Rarely or just not good enough, I didn't see other franchises with elite return me holding them back......Champ Bailey did it DC and with the Bronco's, Hall does it, Adam Pac Man Jones does it............last time I checked folks around these parts though he was comparable, infact the scouting staff and coaching department ran their mouths about his Special teams ability inorder to justify the 5th overall selection.
pick-six are just a part of the plays that elite CBs or Special teams players are supposed to make. The fact that 4 seasons went by before an extraodinary talent like Newman was able to sniff end-zone is amazing......just like the blue moon.

Neither do I, but I expect them to atleast make game changing places once every blue moon, Newman's blue moon came this Sunday after exactly
4 seasons in the NFL........too bad he also threw in his worst performance as a Pro too.

Because the elite are able to do the rare things that very good CBs like Newman can't do or couldn't do until this past Sunday.
