Anyone else think...

..That Rivera's starting CB's are going to be ,CB1 Chris Gamble, CB2 Cletis Gordon?

... They both have similar build and Gordon is a Rivera guy. He's seen him in SD and knows what he's capable of. Is this why, maybe, just maybe, we aren't going after a vet guy?

Thoughts? Also, I trust in Rivera, he knows Defenses. If he's not too worried about the position then I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.

[PanthersGuy28]

No

[smitty_89]

Right now I'm just giving him the benefit of the doubt...I'll be happy no matter who he chooses

Captian is the number 2 corner, unless he plays terrible as the season progresses. He has pretty much been the number 2 corner since he got here and the staff thought Marshall was better at the Nickel.

Is Munnerlyn perfect? Far from it but he is the 2nd best corner on this team as of now. That of coarse could change.

I dunno about Cletis starting, but I agree that Rivera should be trusted regarding the defense. The point was made in another thread that Rivera made a #1 overall defense out of a bunch of no names last year and then someone replied "they weren't no names, they had _____ and _____ and _____" and proceeded to list like 4 or 5 no names and Weddle. I agree with the first point. Rivera really did seem to make the most out of the players he had to work with in SD. If he thinks we're good at CB, I'll take his word for it for now.

Why did you not resign Marshall?

You have Roddy White, Julio Jones, and Mike Williams in your division.

What the previous HC and staff thought about players is now completely irrelevant.

No one knows what Rivera and McDermott think about Capt.

I have a feeling we have a Ricky Manning Jr. from 2003 type player on the team this year.

[BeasonBeastingBacks]

I think....

ITS TIME TO PANIC

I would hope so. We need that right now, like bad.

[Boltergeist]

That would be asking a lot, since Fetus was never anything more than a dime in San Diego

Leave him alone! He's an endangered species, a Falcons fan that's not retarded.

And to answer your question spotondtan, Marshall wasn't as good as the paycheck he apparently wanted. I figure Rivera and McDermott figure the guys behind him on the depth chart can do as good a job as he could.
