Can't bench Reeves...

I like Reeves, but there's a reason he is one of the most targeted CBs in the league -- opposing QBs like him too.

Not that I disagree that Henry is better than Reeves. But there is another reason that Reeves is one of the most targeted CB's in the league. Against Dallas if you don't target Reeves you are probably targeting Newman. And that would make someone even dumber than eduncan.

Problem with that is that he was the most targeted when he was playing opposite of Henry too.
 
Henry > Reeves

Reeves >>> Nate Jones

Henry starts. Reeves goes back to the nickel slot. Both positions upgraded.

'Nuff said.

No, he's right. All you need to do is look at how slow Everson Walls was and how fast Rod Hill was.

Don't you feel silly now?

I was just about to post about Walls' speed (or lack thereof).


edunce annoyance level is starting to reach Nors proportions, and he's accomplishing that while on my ignore list.

Plain and simple: We are a better defense with Newman, Henry and Reeves than with Newman, Reeves and Jones.

We will improve oncy Henry returns, period.

Exactly. This isn't about benching Reeves, it's about benching Parakeet Jones.
 
Here the Cowboys sit at 6 - 1 and edunce is still moaning about Henry? If I remember correctly, if it were not for Henry in some of the early games, the Cowboys could be sitting at 4 - 3...!

Why edunce does this week after week after week I have no clue, but, it sure is getting old!
 
Is being moved back to the nickel corner really considered "benching"? What did Henry do to this guy, spurn his man-love letters?
 
Know who was really fast?

Randall Williams!

We should sign him up and let him take over Henry's spot!



Championship!!

That is right, todays NFL with all the 3 and 4 WR sets we need Reeves he is a big part of the defense. I expect Henry and Newman to man the starting position but Reeves is still going to see a lot of action.

Psst...

He doesn't know football. He has no idea that this doesn't diminish Reeves importance in this defense one iota. He is still a vital part of this defense. All it means is we're stronger at 2 positions because of Henry's return.

No doubt he is clueless. He shows highlights of Henry in zone coverage and complains how Henry got beat when the fact is Henry was just playing the underneath coverage

Reeves is a starter now.

He's tied for 3rd in solo TKL's [Ware has 27..Reeves has 27]

He leads the team in Pass Defended [9]

Our Pass Defense is 13th in the NFL! [ Dallas was 31st when Henry got hurt]


All good stuff.

All your above reasons are very flawed.

Reeves as been the starter all season, but somehow you attribute the change in pass defense to him!

Newman in the starting lineup would be a better reason and NY was the best passing team we faced other than NE. NE passed all day on us (without Henry) oops!

Inteceptions - you convieniently left that stat out!

Reeves has played no better than I thought he would. It is about as expected. He gives up a huge cushion and is the target for opposing QB's.

Exactly. No matter how many times he's been proven wrong he still thinks he has a point.

He doesn't and I have doubts he can grasp that. Hell he doesn't even realize that all his post draft rants about we need a CB came true in Reeves. That's the epitome of blindness to me.

"Ignore" is a great feature.

Hey guys ..... Remember this ...... Its not Reeves fault that Edunce acts the way he does.

Reeves is a good 3rd corner ..... and will be very valuable to us even after Henry takes his starting spot back.

Do not let this Troll affect your opinion of Reeves ....
