Routted

It all began reasonably well for Stanford Routt (-3.1) as he held his own for four weeks. It started to go south against Baltimore in the last game with a couple of penalties and some pretty tepid run defense but here it was his pass coverage that was held up to a fairly harsh spotlight. He allowed four of six passes to be completed into his coverage for 154 yards and the first touchdown. Sure he was a bit unlucky on the 62 yarder to Tiquan Underwood but let’s not forget him getting beat badly by Vincent Jackson with 4:59 gone in the second only for the ex-Charger to fail to locate a reasonably well thrown pass in the air.

To add insult, some of the angles he took in trying to chase down ball carriers were poor, meaning that overall this will not be a day he looks back on with any pride.

he was signed for the same reasons hillis and quinn were...cheap, essentially one year contract

Stanford Routt is a poor man's Donald Washington

all you ****s that called me an idiot yesterday can suck it. Since most of you jerk off PFF for every other player than Routt is no different. And PFF certainly says he is garbage

I called you an idiot for piling on over the 2 big plays. I'll call PFF idiots for piling on over those plays. They were great/lucky catches made in good coverage and weren't Routt's fault.

If you want to debate past games or other plays that's another matter. The two big plays in question were not his fault. He did his job and got unlucky.

Likely PFF only graded negatively on one of those plays.

Their grades cover every snap, including plays where Routt gets beaten badly but doesn't allow a completion, which happened at least once yesterday.

It's a legit grade. He sucked ass.

My editorializing regarding Routt in this thread has been constrained to those 2 plays and began after the first unfortunate TD in which Routt had tight coverage and some moron bumped the thread.

good thing that PFF grades on more than just 2 "big" plays then isnt it. And he's still terrible. And you are still wrong.

Nope, do you honestly think Routt is the main reason we're losing and our offense has nearly been outscored by the opposing teams punter the last two games?

I never said that. He's not the main reason for anything other than he stinks and gets beat like a drum more than not.

Sadly there is much worse on this team. Like that crappy ass FS behind him.

What PFF does is not even relevant to my contributions to this thread. I've never even shared what I think of him overall. I kinda want to see him play more than 6 games. I'm not wrong at all about the 2 plays I've discussed in this thread. Every CB in the league or to have ever played has been "victimized" similarly. It's not anything he should hang his head about.

I agree with this. Where we disagree is I think he is overall just not a good CB. I think you are waiting for a bigger sample size and willing to defend him a little more as not fully wanting to call him bad. I am assuming when he his awful for an entire 16 game sample season you will finally warm up to the idea that he stinks in the overall scope of things.

I do agree he is more talent than most of the starters on this team though, which is sad.

I look at the whole picture. He was brought in at 5-6 million per and he should play like being paid that. Pioli brought him in to either upgrade or keep the position the same post Carr. And it's essentially a massive downgrade, not even a lateral move in terms of talent. While still forking over 20 million. How about using 20 million for once and bringing in an actual FA talent. That would be wonderful. In 4 years that has yet to happen.
