GolfandBills Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 These guys continue to shut down WRs. They are both bigger CBs with good athleticism and can play the run very well too. I think they are easily a top 5 tandem. What say you? 2 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimboG Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 I say let's give it a few more weeks. 2 games is a small sample size. I love how much Benford is delivering for a 6th rounder though! Seems to be a legit top 20 CB. Is Elam going to get a look this season? 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special K Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 (edited) If you throw in a healthy Taron Johnson at nickel, does anyone have a better top 3?? Edited September 18 by Special K 6 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember more than two weeks only applies when results are good - when they are bad even for a play time to cut. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would put them up there with us, for sure. Carter in the slot is very VERY good, Sauce is a top 5 or so corner, and DJ Reed has played VERY well and is incredibly underrated 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonzo1105 Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 Benford early in this season has been at worst a top 10 corner probably top 5. Douglas has been pretty solid as well so I would agree and they have played solid weapons and QBs. Not the elite but good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been more than two games; this has been going on for a long while, imo. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they awarded All-Pro votes for the DB who gets away with holding the most he would be it this year. He has been getting away with murder on some of those plays. He also has been getting cooked by WRs...watched both Jet games and he hasn't looked good either game.

Buffalo_Stampede Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 They will never get the respect because they play a lot of zone, but they play it at an elite level. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish we had a player like Stevie Johnson who could embarrass him so bad that he wished he was playing for a team wearing red to help blush blend in.

Well let me say this, they made Waddle & Hill look like rookies last week pretty much shut them down & if you can do that i'd say they are pretty dang good !!! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
