Champ the best. Champ one of the best.

3. Has an infectiously positive locker room + sideline presence (QG may develop this in time too, but hasn't yet).

I defiently think Portis is much better, but that's the beauty of the denver line, it can make a back look better than he is, or at least he would be in a more conventional scheme, but we do have to keep in mind as other's have pointed out, it was KC they were playing. I just think in light of everything, kc's line is taylor made for that denver blocking phylosphy.

For a moment there last night I started to think that our old pal George Edward's was back coaching KC, how many times can you be fooled on a roleout, before you stop chasing the backside of a play, and go upfield to contain the QB? I swear KC's right end was like a labortory test rat, doing the same thing over, and over, and over again, unbelievable.

His name doesn't hurt when it comes to the overall marketing of Champ as a CB.
If his name was Herbert, I think he'd be considered "one of the best".
Sorry, no offense to guys named Herbert.

Now that he's a Bronco he is called the best CB in the league. Way is he now the best just because he has a new address.

Don't get me wrong I think he's very good. Although last year was not a banner year for him.

Anyway just wondered if anyone noticed this.

Yes, Anti-Redskins bias.....but the Redskins have gotten a lot of POSITIVE press with Gibb's return........During Dallas week I'm sure the national media will drool all about Parcells...........It's funny the Cowboys don't even have a player to brag about so when they preview the Boyz game it's (opponent) meets Bill Parcells and the Cowboys..... Yes, the Redskins have Gibbs but we have a lot of talent---Arrington, Portis, Coles, Burnell.......

i believe performances need to be judged in context of their difficulty, and i don't consider KC's D nearly as good as TB's D... i'd still like to see them beat a good defense before i judge QG talent.

Fred Smoot has led in interceptions for the past three year. He had five INT's his first year and four INT's each for his second and third season. As quite as it is kept, Smoot's performance was definitley apart of Champ's move to Denver. Now we have 3 very good CB's who will make a name for themselves this year with the best defense in the NFL for the first week. Man, what difference a Gibbs makes!
