Peters is a good ball hawker but he doesn't seem to like to tackle much and can get taken out of his game like he did vs Bears 2 years ago and the 1st SD game last year. Oh and the RS Pitt game.
A good shutdown CB needs to work well with a good safety over the top, he can do that when not jumping or watching in the backfield.
Peters faces the opponents best receiver almost exclusively.
Harris faces the opponents 2nd and 3rd wr option exclusively.
Peters forces turnovers.
Harris gives up game winners to backup tight ends. [Reply]
Talib had his best year last season and was fantastic, but Chris Harris Jr isn't even on his level.
Chris Harris Jr. will never be a #1 CB which is fine bc he's an elite slot CB and very good #2, but if you ask coaches/GM's if they would rather match up Marcus Peters or Chris Harris Jr on Julio Jones, the majority would easily be Peters.
FTR Talib is the best CB in the division right now. [Reply]

I'm not gonna rain on the Peter's parade. That said, let's wait and see if he's on Talib's level. He's an awesome young CB, so congrats on that, but is he consistent in being that true #1 CB that is on the Revis-Talib-Bailey level? That is still up in the air. Peters takes a lot of chances and does get burned, and he's not a tackler. That said, he's got great anticipation and always seems to be in the right position at the right time for an INT. [Reply]

Sometimes I'm like "this guy, although a Dungkeys fan is a good guy who knows a thing or 2." Other times I think, "this guy couldn't find his own dick with a magnifying glass, and an extra hand." But for the most part I like you... that being said.... what's going on with this thread? Supposed to be anger and hatred, seems to be a little too much felatiating going on... or maybe I'm just drunk...???:-) [Reply]
