, then hats off. But its one year for a player that had trouble breaking into the starting lineup.
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
Ted is paid to know Hayward was as good as he is. He had him up close and personal. But Dom likes his man coverage so much. It wasn’t quite the right fit. I don’t know exactly what happened there, but it’s too bad, for sure. TT is not perfect. He’s probably the best or near, but not perfect
Its price. Everyone saw him play pretty well a year after the injury. He wasn't the same dynamic player, but he was still good. He could also play Zone.
Identifying Heyward wasn't the problem. It was projecting him to start ahead of the younger ones.
Dougherty writes you need more than 3 CBs. Well no shite Pete, thanks for that bit of 1994 wisdom. But how many teams pay the 3rd corner $5 mil per year?
