Rc2catch Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 I am not as down as so many are on Levi. All the “he sucks” talk you guys saying that should be ashamed. He is a serviceable corner and undrafted for a reason. His play has far exceeded what anyone thought. All the bashing on him and we could of been soooooooo much worse off putting someone else out there. Back to the point, I like Kevin Johnson getting a chance to play this game. What better way to stick it to your old team who labeled you a busted pick than to have a big game and eliminate them from the playoffs. 1

I remember an article about how the Pats mine Bills, Fins and Jets media interviews for valuable intel. One instance I remember explicitly, this was a while ago, Fred Jackson was being interviewed after a big win and the reporter pressed him to explain how he was able to make a certain big play. Fred was really happy about it, and went into great detail about what his read was on the play and how the defensive alignment effected his decision. Now, maybe FredX was coached up to give misinformation, but I don't think so. The article, if I remember correctly, said the Bills were amongst the biggest offerders at giving key information away during interviews. I hope this is something McD continues to get better at coaching his team on... He and his coaching staff seem to do a pretty good job of handling the media without giving away specifics. 1

John from Riverside Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 If Levi has to gut it out....I would rather he didnt play K. Johnson is actually not a bad player....and actually has something to play for as this was his former team

Hampton Josh fan Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 Levi is a marginal cb. His cover skills are just ok and his tackling skills are worse than both Taron and Kevin Johnson. All in all a net gain.

Utah John Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 There are a few personnel situations that have Bills fans scratching their heads. The team is doing great so no one's really complaining, but there would be more direct attacks if they were losing. Why so little Duke Williams? He sure looks better than Foster. Isn't Johnson actually better than Wallace? Does Patrick DeMarco actually ever play and accomplish anything? But I remind myself that there's a lot that goes into every play and every decision. A lot has to do with how a player integrates into the system -- do they recognize coverages and make the proper adjustments? The coaches have better eyeballs than you and I do, and they know more about football than all of us put together. And it's possible that some personnel decisions are based on how things are likely to go over the next couple of years as well as this year. If the coaches think Levi Wallace is the better choice than Johnson, that's good enough for me. 2

But he has great physical abilities. I might be the Lone Fan of Levi Wallace and wish he was playing. Hopeful he gets 110% for KC . K can get the job done and make big plays. but i want a safety helping over the top for most of the game. On 1/3/2020 at 9:12 PM, Hampton Josh fan said: Levi is a marginal cb.

I think Tre was straight shooting and slipped up by referring to Kevin. I don't think he did it with intention to mislead the Texans.

On 1/3/2020 at 5:26 PM, Jauronimo said: I think OP's point is that Tre specifically said Kevin Johnson will be covering the right side of the field which could mean Levi is out. And yes, we play a lot of zone. I don't think Tre has ever had an assignment to cover one WR no matter where he lines up. Could be wrong. Tre didn't Shadow Hopkins last year. Expand hes followed quite a few guys through his career, and this year too. he didn’t have him every snap last year but if i recall tre even mocked that the Texans started hiding him in the backfield for some plays to get him out of tres shadow

Expand He actually make take snaps on defense in practice, just in case. McD likes his players to be flexible. I wonder if they could have Duke play safety, George Wilson made his career after transforming from a WR.
