Not delusional. I feel the same way. I think he could be better than Keenan Lewis. I know people will say that's crazy, but when you look at their career paths, they're very similar. But Corey is a better athlete than Keenan and has a good mean streak too. 2-3 years from now, maybe even later this year, we may go back and look at this point in the season and say that's when Corey White became a big-time player.

But I have been saying this kind of stuff about him for months. So I'm probably a little biased. I just feel like he's on the verge of being a star.

I had been holding White accountable for the K. Thompkins TD reception against the Pats last year -- but I went back and looked and it was actually Jabari Greer. Hmmm.....

It was really on Bush, who was supposed to be Greer's help over the top. But Brady looked him off and he went the wrong way for a split second, then couldn't get back to the corner in time to help.

All I remember was Junior getting mugged on the final play.
Looked pretty obvious on my tv screen.

Has he ever picked off Drew in practice?

Boom...nailed it. Wouldn't have mattered if the secondary was out-of-place with a 10 yard holding penalty. It is what is it, though.

Actually watch that clip again. watch the safety help over the top just stand there for what seems like for ever. our safety play in that game was the worse i have seen in years

Moved Harper & Jenkins. Brought in Byrd and promoted KVac to starting SS.

Problem solved?

Not really... Greer even admitted he got caught looking in the back field, earlier in the game he almost had a pick on the same type of play but Brady caught him and gave him the double move. It was on the NFL replay interview.

Sure, but that doesn't really have anything to do with the safety being out of position as well. Long pass to the end zone like that, it's Bush's job to be there. In fact that's literally the ONLY thing he's responsible for in that situation.
