Ronde Barber

[seriousluboy83]

Hey I kno most ppl will say he's a cover 2 DB but I'm here to vouch for my man...Ronde is a beast...All those yrs we were running the cover 2 it was only ran 30% to 40% of the time...Monte Kiffin once stated this in a interview..."We really only run C2 when we're up by a TD or 10pts...And I'm still wandering why Ronde has a Man Coverage Rating of 70...C'mon Donny...Just because he isn't the fastest DB out there doesn't me he cant cover man to man...If pass deflections are the standard for man coverage Ronde should be at the top of the dog pile...I kno his height and speed are knocks against him but give him between a 85-90 and I'm happy

Stat Line: DB's In NFL 10 Years Or More...Just A Few
Key: int-interceptions/pd-pass deflections/mcv-man coverage

Champ Baily: 43-int/92-pd/mcv-96...A.Y.S.(Are You Serious)
Ronde Barber: 37-int/98-pd/mcv-70...A.Y.S.
Charles Woodson: 36-int/66-pd/mcv-89
Shawn Springs: 32-int/66-pd/mcv-83
Samari Rolle: 31-int/69-pd/mcv-80
Deshea Townsend: 20-int/81-pd/mcv-80
Antione Winfield: 20-int/66-pd/mcv-81
Al Harris: 19-int/99-pd/mcv-96...A.Y.S.

Is My Point Proven Yet???
Stats Don't Lie...

Perception>Stats

Cromartie is 89 overall, and the worst starting corner in 2008. By yards allow, and completions allowed. Granted he did have a hip injury.

Its all perception.

People think Ronde is old, slow and Cover 2 corner.

Agreed...perception is everything but I'm trying to break that perception...I only have one statement bro...when you compare players use the older guys...young players dont have the stat line to compare...I'm talking 10yr NFL experience or more plz

INT stats do lie, just because he has a bunch of picks doesn't mean he is good at man coverage. His pics could have come while playing zone.

So are you saying that Barber is better then Cromarte? Thats a joke.

READ THE WHOLE THREAD BEFORE POSTING...I said nothing about ints...I said if PD-PASS DEFLECTIONS are the standard...then his man coverage rating should be higher
