What an idiot.

Among the great, unfulfilled predictions that float around the NFL in 2011, add this to the list: "I can't wait to dominate Jabari Greer again today."

Those words, uttered pregame by Falcons wide receiver Roddy White, didn't come true Sunday because Greer, who quietly has been having an excellent season, essentially shut down Atlanta's leading receiver.

Indeed, in the end it was White racking up some stupid penalties, and Greer breaking up passes in the end zone and heading home with a huge victory.

"Oh, yeah, definitely," Greer said when asked if defensive coordinator Gregg Williams or any teammate had passed White's comments along. "We're all professionals, and we understand that there's no hiding what you say. But I've been against Roddy five or six times, so I understand what kind of player he is and the challenge we had."
