Yeah, it was one of those arguments where you thought you were completely 100% right, but you weren't.

You know, the usual.

perhaps you could explain sd's reasons for "disliking" it as well since you seem to be so in tune with other peoples minds

Win games.

Stop some WRs.

Bring that next time.

not that i care either way about the mask....but didnt he stop some wr's and win a game the week before he wore the mask...if youre gonna rock one when do you do it if it isnt after a game like the carolina one...not that it matters anyway as it was a protest against the front office not an on the field statement

and sheldon is easily in the conversation as one of the best corners in the nfl...saying hes THE best is untrue but hes easily top 10 and in the convo for top 5 all around best corners...didnt we already go over this in the spring?

I don't think you rock anything like that. MAYBE during the week in the locker room when the vultures descend for their quotes and sound bytes, but not during intros.

To me, you make those protests with your play; not with props coming out on the field.

I like Sheldon. I'm not sure if I'd put him top 10 though.

Without going through the rosters, off the top of my head:

Nnamdi Asomugha
Darrell Revis
Asante Samuel
Cortland Finnegan
Antoine Winfield
Nate Clements
Charles Woodson
Rashean Mathis
Champ Bailey
Antonio Cromartie

Rome

The Eagles got no pressure on Brees and he carved up the d-backs as a result.

im just saying you said win games and stop wr's....and thats what he did last week

but again its an irrelevant issue as it was a front office protest not an on the field one

as for that liust hes def better than cromartie and woodson

hes not as good as champ or asomunga

and hes right there with everyone else on that list...in other words hes in the mix as one of the best corners in the nfl
i can take a phrase thats rarely heard...flip it....now its a daily word

igy gettin it done like warrick

im the board pharmacist....always one step above yous

It's all opinion for sure, but those are the guys who I'd take right now over him.

I don't dig the "make a statement" props. The way I see it is if you want to make a statement, go out and do your job and prove that you should get caked off. He did that in week one. But it loses its luster when he starts doing silly shtein like this.

Play the game.

Just like I had a beef with Dunta Robinson putting "Pay Me Rick" on the back of his shoes.

Don't take contract disputes out onto the field.

methdeez

I just thought he wanted to look awesome. Which he did.

Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

PhillyPhreak54

LOL at your misguided thoughts that I always side with the FO.

This has nothing to do with the FO. This has to do with me not wanting Sheldon taking his pissing matches with them out onto the field.

MDS

aint no pissin match. dude aint getting paid and banner is an other-wordly prick. farg him.

Cortland Finnegan
Antoine Winfield
Nate Clements
Charles Woodson
Rashean Mathis
Champ Bailey
Antonio Cromartie

Nnamdi Asomugha - I think he's the best in the NFL
Darrell Revis - he's very good, but what can he do that Sheldon can't? He hasn't really proven to be better than Sheldon is. He may have a little better speed than Sheldon.
Asante Samuel - my opinion on Samuel has went down since he's come here. He's not physical and can't tackle. I'm kind of getting tired of his BS to be honest.
Cortland Finnegan - my most overrated player in the NFL. Every time I see him he gets torched. Don't like him a little bit.
Antoine Winfield - very good and he's up there, but I'll take Sheldon. It's definitely close. I think Sheldon has a little better knack for the ball.
Nate Clements - very good corner. He's up there.
Charles Woodson - he's not what he used to be, although he's still plenty good. I'll take Sheldon.
Rashean Mathis - from what I've seen of him, he's been mediocre since his great year a couple seasons ago.
Champ Bailey - always thought he was overrated, and he hasn't been his pro bowl self in years. Playing solely on name now.
Antonio Cromartie - can make amazing plays, but isn't a great cover corner. Relies on athleticism too much.

Not ripping you, just giving my take. I think Sheldon is better and more complete than most of those corners. May not make the explosive pick 6, but as far as flat out being a cover corner, I'll take Sheldon. Especially since Burress is done in the NFL for the forseeable future.
Calling it right on the $ since day one.
Just pointing laughing, and living it up while watching the Miami Heat stink it up.

hes done his job for years and didnt get caked off...he also tried to do the contract thing the "right way"...and he still is...i just dont see the mask being a big deal in either direction

reese125

somebody a couple of posts ago asked what can Darelle Revis do that Sheldon Brown cant?

effectively cover #1 corners. Revis has consistently shut down Randy Moss in multiple games and flat shut out Andre Johnson. Please dont put Sheldon Brown in that category

I like the guy, but cmon now..we've seen homeboy get burnt way too many times

The BIGSTUD

Stop. Lito Sheppard shut down TO and Randy Moss multiple times. Then he'll not show up against a mediocre receiver.

Sheldon had issues with Burress, but other than that, he's gotten burnt no more than any other great corner in this league. He didn't let up a TD until the NFCCG game last year for crying out loud.

Brown is a good player. Maybe even a very good player. But he isn't great and he's nowhere near top 5. Kill yourselves.
Is rjs gonna have to choke a bitch?

Let them eat bootstraps.

ice grillin you

hes 100% top ten....im not good at math but if thats nowhere near the top five then so be it

its really not that important
hes an excellent corner
any talk beyond that is strictly semantics
