I think Carl Lee was a very solid CB. But Doleman, Millard, Thomas and Noga made his job a lot easier.
It was a different era. You seem to be missing the whole point of the argument.
Somebody in here catch him up. I've obviously failed to do so on three attempts.
Nobody is going to back you.
Who makes the Bears the great defense they are? Hicks and Mack or Amukamara and Fuller
Who has lead the resurgence of the Dallas defense? Lawrence and the LBs or the secondary
Philly defense goes as their DLine goes.
Bosa and Ingram top dogs for Chargers, although Safety Derwin James might be the last piece to that puzzle.
Again, just because you don't know much about the corners on those teams doesn't mean they aren't great corners. The problem with people like you is that you spend too much time listening to the announcers, who are lazy and often times just read the stat lines. With a defensive lineman, there is a tangible stat that allows for the lazy to be elevated to super star status in the eyes of the fans. With corners, they are great when you never hear their names called.
Michael Davis and Casey Hayward are both very good with the Chargers. Fuller and Amukamara blanketed Thielen and Diggs all day two weeks ago. And like I said last week, the Bears were good before Mack showed up, with Hicks being a mediocre defensive tackle before he showed up to play with the Bears. Now that he's got good corners, he's suddenly gone from relative obscurity to a pro bowler.
As for people backing me, I could care less. If everyone wants to be wrong, have at it.
Good corners are helping Hicks throw interior lineman into the legs of the QB all game long.[&o]
I get that you have to stay with your saying "Defense starts at the corners" but you are getting ridiculous.
Yes, they are. Because he has more time to do his thing. Guys aren't open.
Bears corners were able to sit on routes because their pass rush was causing early release's by the QB. Not rocket science.
It's a different game than 15 years ago fellas. If you don't have guys that can take away the 5-yard slant or 7-yard out, you are dead in 2018. The Bears defensive front has lapped up all the praise because they have good corners. Mack is Mack. He's a great player, regardless. Not rocket science.
Look no further than our game against the Bears. Without Rhodes and Hughes, we had Waynes and a virtual rookie playing. They got beat on short routes repeatedly for first downs and there was nothing our high-priced defensive linemen could do about it. Conversely, our guys were rarely open on the same routes to move the sticks.
