You can say that with just about everyone on the roster at the moment.

Neither Dunta nor Lewis are "old", you don't move a young FS to CB though, unless he's physically gifted in bump and run.

Get ready to:

A) Kiss Kendrick Lewis' terrible ass goodbye.

B) Welcome Dunta Robinson to FS.

Because it's happening.

Tackling is important at every position? No shit sherlock. Tell me, did you play football at some time in your life to learn that notion? Because I did, and man did my life change once I found that out.

If you were to rank tackling by position on the Defense, FS would be near the bottom in terms of skill priorities.

If we can get him cheap enough, I'm all for that. I am not a Brown/Daniels fan at all, not even a little.

He's injury prone because he got injured for the first time last year? That statement doesn't have weight to put behind it. Funny, Eric Berry has been injured more often than Lewis, and I don't hear you saying how injury prone he is.

Also, tell me more about how bad of a tackler a Free Safety is, because as we've discussed here for the last page or two, I think I've made it clear that the FS position doesn't have a huge emphasis on tackling players.

imagine this idea for a second

When you have good to decent QB play, like Atlanta has, you can afford to have shitty burn victims for CBs on the downswing of their career. Imagine that. If we ever got a QB worth a shit we could also give up having turds at other positions, but in fact we need to be built like a Ravens team with Trent Dilfer or in this case a 2011 49ers team with Alex Smith to have a punchers chance, and that requires good positional talent.

Before you change the subject to cry about something entirely different, remember the following.

The Atlanta Falcons defense gave up the 5th fewest points in the league, in the NFC South.

I'll repeat that. the FIFTH FEWIST, From the NFC SOUTH.

Offense or not, you don't get to the playoffs if other teams score on your "burn victims" as often as you score on theirs.

Yes, the Atlanta Falcons have a powerful offense, but they had a very good secondary as well, it included Dunta.

Make any argument you want, Atlanta didn't win solely on the merit of their Offense, and Dunta's numbers are inflated by the combination of the success of the Offense, as well as the Defense.

that's a Scooter ***** draft pick for you

Um, you're an idiot. Kendrick Lewis is a great selection.

He clearly has the talent he's just......****......pulling a Bartee the last year...

Or I don't know, maybe you guys watched the same games I did, but he was hurt last year. Like Berry the year before..........

The free safety and strong safety in today's nfl isn't much different. Lewis is the old regime, move on

Mecca 03-09-2013 01:13 PM

Lewis has had a shoulder problem for 2 years now. And he's not moving to cb he'd move to the bench.

Is someone, ANYONE, defending Kendrick Lewis??? Really?

O.city 03-09-2013 01:15 PM

Lewis is a slow fs that takes bad angles and doesn't tackle. Meh

You've lost your ****ing mind. Did you not see the work Lewis put in when Berry went down in 2011 with people named Sabby Piscatelli in there?

The kid is heavily underrated and I find it shocking that a "chiefs fan" would even suggest moving away from Kendrick Lewis.

When we had Carr here, between Flowers, Carr, Lewis, and Berry, we had one of the best secondaries in the league.

Yeah, he's a good player. Are you really that surprised, or is your memory that bad?

He does not take bad angles, and you throw out there bad tackler like anybody gives a **** at the free safety position.

Mecca 03-09-2013 01:17 PM

I guess this guy will be mad when Lewis is riding the pine playing st and occasional defensive snaps.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Dunta Robinson will be 31 next month. That's ancient, even if your name is Deion Sanders. If Robinson doesn't move to safety and he's expected to start at CB, you're looking at a Stanford Routt situation all over again.

Kendrick Lewis is a former 5th rounder that's slow and can't stay healthy. There is absolutely no way he's moving to CB, unless he's moving on to the Arena League.

I won't be mad when Lewis is our starter at Free Safety for yet another year, and next year we will have this talk, and it'll be the same.

"Lewis is slow, and he's a poor tackler".

Sounds just like the arguments Ravens fans have made about Ed Reed for an eternity. the only difference is that Defense is solid enough to shut down the run 24/7/365 and force teams to throw, giving Ed Reed who is an excellent ball hawk, a chance to make a play.

Surprise.

LMAO

Ed Reed and Kendrick Lewis in the same breath?

ROFL

Did you really compare Lewis to Reed? Put down the pipe seriously.
