Ok, Woodson has 10 yrs on Aso too.

He's about to go to Safety land.

Woodson Defensive MVP 2 yrs ago.

I just said he's a complete CB.

That link was nothing more then an anti=smear campaign against aso. Again, manning, woodson others have stated aso is the best. Unless you think Revis could tackle Peterson in the open field< LMAO. Most LB's would have trouble. CB's are used to support the run, no tackle RB's in the open field, which ios where these stats come from.

I think that's untrue, Champ Bailey, C. Woodson, Winfield hell some dude named Bradley Fletcher all routinely downed runners. The paragraphs specifically shot down the reasons for the missed tackles that you mentioned. Revis maybe wouldn't tackle AD but he surely doesn't miss a tackle ever 6 attempts, also he's not 6'2" 210. The people who wrote that article know more about football than both of us so, they're pretty sure of how CBs are used in run support.

Basically dude, take off the Raider shades, no one hates the Raiders or is trying to unfairly down them. They are what they are.

Personally, I don't think Revis should be 99, I'm thinking around 94-95 for him.

Don't you get it. Anyone who doesn't think Aso is the greatest is ignorant, doesn't know anything about football, and has an obvious agenda against Aso and the Raiders.

Big gains and open field. Even Woodson would struggle tackling a RB in open space. That article is totally out of context.

no, they know that is what i'm telling you. their whole approach to their grading system is to put every play in context, which is why a guy like Aso, who doesn't make a ton of picks and doesn't get thrown at can be a top corner in their system.

no, they didn't. they watched every play.

come on dude he played 6 less games and still had more tds.

# 153 romeosdistress @ 07/23/11 12:47 PM

also ware being 99 is bull****. he had like 56 tackles. he doesnt play the run for ****. thats not 99. maybe a 99 in pass rushing, but not overall.

# 154 asdf3 @ 07/25/11 03:15 PM

How is Andre Johnson not a 99? Dude is faraway the best wide receiver in football and it isn't all that close. You can't find one flaw in his game, that in itself should solidify him as a 99 overall player.

Now I'm not a CBoys fan but I will stick up for Ware against the post quoted. Last season, DeMarcus Ware had the very best run stop rate among all linebackers at 91% of plays. He is up there with the likes of Terrell Suggs and James Harrison (both 85%). Here is the link for anyone who would like to learn more on run stop rates

I would also like to state that I do not believe Ware deserves a 99 either but a 98 would not be too far fetched
