doesn't surprise me.

I know many disagree.

Cota was great. Terrel Iis forgettable.

Minter and McCree? Two strong safeties? I won't even consider such silliness.

Grant was widely inconsistent. I'll take Godfrey over him.

 

That Minter/McCree dua was pretty good. I donno about Grant though.

No tandum can beat the 2003 safety positions of Minter and Grant. It's sad that that is debatable. Just proves we haven't had a lot of star power at the position since our conception. Godfrey has always been a terrible safety. Sure he can tackle pretty good, but the primary job of a safety is to cover and he is very poor at coverage. The conerbacks aren't at fault for his play, he is just terrible at it. For me, I'm hoping for a Mikell/Mitchell tandem this upcoming season. I don't know if Mitchell would be worlds better than Godfrey, but I know Godfrey is bad. However, I know that won't happen since the coaches seem to like Godfrey's "fire" so to speak.

minter and mccree are both the definition of strong safeties.

We started them both out of necessity.

It worked well enough.

Godfrey is more of a free safety. One of the best the panthers have had, despite the constant hate he gets.

Like I said, I'll take two talented starting safeties that fit their responsibilities better than two strojg safeties, with one of them playing the free safety position.

Could say the same thing about Godfrey and Mikell. Godfrey is also a SS/FS and many on here would believe that he's a better SS than FS.

I think the primary strength you look for in a safety these days is how well he can cover but thats not his primary job man, cmon.

 

Its incredibly difficult to evaluate safeties because of their actual primary job, compensate for weak areas of the D. Godfrey makes plays and gives up plays. Idk, he looks good to me when I watch him play.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      I only used it because it’s being said he can’t.  I’ve said this 100 times already but these deep passes people get obsessed with are much more on the WR than the QB. If Burrow throws a bomb to Chase and he is either wide open or makes a catch in tight coverage those both are more WR plays than QB to me.  Bryce has shown many flaws but I don’t think throwing the ball 20 yards to a player in coverage is something he or any NFL QB can’t do. He just gets sloppy under pressure and tries some Mahomes type backfoot throws that do require elite arm strength in which he does not have.

      Again with the straw man arguments. You have Trump level of delusions about this subject.  Here, let me do you in this case.... I don't know if AT fuged your girl or your wife or whatever but your level of hatred towards a guy not even on the team is insane. I can't believe you keep hate watching all these Vikings games as a result. It's crazy behavior but, by all means, you do you.   Now...see how nutty that sounds? Go read this thread and see how emotional you are over something no one in this thread is talking about emotionally.
