This is gonna hurt Clays feelings.

I was wondering why we would care that Alex Smith was rated better than Anthony Sherman

I never agreed with Clay about Smith.

No wonder phillbin is getting fired they let go of vontae davis and sean smith they could have had an amazing backfeild.

I was wondering this as well.
Then again, have we ever seen Sherman throw a pass? :hmmm:

Bullshit.


Sherman can throw a better deep ball than Alex.

Just goes to show that Miami ****ed itself with the scheme it was running. They had both Smith AND Vontae Davis and let them both leave.

Anyone who'd take Smith over Sherman should be shot on site...

He has been outstanding this year. Just needs to snag a few picks.

And they did this without Pioli!

Truth but he's had a damn good season

That's why phillbin is on his way out.

I love the "isn't that great against elite receivers and a good QB" argument.

Smith is awesome.

No.

If you have the choice to throw on Smith or Cooper who do you throw on?

Cooper.

Smith or Parker?

Parker.

Smith or a rookie Gaines?

Gaines...

Sherman or Byron Maxwell.

Works both ways.

I guess that's why Eric Warfield was considered so good.

Dumbass

Because we had a pass rush when Warfield was downing pain killers...

With Greg Wesley that was such a trash Backfield.

Nice to see a free agent CB work out after Patrick Surtain.

Yeah...You have to go all the way back to...what?

Hasty probably before that?...

Is he playing this week?

He was the last Big CB Free agent I was excited for he was trash.

He is probable for the Steelers game.

Not sure what you mean...

between 2005-2008 I didn't think the was worth what the chiefs were paying him.

If we could get gaines and Fleming healthy together to go with smith, we have some good young corners.

Clay's Bible has betrayed him.

Would be nice to know who #'s 1, 2, and 3 are.

Chris Harris is #1, I believe.

C'mon, dude.

Why in the world are people bagging on our corners? Anyone who watches games knows Smith gets targeted plenty and still plays well. And what game are we pointing to where Gaines or Fleming were torched all game long?

Not every one of our players is terrible, contrary to popular belief.

The fact that nobody here has been complaining about him 99% of the time this season is probably an even bigger indicator of how well he's playing.

Gawdahmytee do I miss Hasty!!!

Hasty, Carter, mighty mouse, Woods and Tongue!!!

For a short time that was a ****ing beastly secondary.

Carter/Hasty in their prime were probably the best combo in the league. Perhaps Philly had one better. That'd be it...

I cant even count how many off season and TC arguments I had with people who said he sucked and had been relegated to 2nd team because of play and it had nothing to do with his DUI.

Even though he was by far our best CB last season.

Smith has played well this year except for a few spots, I think. He deserves credit. He seems to be developing.

It's just too bad the rest of the secondary resembles the Benny Hill show.

Hasty would be getting flagged every other play for his "bump" coverage.

If what Hasty did was 'bump' then we all owe Ray Rice an apology.

So the site is irrelevant then

I don't get it. Why are people saying this? Fleming and Gaines and Owens have been playing just fine. Hell of a lot better than people expected.

We're not getting beat in the passing game.

No 300 yard games allowed. Top 2 pass defense, yet folks still talk like the defense is Shit. I don't get it. It's as dumb as **** as calling the team "awful". Which we still see all the time. People don't pay attention to other games.

PFF Rates Smith Ahead of Sherman


demonstrating, once again, that PFF is a shit site.

I do wonder what Clay has to say about this.

Clay, when you read this, please PM me so I can read your response.

Because, first off, PFF is ****ing stupid, and secondly, LMAO @ you haha

It is hit or miss on games. The main culprits on defense is not rotating lineman and our mlb being poor at tackling and angles.

offense is the main problem.

refusal to use rbs appropriately. Not benching certain linemen. Play calling. No adjustments.

People on this site are ****ing idiots. Simple as that..

Yup.

Add in QB who can't close or convert third downs and this is a good list.

Well Mcglynn finally got benched

Hes done a great job this season. I'd love to pair him with a guy like antonio cromartie next season with gaines in the slot, nomnomnom.

I had heard he got hurt..?

Hurt during the Cards game I don't remember that.

Seattle has faced the fewest pass attempts this season.

And they grade on a cumulative scale.

And I don't know how you credit Sherman for catching passes Kaepernick throws to him when the WR actually did get some space. And didn't he drop another 1 he could of had in that game.

I see Clay hasn't chimed in. Color me unsurprised.

Dude used to tout this PFF garbage like it was gospel. When we signed Smith it was "OMG HE'S THE WORST CORNER IN THE NFL SEE! LOOK! SEE!"

Now?

*Crickets* *Crickets*

I will say, PFF is ****ing stupid and ****ing awful and means NOTHING.

Count come get your medicine.

Hell, Sean Smith is only 27. I thought he was a couple years older.

End of discussion.

This place traded abrasive for all out ****ing stupid.

Well so can I :)

Linkenbach is just as bad, if not worse.

Law was really good at falling down.

This.

Even when he is being thrown at, he's been in position nearly every single time. He's having an outstanding season. Pro-bowl caliber season actually.

Worse? Not possible.

PFF had McGlynn as the 80th best Guard.

That was dead last.

Bump for Deflection

Well, it was pretty accurate on that account.
