Could Anthony Brown make the all rookie team this year? He has my vote. I remember a rookie CB the Boys drafted in 1991 named Larry Brown, who made the all rookie team.

They both were drafted in the later rounds, and Larry was MVP of Super Bowl XXX.

.............Thanks to O'Donnell, Twice ;)

Larry Disappeared soon after that SB.

I do Think Anthony is playing well.

Dallas didn't get Carson Wentz or Paxton Lynch. They got Dak Prescott much later.

Dallas didn't take Jalen Ramsey. But they got Anthony Brown much later.

Dallas didn't take a defensive lineman early. But they got Maliek Collins a bit later.

And, of course, Zeke happened. Maybe Jaylon Smith, too. Not fair. Those are supposed to be the impact guys.

Anthony Brown rounded out what might be the best draft in team history.

First of all... not enough credit was given to Larry brown for that super bowl.
Without those two catches. We lose 3rd super bowl to Stealers. Ugh... just the thought....

Second of all, this Brown......

Hell, if Rico Gathers can become a good blocking TE and red zone threat, then this would all just be amazing

Anthony brown has me terrified.

these next three games because we do not switch sides with our corners opposing offenses have half the work done for them. They can just lineup their top guy against brown and throw all day on him.

My feeling at this point of the season is that this is what is going to get us beat going forward. the giants can just park beckham over there all day. Same with evans and tate.

This team needs mo back and scandrick to get healthy somehow and fast. Brown has been good but I feel like its going to come crashing down on us at some point and get us beat.

I want to see him against the best. He is learning not to peek at the QB and to shadow the receiver..(a habit he developed at Purdue)...but where he was picked in the draft, I would say the Boys got a huge bargain.

Anthony Brown is more talented than Larry Brown.

Larry Brown was picked in the 12th round back when there were still 12 rounds in the NFL draft.

Larry Brown should have split the contract he got from the Raiders with QB Neil O'Donnell because O'Donnell made him the Super Bowl MVP by lobbing him two easy interceptions.

He covered the Steelers Antonio Brown. Will he be facing a better WR?

Lol

Wasn't it explained that the Stealers wide receivers didn't go to where they were supposed to? Ie. Where Larry was?

The Raiders gave him several million dollars worth of credit.

No but equally as dangerous and now teams know they will get that matchup anytime they want it. Him and mcfadden were not very good against pittsburgh.

I can certainly understand your angst, but Brown's problems have been the mental breakdowns. These are more easily rectified than the physical breakdowns.

McFadden really wan't that bad in that game. He gave up a TD on that fake spike play and got caught between the short and intermediate WR in zone on anther play.
