I thought it was funny how Joey T was bragging on his awareness earlier in the game and how he always plays the ball... I know even the good ones make mistakes. Just sayin'.

Champ on the other hand played very well. I forget how good he is sometimes.

Seeing Champ play so well last night made me long for the days of Bailey and Smoot making life difficult for opposing WRs. I know Champ netted us Portis, but before that, the organization made a monumental gaffe giving franchise money to Lavar. A true shutdown corner is far more valuable than a freelancing LB, and Champ should have received the huge contract before Lavar.

So true.

As for Rogers, I like "Cushion" the best. I've never seen corners give a 15-yard cushion on 3rd and 5.
