Looking like Champ and DJ Williams are gonna play

If anything, I think that having Champ Bailey back will help Steve Smith. When a player has a supposed "shutdown corner", they tend to try to go one on one with Smitty. That's when he does his damage.

It may slow down our running game though, since they will most likely stack eight in the box.

To play devil's advocate, didn't Nnamdi Asomugha go one-on-one with Smith most of the Oakland game?

Asomugha is what Champ Bailey was 5 years ago.... he is the current SHUT DOWN corner in the league
bailey ins't the CB that is to be feared anymore. asomugha is much better than bailey.

imo.....champ bailey = rhonde barber. used to be awesome. now gonna get abused.

just cause champ is back doesn't mean he is healthy, either. he hsa been hurt a lot this year and it isn't likely that he is going to be anywher close to 100% which, even at that, is nowhere near where he used to be. go look at his stats and see how often QBs throw at the man he is covering. they aren't afraid to throw in his direction....not like they are asomugha.

Champ Bailey is still studly. If I remember rightly from the Denver games I've seen though, they tend to follow our system of keeping Bailey on one side (the same side as Gamble - which is the strong side I think). As we move Smith about a lot I'm sure he'll find some favourable matchups.

agreed, he always manages to get some good match ups on his side.

    • I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50. 
    • And don’t worry about Bryce he will be great… Peyton Manning had a horrible rookie year too 😂
    • Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
