[QUOTE="No_Hablo_Ingles"]How good is DRC (cards DB)? I hear good things about him... then I look at the stats (not just interceptions but completion % when throw to the guy he was guarding, YPC given up, etc. and am underwhelmed by his production.1nf4m0us
He had a good first couple of years in the league... was very much apart of the defence that helped the Cardinals get to the superbowl, and then had a pro bowl worthy effort in 2009. And his stats reflect that, as teams were reluctant to throw to the guy he was covering. But then last season he played incredibly badly (I think in no small part due to the Cardinals trying to shift to a 3-4 scheme with a terrible DC, and not having a good enough pass rush, plus the defence having to be on the field so much because of the terrible offense). He wasnt able to cover anyone and teams had a great time throwing against him.
I think in Ray Horton (our new DC) 's scheme (basically the Blitzburgh scheme), he would thrive. He has the tools, is one of the fastest players in the league, and is very good at the point of the catch when intercepting balls.
Like i said, he has the tools to be a top 5 corner in this league if he plays in the right scheme (and puts on some muscle and starts tacking people), so it would be a shame to see him leave.
Not entirely sure how, but I failed to mention he injured his knee in the Cardinals Divisional playoff loss to the Saints, and wasnt completely healthy until about week 14/15.
