DMVSkins Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 That entire list saddens me when talking about who to start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedevilhimself Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Is it the CB's that choose to give a cushion or is that part of Blache's scheme? Honest question I thought it was when we play the cover 3 or cover 0 ( my terminology is not great )where essentially one CB takes the left of the field the other the right and the deep safety over the top .. What is annoying is that Rogers is a fantastic press man cover corner .. he is very physical and can disrupt the WR at the line . If his confidence is shot though he may never get back to the form he had at the start of 08 and 07 and if he is just checking off the days and going through the motions then we need to see what we have with Barnes and Tryon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TGI Jef Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 i think that Carlos Rogers was one of the best CBs in the nfl... LAST YEAR. cannot believe how much his play has fallen off. i realize he didnt get a lot of picks last year, but he shut down some serious WRs of different styles - big and fast, small and quick, etc. quite evident he doesnt care this year. im disappointed to say that i was wrong about him. i thought he would be a pro bowl player this year. he needs to go. as for smoot, he still plays with passion and made some good plays on Sunday. i like him better as a 2nd/3rd CB than at safety. too many mental mistakes can come at S (i realize it wasnt him on that 2nd brandon marshall touchdown, but that also is an example of what can happen) when you dont focus on the scheme at that position only. even if Smoot does play S, he needs to only play safety.

Thirtyfive2seven Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I want to see what Barnes can do in game situations. Other rookies are playing already so why not have him in there on nickle or dime situations? I know that other players probably have a better feel for the system having been here longer but damnit I want to see what the youngsters can do!

cmiles3006 Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 As with most things in life, its not what happens, its how you react. I cannot stand C. Rogers reactions. He comes across as he doesn't care. He jogs around when he's beat, his response to questions after the game were a losers comments. I know these are intangibles, but I believe his attitude is going to cause him to continually be beat because he is too lacidasical(sp?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nebster21 Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I do not care as long as it is not Tryon. He just needs to Try On Another Uniform Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirClintonPortis Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I'll have to go with Smoot. Isn't Westbrook ahead of Barnes on the depth chart? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goflyhelo Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 I voted for Rogers as I think he got the message and play at the level we all expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thinking Skins Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 I want to see what Barnes can do in game situations.

Orakpo is the exception. Barnes won't see playing time until next year, trust me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apickmans Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 If there is no CBA agreement, doesnt Los become a restricted free agent? Doesnt that mean if we dont resign him we would get a compensatory pick? I can be totally wrong on this, so if i am can someone clear this up....

Chump Bailey Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 I worry about our secondary and Dallas's weapons personally. I think we'll miss Springs badly, but hopefully we can get to Romo sits to pee enough to limit the amount of chances he gets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyHolt Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 I dont care who it is if Blache uses tight man. Smoot came in to save the day, but he was allowed to play tight man. Try and stay off a receiver far downfield yet be in man coverage. You eventually bite any move he does, you get caught flat footed, and then you are toast. Our corner cushion sucks. When Rogers plays tight man, he kicks ass. Running with a WR is easier to stop any pass coming his way. How many passes defended do our covers have playing the corner cushion?

S.T.real,lights,out Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 I hate to say but throw one of the young guys in there! I mean we know what we can get out of Los. He's hit or miss and can never get an int! Let's see what Barnes and Tryon can do! And you know they will both be pumped for the Cowgirls game.

RandyHolt Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Shouldnt a teams starting corner get a lot of credit for the "top ranked" passing defense in the NFL? Or is it the scheme? Its maybe a combination. Regardless, I think we can all agree Rogers brings little to the team as a cushion corner. No i dont think its his choice. If he is in cover 2, why bother having Carlos so deep? he is going to pass off everything deep anyways. I say run around in tight man from the snap. So Blache needs to disguise his Cover 2 / Corner Cushion better. Or just let the guys play football and get Carlos into press coverage before we throw him under the bus. Remember what happened in Dallas last year? Blache played tight man from the 1st snap. And TO imploded and the rest is history. Press coverage tight man for the win.

darrelgreenie Posted November 19, 2009 Author Share Posted November 19, 2009 http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/11/18/AR2009111803702_2.html?sub=AR It sounds like Rogers made nice with the coaching staff. Maybe he was just speaking from post-benching/post-game emotion. Or Maybe the coaching staff is trying to put a pretty face on things. But from this article it seems like Rogers is still in the mix to get the start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
