Landon is a great saftey but let me ask this.

Would Witten had scored if Jones was in on that coverage. Landon was fooled in coverage on that one

You really have no idea what you are talking about.
Yes...apparently I don't. I only reviewed the first half of last weeks game and this wasn't the only case of him being hesitant...this is like the 5th case of it but this involved the ball being right in front of him. The ohers end up with the ball carrier being tackled in front of him...he has a knack for that.

At some point in a zone, 3 to 5 seconds after the snap, I'd think the coaches would teach to Man up.............
Which is what Carr did at Green Bay which left a hole in the zone allowing the TE to make a sideline catch to set up their winning field goal.

Collins was miked up for game and before the play he said he has Witten but bit on the play fake giving Witten room for an easy TD. It happens and is why Zeke is so important

I'm a pretty big Jones fan, but Collins is obviously the better player. I'd take him over Jones in a heartbeat. That said, I still think Jones was a solid pick.
Yeah just because you want one player doesn't mean the other is trash, Collins is a better safety because that's his natural position so i expect him to be better. The one thing Jones has over him is his flexibility which the Cowboys needed at the time.

It has to be a team concept....then it takes b.Jones out of a weak spot of no instincts...and he latches on to the g.bay te.

Collins is so good he deserves Earl Thomas money (I don't believe this but I would sure like to see the Giants believe this). Pay up Giants! Pay Odell $18M/year and pay Collins $9M/year. And Pugh and Flowers are all pros. So pay them top dollar also. How to kill a cap 101.

NYG: pay ODB like a QB.
Please? I smile sweetly...
