Re: 5'9" Rookie CB Brandon Flowers vs. 6'4" Randy Moss - Is this the expected matchu
I followed the one link Chris Price had posted where Surtain was talking about the eyes of his two rookies (Flowers and nickelback Brandon Carr) getting big watching film of Moss and Welker - very amusing. As BB and SP have both opined, the height mismatch is overblown, where Moss will have an advantage is speed - Flowers fell as far as he did because he's one of the slower CBs in the 08 draft class. Flowers' quickness is better than Randy's, and he's not afraid to stick his nose in anywhere - he may lose a jump ball now and again, but jump balls also set up the WR for a big hit. I expect Flowers to play well, within the limits of his experience and coaching (Yeh Herm!, Go Team!).
