Re: Great SI Article on Chris Horton
not to be a debbie doubter but imo horton's success has alot more to do with the way we use our SS in our D scheme. we could plug anyone where he is and they would put up similar numbers in my mind. that guy green, who was out of football, started one game after being here for less than a week and put up decent numbers. im not taking away anything from horton and some plays he has shown above average ability, but i havent seen enough of him to feel hes a probowler or even will really lock down the ss spot for years to come. hes been great given he was 7th round consolation pick but probowl? really?
that int against dallas was all him, no doubt about it, he showed great closing speed and understanding of what was going on and his assignment. i need to see more plays like this where i say to myself "not many on the skins roster could do that" before id vote him for the probowl. hes good, i just know if hes as good as some think so early in his career. time will tell . .
go skins!!
