Petey reeves starting opposite daunti !!! Why?????

[coytexan]

Ok, Why, in the heck is Reeves starting opposite Daunta???!!! At this point the season is over. We are playing for pride and to evaluate are young players for next year. We already know how Reeves plays. That is he sucks and always gets burned. I know we payed him alot of money but we just need to admit our mistake and cut him loose. One of the reasons we suck on defense so bad is because of him. We need to get Molden in with 6 games left and get him going. there have been too many times in kubiaks era when he says he wished he played a player more the previous year. Don't make the same mistake with molden. As I said with 6 games to play and nothing to lose why not start Molden? Who knows. All I know is sorry Petey Reeves shouldn't be starting .

We don't have a Petey Reeves. We have a Jacques Reeves and a "Petey" Faggins. Faggins is too slow and Reeves wouldn't know when to look for the ball if the receiver held up a sign for him.

However, the answer to your question is that our DC is Richard Smith.

HJam, it's possible our fellow fan may be a young one based on word selection.

Or he's refering to the fact, that both suck, and neither should don a NFL uniform!

Oh, and fire Richard Smith NOW!

You want to throw out a rookie as one of our starting cornerbacks?

That is just ignorant of the situation we are currently in. The fact is Reeves has been the best corner we've had most of the season. Bennett has completely fallen off from his rookie season and Faggins while definitely better then last year is still easily burnt by fast receivers. Reeves while often picked on for not turning his head is at least within the area to make the stop more often or not before they get a bunch of yards after the catch.

Be happy the coaches think Dunta is able to return to one side of the field as a starter. Although this means that Reeves will be the targeted corner, he is far from the worst player in our entire defense.

Well I am praying that Molden plays well enough that they end up benching Reeves by the second half. I know it is a reach but I can dream.

I love how you spelled both their names...

I did consider that, but I figured I'd play along.
