Why am I Mr. Pink? Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 DJ on Grant & Danny. 1st interception where he let the TE go and jumped the slant to OBJ .. he sd he recognized the Ginats may be running what they call a "steelers 7" where the TE runs the 7 and the outside WR run inside slants. He showed man on TE but then let him go and jumped the slant to OBJ. ^ That is film room prep, that is situational football, that is play recognition, play making ability to jump the route .. . thats winning football.

Burgundy Yoda Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 If he doesn't receive all star accolades, it will be a major crime. I was not high on him at the beginning of the season but wow, he's totally proven me wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clskinsfan Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Some perspective on the season Swearinger is having so far. Rarely does a guy I call for us to get in FA end up getting signed. Even rarer when he is a complete baller: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burgundy Yoda Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 I wish we'd stop comparing safeties to Sean. People put him on a pedestal because of the season he was having but before that season he never really put it all together. We're seeing a very complete season here by DJ and it should be the standard in my opinion. Edit: Well damn DJ just did it himself, ill shutup now. ?

The eye test would lead me to believe that Swearinger is having a better season than any Redskins Safety I ever remember, including Sean Taylor. I’m not saying PFF is the Bible but Taylor scored an 88.9 in 2007, his final season. Swearinger scores 90.9 as of right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bakedtater1 Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 I'm not touching this 21-36 comparison with a ten foot pole... I REALLY REALY LOVE DJ soooo glad the skins picked him up..when I heard he was a big st fan I thought we might be getting something special here...so ****ing glad he plays for my beloved Washington Redskins.

Malapropismic Depository Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 This gives me chills... Heard from a family member of Swearinger that DJS and Sean Taylor both get off/got off of the left side of the bed every time they wake/woke up in the morning.

NickyJ Posted October 30, 2018 Author Share Posted October 30, 2018 I heard from a friend of a cousin of DJ's uncle five times removed that both DJ and Sean poured milk into their cereal on Saturday mornings when they were kids. And get this, THEY BOTH DRANK THE MILK FROM THE BOWL AFTER THEY ATE ALL THE CEREAL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koolblue13 Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 I'll admit I was wrong about DJ as well. Hes a baller at SS and really making the machine purr. This should be a good test for our safeties this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Swearinger has been great but Taylor was an absolute monster in 07 before his murder. He would have probably won DPOY. Swearinger is good but not THAT good. No need to play the compare game anyway. Just appreciate the season Swearinger is having. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't be so hard on yourself...3 professional teams in a span of just 4 years, were wrong about him as well. That's 2 unwanted Cardinals players who have turned out huge for us, one on offense, and one on defense. I wonder what other Cardinal out there we can transform.

I'll say this is probably the best or 2nd best season a safety has had in the B&G in a long time, for someone who's limited in foot speed and height, DJ makes up for it with great positioning and communication. If there were a reason I were to give his season the edge over Sean's it's because DJ is a better communicator than I Sean ever was. He helps get his people lined up in the right spots fairly frequently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UKskins Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 36 is playing the best football of his career and becoming the undisputed leader of the whole team, not just Defense. He's the first player since London who I think we can start to look at as being the "heart and soul of the Defense". Different personality to London, DJ has more fire, but that dude leaves it all on the field and wears his heart on his sleeve in exactly the same way 59 did. Love having him around and hopefully we can tie him down for a few more years yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
