CB Play

We all know Smoot is a good CB but does anyone in here think he can handle someone Like TO or Moss? Who would you guys put on TO? Smoot or Springs? Or would you zone them to death? Or double cover them with safety help?

You gotta put springs on them. Smoot may be the better overall cornerback, but Springs is alot more physical in coverage. I dont know though, Smoot has bene pretty agressive latley too. My nod would be Springs.

Springs definately has to cover TO (he's far stronger than Smoot), but I'd double him with safety help.

Taylor is probabbly a little inexperienced to cover TO. In other words, he would probably get worked. Now Smoot with help from Taylor would do the job. Our LBs can cover Westbrook and their TE's and Springs is solid one on one with their other WR.
Plus, I would love to see the smack flying!

Smoot covered Toomer and Keyshawn Johnson very well I might add.

Whoever is on guys like Moss and Owens will need a ton of help no doubt.

You have to double team Moss. Not a bad idea for Owens, too.

Right now, you have to kneecap Moss to cover him. Of course it depends how serious his hamstring is.

I'd put Springs on Owens. When Springs was in Seattle, he had to see Owens twice a year in San Francisco.

yeah unfortunately some people only think of Springs as the guy who got burned by TO in the famous sharpie celebration play

I'd put Springs on him as well though, he has the size to do it
