Minkah hasnt done anytning yet lol, clearly wasnt the best cb in draft like everyone thought.. hump, swear this man is overrated by this fan base
Wasnt white picked after him? .. haha is an avg S and thats a fact, so we avg players are what we want in 1st rnd, thats cool.. Mark barron was terrible at S. Not one single bama defenser has lived up to the hype. Collins, is pretty decent. Now thats a decent 2nd rnder that i wouldnt mind.. rest of them since nick saban era have been nobodies..

He's been talked up by way more than just this fan base and not just PFF. Same with Fitzpatrick. You need to take the blindfold off.

Minkah has been used as a weapon all over the field.

ward's been great too...
why does ward being great make minkah not great?

you've given me no examples or stats or anything of any kind that suggests minkah has not been playing at a high level

im never gonna post stats thats not what i go by . Even though minkah has a low passer rating and all that bs, id still take ward over him at cb and even donte jackson. Both have better ball skills and has played much better wrs this yr than minkah..when i watched minkah i didnt really see many cvg snaps from him. It was him covering the slot guy basically running down hill to make the tackle on little outs and stuff which he excels at like a mf.. i didnt get to see him cover a number 1 or 2 wr.. the other dolphin games i watched i just wasnt paying attention to him so idk what he did.

you don't go by stats or QBr yet you say every time you watch him he is getting beat, which is clearly incorrect as rossi posted his exact number of receptions and yards. You do really need to get a new prescription and have your eyes checked. You are entitled to your opinion, but your opinion is really skewed.

I was referring to college days when i said he was getting beat alot, just wasnt clear about it.

so then if you werent paying attention and when you were he was doing his job well then why are you asserting that he hasnt been everything that ive said he is (and then backed up with stats - you're right that stats arent the be-all-end-all but im using them to support my arguments and support what im seeing)

if you want to assert an opinion and someone counters it - you have to show evidence of some sort - that can be stats, it can be examples, it can be specific plays, it can even be things other coaches and journalists have said but you have to show something to back up your wild claims...

but im glad youve now admitted you werent paying attention

but you insinuated that that continued into the pros - or are you now withdrawing those earlier statements about minkah having done nothing since he entered the nfl?

Marlon has been great? Lmao. great is t white.i said minkah hasnt done anything yet cause its early and when i watch dolphins game its really notbing going on neither side of ball so i gave him a pass. I usually dont care about pff stats but i know you guys do.... minkah is 4th graded rookie cb, however that same list didnt even have donte jackson on it. None
Of those guys listed are consistently good as expected coming out and how a 1st rmder should be

Passer Rating Allowed when targeted, Marlon Humphrey at 53.5 last year as a rookie. He's been very good in coverage. More than worth his mid first draft pick.

As for Fitzpatrick, he's been even better in his rookie year. https://www.profootballfocus.com/ne...-coverage-ability-demonstrate-elite-potential

well ill go one better

have the ravens ever lost flacco for a game and been excited about the qbs behind him - excited enough to expect to win a game without flacco...

Nope never. I’ll say too I went into this season still with the false hope that better health and better weapons was going to make Flacco our clear guy to have out there all year and if he really propelled us then maybe even next year.

I felt perhaps that was still the case but as the season has worn on I’ve given up on that concept. We’ve never had anyone to get excited about behind him but now there is at least some hope.
 
Hey, guys, as much as I love to see Deebo embarrass himself by showing zero knowledge of what he's talking about on this topic, this is a Joe Flacco thread. Please keep it on topic or I'll just start deleting posts and then handing out warnings.

True, if you’d like, instead of deleting you can move them to the random thought thread

What i said wont change though. He hasnt done amything for me to say he is different from
Anyother bama cb. He isnt brilliant to me. When i watched him, he didnt look brilliant. He looked literally just like bama cbs.. play better when the play is in front of them.

I cant embarrass self.. time will tell. But yea i got

I think Joe will probably give us the best chance to win tomorrow if he is healthy enough to play. When I say healthy enough, I mean that he can play at a good level with his pain. If he is effected by this injury where it could compromise the game, he needs to sit out and let RG3 or Lamar take the field. I hope he makes the right decision.

I got us winning tomorrow especially if aj green dont play. Much as i think rg3 is a bad qb, i think we could still win with him at qb also.

As banged up as we are, I think we may be lucky to be catching the Bengals at the right time. I think RG3 could win this game for us.
