I can sympathize with him. Tackling hurts, and corners shouldn't be depended on to do it that often; but he averaged around the amount of tackles a year you want a corner to. Like he always said, find the highlight reel of him missing tackles. And are you saying Dieon was all hype????!!!!!

Did you just say you can sympathize with a football player for not doing his job because it hurts?

Yes, if you are anywhere on defense, tackling is part of your damn job description it's 1/2 of what you do at the least.

What is a CB expected to do when the receiver he is covering catches a pass?

Deion would dominate whatever time period he played in. You got numerous linebackers and defensive linemen who's sole purpose is to make tackles that don't do it consistently but you think corners are supposed to have it perfected? When a corner is a great tackler he plays safety. He's a better tackler then any corner we've got I bet you that. You can't make any solid case to me about him being overrated. And yeah I can sympathize with pain. My body is messes up from football without going pro. You aren't playing. You're spectating and trying to take credit away from the best players ever.
