why don't you look at how many games shawn springs has missed since he came here in 2004....... i am picking up what Springs is putting down. the dude last year had to deal with a rookie safety and reed doughty, who might as well have been a rookie last year at that point. both of which were his over the top help....explains the long plays and 4 dirts TO had. Shawn is a great corner and probably one of the most underrated in the NFL..... if you can name 10 better than him i would be surprised. but he also has the benefit of a experienced dirty30 and experienced reed doughty.....my worry would be the rook horton.
