How is Maxwell Hairston doing?

How is this a Billsy response. The tweet was about McDuffie, who’s completion percentage against is a full 10 points less  than Max, who’s relatively in a group with  Woolen, Rogers, and Gonzalez. Not a knock against Max, just an acknowledgement that McDuffie is really playing well in LA. 

It’s SUCH a Billsy comment .  The thread isn’t about other cbs …it’s about how Hairston is doing…which by most accounts…is pretty good….yet the poster had to go tangential or off the board to find some thing negative

Deion Sanders is in the Hall of Fame as a player and he never tackled anyone.

I’d take another Deion Sanders. With respect to Darryl Revis, he’s the best 1v1 cover CB I ever saw.

The only one I have actually complained about is Alford. That guy has been terrible. Not just coverage but trying to tackle someone is some of the worst stuff I have ever seen.

 

Agree. I still think there is a world where the Bills end state is Max and Benford in base, in nickel Max goes inside and IGB comes in to play boundary. Right now I think that is the way to get your strongest guys on the field.

Might that further expose Max as a poor tackler?

Maybe. It's a good point. But the types of tackles are different in there too.

I'm not sure that these stats are meaningful after 3 games. Benford has been targeted 21 times while Hairston has only been targeted 11 times. Is that because Hairston is better in coverage, or because Benford is covering the other team's primary WR option?

 

YES!

I was “the poster”. If you actually found my comment to be negative I suspect you were actively looking for something to get your zubaz patterned panties in a twist over.

Nnamdi Asomugha for me.

Too early, may not have a lot of significance.

 

Still, better a good low percentage than a bad high one.

 

Keep it up, Hairston.

Unplayable garbage today. “Liability” doesn’t begin to describe how bad he is  today.

Nnamdi man. What a pull. He had a 2 year spell of absolute dominance. 

[Urban Achievers]

Signing Suh if Ed is continually hurt may not be such a bad idea 🤣

[DJB]

He gets beaten consistently. Just not a threat out there 

[Nelius]

Looks very small 

[BillsFanForever19]

I thought he looked good enough the past few weeks. Romeo Doubs was certainly his kryptonite today though.

[GunnerBill]

He was very bad today, no question.

Hairston is very, very bad.

Just Doubs?

 

He got beat by everyone they lined up opposite him.

Hairston looked like the worst member of the secondary on the field. And Hamlin played a lot today
