Don't get me wrong..I like Champ..I just don't think he is the "Shut Down" Corner everyone is claiming him to be

True about the offense giving up points, but since I don't follow the Broncos, I don't know how many points their offense or ST have given up, if any. Most teams have at least 1 or 2 INT or kick return TD's against them by this point, but I didn't research each Denver game to find that out. I just went by the rating and points allowed totals.
So if you give the Skins the edge because of the offense giving up points, it still evens out at this point since Denver's RB's have more yards.....but remember that 7 of those points were from a Portis fumble.
I agree to an extent on Champ. He is one of the best corners in the league, but I don't believe there is such a thing as a "shut-down corner". Every corner gets burned, but the best ones keep it from happening as often as others. That said, it was kinda nice to see Champ have a bad night on the national stage last night, considering how the media tends to talk him up to be practically invincible.
