Coach.....give it a rest. You don’t even know what you are talking about 95% of the time when it’s agenda driven. Your replies pretty much showcases the diarrhea of the mouth condition you have. As for your top 50. Who gives a flip about that? Hardly anyone. (So don’t think you need to start a thread on it).
I haven’t seen any coach film (or even game film for that matter) on Johnson. I know you haven’t either....that is about the only fact there is. Watching clips of select positive plays doesn’t mean squat.
These are your words...” I said Allen is slow and his production as a box thumper box safety role was poor vs the pass . Compare him to others on the same role. You will see. A fact. “
Enlighten us....what games did you watch Coach? On how many game film did you see Allen get abused? The Senior Bowl? Where he was playing in a unfamiliar system, coaches and players?
Oh that’s right, you taped Senior Bowl practices and watched the 20 odd snaps each player may have gotten in the actual Bowl game. That out weighs 4 years of game/coach film. How was Johnson’s Senior Bowl film? Oh wait, he wasn’t there was he? So what game film are using to compare his play?
Johnson was a pure boundary cover corner. Hence all the PDs. Minimal run coverage player. Different position altogether compared to Allen.
You don’t know jack about schemes or tendencies which dictate how defenses are used. So take your penny logic and talk to your pet about it. It’s worth about the same.
What is the primary role of a box safety? Defending the run. If you watched any GAMES dork you would see Allen’s playmaking was predominantly near the line of scrimmage attacking the run or being a thumper safety on R/O. On coverage plays Franklin had Allen playing as an extra LB, so he had underneath responsibilities to tackle the receiver at the least. He played that role so well he racked up over 350+ tackles at Penn St. He wasn’t a primary coverage safety, and to compare him to others in HIS same role he was an All American during his collegiate career. He wasn’t coveted for his “ball skills” as anyone who understands defensive schemes, but highly valued as a downhill defender who made stops and caused turnovers.
I have no clue.....hah! GTFOH. Do you know whose mantra derives from keeping an offensive player in front of the defense backs and tackle? A HOF player/coach. Dick LeBeau’s coverage defense was built on “tackle the catch if you can’t stop the catch”. So you are laughing at a guy who has forgotten more football knowledge than you could ever imagine to retain. So it is true you laugh. Just like a idiot laughing boy.
Great that you took several days to reply........but I have to be honest, your BS is getting boring, ignorant and redundant.
