Oh I came up witha lot more than that. :)

So your saying he played well today? Do you believe he is a shutdown CB?

Is he Champ Bailey in his prime no. But DRC is still young and not yet in his prime. He has shown the ability to make big plays and stop drives. No corner including Champ Bailey can shutdown when the setup today was no Pass rush, great running game, and Qb having time to read 3 chapters of War and Peace. Get real. One was a poor call and the other was an uncatchable ball. That is why Billick said he didn't know about the call.

Best corner we have had in a while. Very talented and will only get better. Very few shutdown corners in the league but DRC has played very well for us and having been to a pro bowl at his age is an accomplishment. Again, he is not one of our problems on D whether you like him or not.

Not one of his best efforts today. Hardly what I noticed about the D though.

Toler getting owned too :)

i was gonna be shocked if no one mentioned this as well.

DRC is a FANTASTIC talent... who's a *****.

Toler is a good tackler... who's shown almost zero ability to cover a queen size bed with a king size sheet.

I thought Toler played well in the preseason and Rams game. No?

Especially after a game in which a backup running back dominated us. We were run over. Not one player on D had a good game.

No common sense allowed here, DRC is supposed to lock down his side of the field and the running game at the same time. It's all his fault, every other played great except for him....yeah. I don't know if DD stands for Darnell Dockett or "Didn't Dress".

DRC is expected to lock down which ever player he is lined up against. That is the expectation when you are a player of his caliber. When he doesn't do that, it is a very bad thing for our defense. Simple Truths. Paris Lenon getting dominated WILL happen, you can live with that. DRC getting thrown on all day should NEVER happen, and we can't win defensively when it happens.

Really? With no pass rush and our entire DL getting dominated. Forget about Paris Lenon. Name one player on D who did well today?

If you read my posts instead trying to annoy people for the sake of it you would see I don't believe he had a good game. Not a good game for anyone on D. We have far bigger problems on D than DRC.

Why is it that anytime a player on the team is criticized for a poor game the excuse made for him is that everyone else played poorly too? But in the positives from today's game thread the same posters will list like 16 guys who played well.

Aeneas Williams played for years with a bunch of hacks who didn't even belong in the NFL and who seldom if ever played well and he still had great games.

Just ask Michael Irvin.

Or when the D plays bad people pick out a player they don't like and criticize him. And who the hell said DRC is the player Aeneas Williams was. Give the kid a break.

AW a true professional and true all pro is a perfect analogy of just how good a cb can be when the rest of the D blows. Good job duck. No matter what and without question you could count on AW to show up and do his job well no matter the circumstances!

So if our corners don't play like AW every game you will criticize them? Wow. You really do need a nap.

He's not? He's supposed to be this awesome shutdown CB. Do you really think he's not that good? If so, would you care to explain why you don't think he's the player AW was?

But anyway the player comparison was only in your head. The real point is that great players, and DRC is supposed to be a great player, play well regardless of the circumstances and the talent around them.

I don't see people here pick out players they don't like and criticize them for no reason. Most of the posters here pick out players who had bad games and criticize them.

Asomugha has done fine in Oakland with zero pass rush for the majority of his elite career. I would've hoped that DRC reached that level by now but alas. He is DeAngelo Hall 2.0, he shows flashes of his potential a lot of the time but never ends up reaching it.

What the hell are you talking about? You made the player comparison with AW. I never compared DRC with anyone. DRC is a good player that hopefully will be great with the talent he has. He had a sub par day but not near as bad as indicated by some in this thread. And yes the pass rush does impact CB success and today we had none.
