Spike, Crawley in no way is Corey White; White was scouted as a Safety/Nickel Corner and the Saints played him at the outside corner...

Crawley is a true cornerback and despite rookie struggles, has looked pretty good at times as well; AND, he's improving every week, which you can't say for every player...

It seemed like every time I saw someone from Atlanta catch the ball they were going up against Crawley...

I don't know who is a true corner and who isn't but Corey was a 5th round draft pick and Crawley wasn't drafted, unless I am wrong. Not that undrafted players cannot be better than drafted players, not my point, but corey must have been considered better coming out...at least I'd think.

I hope Crawley does great. I just don't see it...

Spike, geaux back and read the pre-game scouting report; not to take anything away from CB Sterling Moore, but he was put on Julio Jones who was gimped for the game and was nothing more than a distraction...

Crawley faced their best, healthiest receiver and did a good job with no pass rush to support him and even worse run defense that allowed average RB Devonta Freeman and RB Tevin Coleman to gash the front seven like a b*tch...

We're all frustrated with this defense, but this secondary has some real defenders in it and Crawley is going to be a force when he gets an even average front seven to limit him from 4+ second coverage...

The one that everyone should be questioning is our 10 mil / year defensive end who can't generate pass rush and an equally overpaid safety who should be riding the pine for a two-pick safety who knows how to pick the ball off...

Completely agree, one of the biggest under-performers this year; Cam Jordan. The guy is a non-factor this season.

Not sure what game you were watching. He held Jones to 1 catch for 6 yards...

Harris has been a disappointment, I think the struggles of the DBs are more reflective of our pass rush. Just like last year QBs have days to throw...
