Yup, but the slippery slope went from "we need an upgrade" to "Dallas is incompetent because Heath is the worst in the NFL" happened at the speed of light.
I simply generally ignore those types. Why do you give what they say credence?

Not giving it credence, just plowing through the whining to get to information from the good posters here. There are a lot but its getting drowned out in a nightmare season like this.

If you really want to drive the point home, show the snap counts. Heath has 3 picks without playing many downs.
30%
They are playing a player to his strengths
What a concept
Heath is a great guy to have on your roster but he’s not a elite safety
Fans hated him here because we used him up to 98% of snaps
He’s a good player, good special teams player and good effort guy
We just used him wrong

Our fans hold every one of our players to a 1st round standard....Romo was held to the standard of a #1 overall pick for his entire career...

Why people expected Heath to be prime Ed Reed is absurd.
Winning teams have most of their rosters with great role players
That’s why it’s hard to keep a winning roster because teams sign your good players and you can’t afford to keep them and their star players
Heath is a great guy to have on a roster, just not taking 98% of snaps

Just like Urban Meyer said. There is no bad player in the NFL if they make it to any 53-man roster. It's about coaching. If you find the coach that connects with you and teaches you how to maximize your abilities and reach your potential, then you gonna go somewhere. If there is no coaching, what ever God-given talent you have will go to waste in this competitive league.

This applies to Jaylon Smith, Conor Williams, etc etc ... As long as Jerry hires deadwood coaches, or puppet coaches, all the talent he is bragging out if going down the drain if they remain here, or flourish when they go to another well-run organization

:cool:

Urban needs to see some tape of Daryl Worley. Add in some Nolan Carroll tape, and he'll be printing a retraction tootsweet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think I read he's 78th out of 92.

He also made one hell of a business decision against Brown(LA Rams) too.

I mean, something that Jaylon Smith would get roasted for level bad.



Looks like we dodged a bullet in not trading for the guy this year.

Maybe that Ram who grabbed him whispered something in his ear that made him freeze up.

You also forgot to mention Rod Marinelli is DL coach for the Raiders...

Heath is just lucky. He's never really right around the ball. He's in the area and tipped balls seem to float right to him.

Heath's biggest problem was the made up fan narratives. Heath was an above average backup and below average starter, which was fine for what he was paid. But the fan narrative was "Heath is the worst safety in the NFL" based on a made up stat by PFF. This year's version of that is "Trysten Hill was the worst DT in the NFL".

Meanwhile PFF ratings come from quick check the box reviews coming from people making slightly more than minimum wage.
the Calvin Johnson game gave him a bad rep for sure. Miss that dude.
