So Who Are The Starting CBs?

TheKillerBs · 12-01-2009, 07:06 PM

Okay, so the McDouble plays one good game and you guys are automatically proclaiming them the new starters?

Greer and Porter are our starters, when healthy. End of story.

These guys played their hearts out Monday night, but they are not our starting CB's. If Porter ends up being out for the season, I say go with Greer and Predator.

I hear what you are saying but the Single McKenzie has been doing just what he did for years now. I think he is a starter with his experience over Porter for now. Greer is a shutdown and so is McKenzie. Porter is a great corner but still learning as is Jenkins. Thus the vote for Greer on one side and McKenzie on the other. That's an amazing combo.

I don't care who starts as long as they are healthy and keep ball-hawking.

Turbo Saint · 12-01-2009, 09:17 PM

they're all phenomenal....i'm sold.

MM looked great and greer has been awesome as well. and to mention jenkins has been great too....everyone's playing awesome lol i have no idea what to do. when did we get such a superior secondary?!

My only gripe with Porter, is he seems to be injury prone. Two years in a row, that he's missing major playing time. I reallize the physicallity of the position, but I say we keep everyone, and rotate, until the end of the season. Better safe, than sorry.

yea i really doubt we're dropping anyone....OTHER THAN CARNEY. ugh...i do like the guy though, just not on our team, now.

I think we have so much depth at cornerback, all of which that are viable starters, that we can chose starters based on the wide receivers we are playing.

I personally say let go of Gay.... ever since watching him at atl last year it kinda ruins it for me :/

I think Greer and Porter when healthy, without a doubt. That
leaves McKenzie and Jenkins at nickel and dime. Not bad depth!

MCcalister is not up to speed yet, so I doubt he can challenge
any time soon.

It was just last week that we were saying our secondary was a weakness not a strength anymore. It's amazing how one week and two players later we're back to feeling great about the secondary.
