Seriously, Champ gets guys down. That's all that's important. He goes low and gets guys to the groud. I don't care if it looks pretty, he gets the job done. And I really can't think of any time when Champ Bailey came on a blitz at any point in his Redskin career. The defense would be much better off with Champ than it is with Springs. However, I could care less being that we got Portis out of the deal.
