Re: Secondary a Primary Concern

Its gonna take more than Rak and Kerrigan. We are gonna need inside push and would like to see Wilson or Jackson in the "rush" rotation as well, keeping Rak and Kerrigan fresh.

I think are safety coverage will be much better than last years.

Rolle and phillips are miles above our safeties to be fair.

ummm no. Rolle certainly is not. Phillips played decent after shaking the injury bug. I wouldnt say miles, perhaps the closer mesurement would be feet.

I am a little biased cus im a miami grad but i hate the gints with a passion. Rolle had 96 tackles last year and was a huge part of the run they made. Who is he only feet better than on our team ? Jackson - doughty - or merriweather? Come on man. Id give up our entire lot for those two in a heartbeat. I stand by my statement.

Re: Secondary a Primary Concern

Merriweather, Jackson, Williams I think coverage-wise potential to be just a strong or stronger. Up on run support, i give rolle and phillips a potentially overwhelming edge. They are certainly a better combo, but in the context, we may slightly below average to average play, the giants safety play is probably average to slightly above average. They are nothing spectaculer at this point, largely based on can Phillips take that next step? If he does, then its a different convo.

Fair enough. At this point we have seen the giants duo step up. Our guys are a complete question mark because they are all new to the team. With every ounce of my being i hope you will be giving me a big fat i told you so later on. Lol.

I hope so, we havent had good safety play since Sean Taylor which has felt like a long time.

A safety like Sean comes along once every 100 years. Very few safeties in the NFL can play the way Sean played.

As a miami grad and lifelong skins fan he was my guy. Wear my number 21 every sunday ( sometimes my 44 ). God needed a safety.

Madieu Williams plays (great) like a veteran in practice but, looks old come game time. He shouldn't make the final 53.

Yeah when people talk about difference making safeties only a few come to mind.

Lott
Reed
Woodson
Taylor
Atwater

For me

Now there's a smart comment. Ken Houston kicked ass. I'll never forget his tackle of Walt Garrison just short of the goal line, thus preserving a victory over Dall-ass.

Ken Houston was a beast. All the man did was break up passes and intercept them.
