I hope though that he puts his money where his mouth is this year, plays smart and kicks some ass though.

Re: Another D.Hall Thread.
checks the history bubba, i ALWAYS supported resigning carlos, and also said he was the best CB on the market for us when he left. he couldn't catch, but he could cover and tackle, so whatever.

Re: Another D.Hall Thread.
At this point, there's nothing new left to say about Hall, good, bad, ugly, or alien. This is a Redskins issue exclusively, and has been for quite some time.

Josh Wilson is our best CB.

Re: Another D.Hall Thread.
Is anyone else even close?
Hopefully Jackson continues to play well at safety, Thinking about this more, the Giants don't seem to value the secondary that much either, it's all about their front 7. I'm not saying we are anywhere close to that Front 7, but we aren't bad either. |

Re: Another D.Hall Thread.
The entire time D.Hall has played here, he's played with a make shift secondary either at the opposite corner or at safety. Not making excuses, I'm just saying.
And from what I saw of Asomugha last season, he wasn't all of that. In fact, he get dusted on more than few occasions. |

Re: Another D.Hall Thread.
sure, he gets burned, but it seems to usually be by an elite wr.
i'm glad hall is on the redskins, i'm a fan of his play. not a fan of his pay, i don't think he plays up to his contract

Re: Another D.Hall Thread.
I will say this, my misplaced passion for Hall is a classic example of how someone as brilliant as myself can be off once a year and forums like this help moderate my fandom.
Although I've been talked off the ledge, I still think Hall's better than 34 in the league! C'mon man! Don't make me started another D.Hall thread! |

Re: Another D.Hall Thread.
The problem I see at FS is his tackling, and nothing in pre-season really seemed to reduce that concern. If we are counting on him being that stopping point guy, we are in a world of hurt.

Re: Another D.Hall Thread.
I mentioned it and posted the stats in another thread, but Hall is near the top of NFL in run stops and tackling efficiency by a CB. He's a good tackler most of the time, but I think his coverage skills cause him to miss too many tackles on passing plays. Also, we LOVE to completely destroy him on the internet when he does miss a tackle, so it's getting extra attention.
I think moving to FS and putting in more of a position to make stops instead of covering a WR 1-on-1 will really help his game. He's one of the better run-stopping CBs in the NFL and playing FS will allow him to get similar angles on WRs on passing plays, instead of trying to catch them from behind. http://www.profootballfocus.com/blog...e-cornerbacks/ Quote:

Now, I do realize most of the scrutiny on Hall is due to his high salary and I can't disagree with it for that reason...he should elevate his game to earn his pay. But, I'm glad Hall is on this team most of the time. He has single-handedly won us more than one game since he's come here. He can fire up the whole team with his play at times and there's no one on the roster who can replace him right now, so just accept he's a Redskin and get behind him.

Re: Another D.Hall Thread.
^^ The issues with his tackling are clearly overblown as indicated by PFF. He's actually a good tackler for a corner.
