Pyrite Gal Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Winfield stops the run better. Nate does everything else better. 607592[/snapback] This assessment strikes me as simplistic. Looking at the hard to measure things, Winfield has a consistency in his play that "playmake" Clements simply does not match. With Clements you will get the great dynamic play which the Bills have sorely lacked in the pre-Clements days of the occaisional INT run back for a TD or his work on the PR game. However, with this good also comes the evil of occaisional boners like him getting taking to the clearners on a Hail Mary 4th down pass by Jax a few years back. Virtually all CBs get taken to the woodshed by a perfect pass to an acrobatic WR through good coverage from time to time, however, a long with Winfield coming up with paltry INT numbers, he almost always proved to be a shut down CB with great tackling ability to boot. Those Clements derserved the Pro Bowl nod he got in 04 with some "thrill of victory" work, he also was clearly responsible for some "agony of defeat" moments in 05 and through out his career. Winfield rarely got the picks, but also rarely got embarassed. Add to that some quality work where he not only shut down RBs, but he is a shutdown cover guy not only on WRs, but he toasted TEs like Gonzales in a game against KC and nailed Jax TB fo a couple of major losses which took away a big part of their gameplan in one our wins and I think there is actually a much stronger case to make that he is a better CB than Clements.
