Wait,
actually Kevin Smith with an achilles tendon that was torn up and repaired was never beaten as badly as Newman is from week to week.
How can a guy with Newman's supposed speed be beaten by the most pedestrian receivers...........usually by 5 yards or more?

Can't cover,can't tackle..........................
I could do that for Dallas,and I wouldn't even ask for the millions Newman is making.
"are grossly overreacting
it is bad but it is not a tell tale sign of how good he will be and how good he is
lots of players struggle a bit in their second year
also, it is early in the season
he'll recover and have a good season"
Face it,when you are the #5 pick overall and paid millions YOU BETTER DO YOUR DAMN JOB.

As i wrote before. I saw this kid play this year (on TV) and i must say he has all the physical tools but NO feel for the game. That's what seperates great CB from medicore ones. Look at Deion, he may not have the physical tools anymore but he still has the feel for the game. Thas why he has 2 ints today.
IMO we don't have to get rid of Newmann, but we have to get one real good CB who can shut down people at this level. Newman will be ok as a back up. Never the less it was a bad drafting decission - hopefully JJ pans out!

He isn't a SS, and it seems like he has been on a serious decline since his rookie season. Just an observation.
I'm not trying to get into an arguement and my first comment was kind of a joke because how bad you are overeacting with Newman. He hasn't been playing well...but in no way does that make him a bust.

Newman never got that bad he was always that bad. He never looked for the ball. Had no feel for the receiver, couldn't read routes, was always way of the ball on crossing routes etc... The Point is it was overlooked by many because we played a great defence. Second many said give this kid time because it's his first year. But you could see that there are more problems that kid has than just adjusting to the speed of the game.
Many players can compensate their lack of ability with their great physical tools. Maybe Newman is in the same league.
BTW. I can't remember Denver based their decission to trade for Bailey because of Newman. Did they said that officially - i can't remember! But i can remember that their was alot of discussion of how stupid Denver must be to make a trade like that. Now look who is laughing at last?!
Of course Williams plays FS and it was always known that Williams has problems when thrown into covering people. So why in hell use him like that? Thats not a position you want Williams in. But thats not his problem thats a problem of the one who tells him what to play. This guy sucks so bad i can't even find words to describe it. The badest decission IMO last offseason was from JJ raising this mans salary to make him stay. (Go GROZ!) No serious: This Zimmer guy drives me mad from week to week! And the excuses you all find for him (no or young CBs no DL etc) just driving me more nuts! Let this man go and give me a good DC who is able to discover the players strengths and let them play up to them!

I understood it as a joke and it wasn't my intention to argue with you either. It's just my frustation over Newman. Because what i saw from Newman is enough for me to say he is a bust. You can see he is going to be an ok CB but he won't be anything near where we all hoped he would be. IMO he just lackes talent you can't learn.
For Williams he for sure is a SS. I don't care what he played in college. Even he there was more used as an SS then FS.
