Cromartie Anyone?

[R0CKnR0LLA]

I'd make a move on Rodgers-Cromartie in a second if the Cardinals were shopping him but not this guy.

Goodson will be Reggie Bush 2.0. Fast and quick as hell but not much of a inside runner.

Only if we could sign him for cheap and he was a nickel corner.

Captain > Cromartie as a nickle. I like players who can tackle other players instead of being a little bitch.

[Wither]

HELL no. Gamble/Marshall are both better than Cromartie. You know why? Cromartie is bitch that is afraid of making contact. He's one of those players who instead of making contact to break up a pass, he'll use his athleticism to try and make a highlight reel pick. While he makes the occasional big play, he gives up so many, I don't want that.

Here are some pictures to show how afraid Cromartie is to make contact..

^that's him being afraid to make a tackle and giving up a touchdown run that gave Jets a 2 score lead.

^that's him being afraid to push the pile, giving Jets a first down and essentially securing the game.

He is fast, can jump high, and is one of the most athletic CB's in the league, but none of that matters if he is afraid to DO HIS JOB and make tackles. No thanks at him being a Panther.

While I agree, it is quite possible he did not push the pile in the case that the runner broke free and he was to stop a long run. I doubt it, but it's possible.

Those two "videos" are concrete proof that he is not needed. Nice post.

[Delhommey]

Yep. Corners who can't play the run have no business in the Cover 2 or Panther Blue.

[Kevin Greene]

Cromartie is being shopped because of the above videos and he's a bad citizen to boot.

Hell no we don't want him.

A shame, he has tremendous talent when he applies it.

the thing is though, it didn't matter if he broke out a long run. that run was on 4th and 1, with less than 2 minutes left and Chargers were out of timeouts. It was either stop that 1 yard run or the game was over, and he was too much of a coward to help.

I know, hence why I said I doubted it.

Was just suggesting an alternative theory.

This is true.

[hepcat]

Is Cromartie really an upgrade over Marshall? I think it's close to a wash.

Yeah I understand what you were saying. If this were just a one time thing where he didn't join in and try to make a tackle then it wouldn't be a big deal, but some Charger fan friends I know say he has been doing it ALL YEAR. Giving up big plays so he could go for a high light reel play. I don't want a player like that anywhere near a Panthers uniform.

And where do you think Reggie Bush would be on a Fox team??On the bench.lol it would require fox not to be so conservative to use him.

[Yaboychris28]

most people propably dont know this and propably wont believe me but when cromartie went to florida state he could barely read. i dont want someone with that low of an iq he will just make mistakes
