Re: Smooooot Nooooooo
 

Fred Smoot lead our team with int's just about every year when he was playing beside Champ so its not like him to drop those kinds of passes.

[quote=Southpaw;349927]I'm still not sure what people are expecting from Rogers. He's not Champ Bailey, but no one is. It's completely irrational to expect any corner in the league to give up zero pass completions.

And what exactly did Fred Smoot do today to outplay Rogers? Half of the Dolphins offense resulted from pass completions to Fred Smoots side.[/quote]

You're not sure what people are expecting from Rogers? People are expecting him to play like a first round draft choice that has the experience now to be better than mediocre. He picked up right where he left off last year...burnt toast.

As for Smoot, you're right, unfortunately he did not outplay Rogers. I just think he's shown more in his career to start over Rogers at this point.

The Smoot vs. Rogers debate makes sense to me. Smoot has a little more experience, Rogers has youth and athletic ability, that whole position battle makes sense to me as a close one.

Smoot vs. Springs is the mind-blowing battle. How the HELL did Smoot start over Springs? How was this not addressed in any press conferences? I saw it mentioned in a Washington Post article but that was it.

Starting Smoot over Springs if Springs isn't injured makes as much sense as starting Prielou over Taylor, or grabbing some practice squad dude and having him take over for Fletcher. The whole thing is incomprehensible to me.

smoot is a mouthy bum. nobody would even know who he was if he didn't run his jaws, a la deion sanders, or for his hooker boat. At least deion was good at one point (although not for us). I was saddened when he came back to town. bring back champ or d.green for that matter; shut down corners with class!
