We will disagree, if you really think McFadden has been "solid" this year when teams complete passes on him regularly then there is obviously no way to convince you otherwise.

McFadden is not a playmaker and he isn't any better in coverage than Rolle was at CB.

Teams complete passes on him regularly? Does that happen to any other CB in the league? We should get one of the kind who teams can't complete passes on.

Say, why do you think Superstar Hood languished on the cut pile for so long before the Titans picked him up for the league minimum?

Remember.... Chicago let go Hood in the pre-season as well.... And we all saw how poor their secondary is.

Hood had a pick 6 today for TN. He has been solid, but I still wouldn't want him playing anything other than nickel or in dime packages.

Did I ever say Hood was a "Superstar"? Nope. I just think he was a better Cardinal than McFadden has been especially Hood in 2007.

OK, I can accept that. McFadden hasn't impressed anyone yet. I do think you sell him short if you don't think he has been league average this year.

This is a passing league and there is no such thing as a shut-down corner anymore. It doesn't bother me when guys catch 8 yard outs in front of #25.

Ali Highsmith is playing like an Undrafted MLB.

He needs to be more assertive.
