Odd man out in secondary

[Scott Campbell]

I voted for Rouse.

[Freak Out]

This place is very hostile to off-the-track thinking. Stifling.

......I'll make it $200. Anyone?

....I'll take Rouse for $200 Alex.

[gbpackfan]

Christ.

Getting the best players on the field is a legitimate objective.

I can't even deal with your ridiculous accusations.

Well if you put it that way, why didn't you include Favre and Driver in the poll? Your question doesn't work. Bush can not be replaced by any of the other players on your poll. I have to agree with Harlan on this one.

I'll put down $500 on Stifling to win, too...

You might be right. Probably you are right. But I'm not convinced that Collins couldn't play nickle. Ya, the poll is slightly fishy, but choosing the weakest player is interesting.

I think somebody who attends the games regularly could say a lot more about Collins coverage skills than a tv viewer. We don't see much of the secondary on tv. Just the prancing and arm-waving at the end.

I think Kampmann would be an awesome shutdown corner.
:P

That brings a question to mind. When the hell are we going to get the full view option with our digital TV? In this day and age we should be able to pull up any camera just like the producer.

Well..we've seen him get one hell of a bump at the line!

That would be cool. I'd also like to be able to remove all the distracting crap off the screen, too. But I suppose it is their production. They need more views of the whole field, that's for sure. Or maybe I just need season tickets.

Season tickets would be nice...but commuting from Anchorage to GB for every home game is not something I've budgeted for....yet.

[gbpackfan]

Well, I have season tickets and I go to every game. Even watching the game live, it's hard to tell. Playing bump and run coverage on a WR is a lot different then covering deep or picking up a man in zone coverage. The only way we would really know is if he played a game at CB.

Do they ask the nickle to play bump and run? I'm not sure that the skills for playing nickle are that different than free safety. A bit more man-on-man, but not typically against the fastest reciever. Collins is no slow poke.

And I agree we'd have to see to know. The coaches know without seeing a game, I suspect. Collins at nickle may be a ridiculous idea - or a reasonable one.

[mraynrand]

I'd rather have a corner covering WRs than a S, so Bush has to be in the game for dime situations.

Harvey, my hypothetical question was to not think this hard

*SIGH*

[ND72]

not to side track, but did anyone else see Patrick Dendy getting worked on sunday by our WR's?

[RashanGary]

I voted Rouse, but if he plays a great game against Detroit and Dallas, I'll be open to reconsidering in place of Collins.

I like Jarrett Bush. I think he might be part one of the two part problem, that is replacing both Chuck and Al within 2-3 years.

I love Atari Bigby but he does do a few things wrong in coverage. Hopefully he can get some of his technique fixed.

Collins is a solid player. I acctually trust him back there and he is a good tackler. If Rouse does all that and gets INT's too, I'm all for the change.
