Don't forget that he's a "system" QB and he's subpar at best if you take him away from the "system"

We knew this years ago. Samuel is the king of getting beat on a juke on 3rd and 9.

We mistook Samuel for a physical guy back in 2005 when he laid that killer hit on Jeb Putzier. He was always a poor open field tackler, low contact and poor instincts.

The guy figured out how to jump a route, and made $50 million off of it. Good for him.

The Eagles starting combo of Samuel and Hobbs will keep them out of the Super Bowl.

jumping routes requires instinct.

Actually, I think Hobbs is capable of doing that all by himself.

Asante isn't much of a tackler--neither was Deion Sanders.

I can believe you typed this, but I can't believe you hit submit...

Does this stat make you feel better? Jason Allen may be the "best tackling DB", but he has been a flat out bust in Miami. This Asante Samuel obsession is getting weird.
