Recency bias. Brown's last game wasn't his best so its clouding your judgment. He has been solid and has made few rookie mistakes.

Wrong. I've criticized Brown since the 49ers game when he was giving up 3rd down catches. By the way, my criticism isn't just to Brown. He's a 6th round CB, it's to be expected. My criticism goes to our staff for YET AGAIN relying on rookie or young CBs when they know Mo and Scandrick are injury prone.

My annoyance is us not learning from past mistakes and continuing to repeat them.

He gets targeted a lot because he's a rookie. They aren't looking to go at MoC first when he's out there. Because they throw at him more he gets more tackles. Only Carr and Byron Jones have more tackles in the secondary. Nobody gets YAC on him. He's a definite find in the 6th.

I appreciate your words. But everyone demands a steak on every plate these days (as Bill Parcells said). If a player is not instantly top 5 at their position, then they stink. Or they are a JAG. Or they suck. Etc. etc. Wouldn't have that JAG on my FF team. Whatever.

Hell. There are people out there that think Romo and Dez suck hard. Even Dak. LOL!!!

Just lay what you have to say out there and let the rage haters hate. They're going to do it anyway. It's what they do.

Troll them back hard, man. Its fun.

But whatever you do. Don't think you are going to convince any of them of anything. This isn't a court of law where you are presenting evidence and have a judge and then a ruling afterwards. Its a free for all internet BB. And the court of social media is about as messed up as it gets.

Go Cowboys!!!!

LOL what the heck happened to him against the Skins and Steelers? Who was it that gave up the sideline catch on a 3rd and 12 against the Ravens?

So basically he plays well when the competition is low. So, he's playing like a 6th round rookie? LOL

Every corner gives up catches in a game. Even #1 picks. Even all stars. You are holding him to an impossible standard if he is supposed to not let anyone make a catch.

Yeah, every corner gives up catches. No ****.

Not every corner gives up 3rd down catches, not every corner blows coverage for walk in TDs, not every corner has a PI call that gives a team 30-40 yards and puts them near the goal line.

Let's just face it, Browns best games came during a stretch where we played 3 terrible offenses.

Also, no, I'm not holding him to an "impossible" standard, but a realistic one. You're propping him up, calling him a steal. I'm saying he's playing like where he was drafted, a 6th round rookie.

How many other 6 round rookie CB's are starting?

He's "starting" due to injury. Patmon also started for us, so exactly what is your point?

Brown is much better than Patmon ever thought of being.

And by the way, you brought up Brown in the Ravens and Steelers games. He was second highest ranked by PFF against Ravens and 5th against Steelers. Not awful as you are trying to claim.

Ok....coming from the guy who had to look up the defensive coordinator's name.

Terrible comeback.

PFF, for a guy they are routinely putting in the top 10, isn't even ranked close to the top 20 right now in PFFs rankings. Want to know why? Because PFF has raw statistics early on in the week before reevaluation.

Brown has been average to awful on the outside. He was decent to good (depending on the situation) as the nickel corner. Why this is controversial...I don't know.

So our 6th round rookie isn't considered an average #1 corner already? Because that is what top 20 would mean. You keep coming off dumber with every post.

He already displayed great coverage this game, cause the offense to push off for a penalty.

I said he's not even close to top 20, reading is essential here. If he's ranked high, and people were saying he was as a nickel corner as well, he should be now as well. Which tells you, they reevaluated the tape and things changed.

He's playing like a 6th round CB.

If he is ranked in top 64 it's a win considered his draft position. Not sure why you consistently want to poo poo our own players.

Alos looked at his postings tonight....surprise, surprise....every one of them is negative and or ragging on the team somehow.

As is, you know, everyone else in the game thread. Try again, champ!

We're playing a sloppy game.

Yours is the same every week. Not just this one. There have been some good plays made. You haven't commented on any of them. Only when there is something negative. Definition of an agenda.
