Re: D. Hall is our lone Pro Bowl selection
Quote:
BUT BUT BUT HE'S A PRO BOWLER....lol Kudos to him for having a good game in the Pro-Bowl. A game where they half ass it and most of the people elected don't even bother showing up. When they make the Pro-Bowl mean something (like giving the NFC/AFC home field advantage in Superbowl) then let me know. Quote:
First off, I've never downed anybody who's applauding any of the SKins selection to the Pro-Bowl. It's really a personal choice if you think the guy deserves it or not. I've always thought the guy could be the best CB this game has seen, but he simply doesn't have the discipline to play the position like he should. Look at Nnamdi Asomugha. The guy hardly gets any Ints (unlike D. Hall), but yet he's 10 times the better CB than D. Hall. Why? Because simply QBs won't even throw in his direction nor does he give up TDs. It's funny that D. Hall was paired with this guy and who was the individual that continually got burnt to a point they let him go after 8 games (after giving up a 2nd rounder and tons of cash). BUT BUT I SAW HIM ON ESPN MAKING A PLAY!!! HE'S GOT TO BE GOOOD!!! No, not really. Perception is everything. Reality is generally something totally different. I'm not a D. Hall hater, I just see D. Hall for what he is. A play maker who's also unreliable and inconsistent. Truth be told, Carlos Rogers plays the CB position better than D. Hall in terms of coverage. Too bad that kid has hands of stone or he'd be starting at CB in the pro-bowl OVER D. Hall. |

I can tell you have very little knowledge of the game of football. I liked this article about the best CBs in the league when D. Hall was with Oakland. Oakland's CB tandem No. 1? Insiders rank five better - NFL - CBSSports.com Football Quote:
Quote:
Comments above from a AFC def coordinator back when D. Hall was with Oakland. Not satisfied with people's opinion? Let's go to the stats. Below are stats from the 2008 season. Updated CB power rankings - The Official San Diego Chargers Forum This guy presents hard proof that D. Hall has and was been one of the worst rated CBs in the game. Quote:
Quote:
Guess what? I think he also led CBs this year in catches/yards allowed for a CB. So besides that precious Int number you are holding onto, you have any stats to back up your claim he's one of the best CBs in the game? Truthfully, nothing much has changed since those years either. He still gets a shareof INTs, but still gives up a ton of plays/TDs/Yards. Like I said, play maker that's unreliable and inconsistent. QBs are consistently throwing his direction for a reason. |

Re: D. Hall is our lone Pro Bowl selection
Have they changed much in terms of him being high on the list of catches allowed, yards allowed, and TDs allowed? Has anything changed over the past 2 years that suddenly vaulted him into the elite category of corner backs? I'll retract that if you can prove it to be wrong.

Tell you what, since you exposed my lack of football knowledge with your bias articles from 2006-2008. I will just keep ignorantly watching as DeAngelo Hall makes game changing plays next season as a Redskin in 2011 and ends up back in another Pro Bowl. As for your boy Rogers, who you say is a better CB than Hall, not so sure. But your the expert. |

The other thing I take into account when accessing Hall is the projected player he is becoming. I like what I see from him and only see more and more success as he continues to mature. |

I want you to get this straight and stop putting words in my mouth. I never said that Rogers was better than Hall. Let's review what I said. Quote:

Barry Sanders was not consistent with his running. He would get bottled up for 5 and 6 yards losses and then he might break a long one on the next down. DeAngelo Hall is similar (and NO I don't believe DeAngelo Hall is as good as Barry Sanders before you start that argument) in that he might get burned on a pass or two, but he might intercept the next one and take it to the house. He's a gambler, sometimes it pays off, sometimes it doesn't, but he's not trash.

I'm very consistent. I suggest you reread what I said or ask for clarification. Quote:

Talk about someone who can't read context clues. Hey buddy, you're going out of your way to make yourself look very "Offiss" like. And if you don't know what I'm talking about, ask someone who's been here since about '04.

Not the "I've been here since 2004" card. Your comparison wasn't remotely in the same ball park, but I guess it is if it suits your argument. A CB that gambles and gets burned/rewarded on a 50/50 basis, isn't the same as a runner that uses the best option each play but can only do so much. D. Hall isn't dependent on 5-7 guys to cover his guy. Barry Sanders relied on 5-7 guys each down to make those runs. It's not the same, and any person with a half a brain knows it. |

For the record, I don't live in Redskins Nation. I'm pretty much closer to Panther Nation. Quote:
