If Wilhite plays, we lose - New England Patriots Forums

This loss can almost single handedly be pinned on this guy. Every pass that Jacoby Jones (#12) caught, was on Wilhite. He is absolutely terrible. He has no confidence and no coverage skills. He's gritty and tough, but so are many other dudes on the unemployed line.

Get the SOB out of there please.

what happened to Wheatley? Is he hurt, or just that far down the depth chart?

Who said we don't need cornerbacks?

My point exactly. We need cornerbacks. We don't need doormats like Wilhite. He is probably worse than Ellis Hobbs. Absolutely pitiful.

Agreed

It was embarrassing him watching him run around aimlessly and by 5 yds+ off his man

This guy sucks period.

The Hobbs trade was a mistake. Even though I like Springs/Bodden/Butler alot, after that it's a bit shaky and an injury could make that a factor. And we really could have used him on KR.

I'm really not sure what to make of Wilhite. He was playing 10 yards off the WR all day against the Texans. But was he 'playing the technique' and the 'scheme' or was he just really that inept today? He used to look like a pretty decent football player.

zipster9 · 01-03-2010, 04:13 PM

Wilhite is probably a nickel. He cannot cover above-average WRs. The gets torches alot. Wheatley is no better.

Problem is Meriweather should have helped him cover. But, he did not play his position well today. I see Meriweather covering late, in todays game.

Sigh. If only we can have 1 shutdown-corner....

Last SB win was with TyLaw, a first-round pick.

Not true. He was hurt and missed half the season and the playoffs.
