Default Moss hasn't faced a guy like this

Antonio Cromartie. He's a freakishly gifted specimen at the cb position. He didn't start until week 10 but he leads the league in interceptions and interceptions returned for tds. He's 6'3" tall, runs a 4.3 second 40 yard dash, has a huge verticle leap, long arms, and great hands. He can also throw a football 80 yards, which just shows how physically gifted the guy is. Randy Moss is also a freakishly gifted athlete but he picks on the less gifted corners of the league. Now it's time for him to take on Antonio Cromartie!


Look at how high he can jump:





Sorry Manning, you aren't going to complete a pass on me:

Cromartie is athletic but 1) he usually plays on the right side of the defense which is the opposite side from Moss and 2) isn't a polished cover guy, he usually gives room and feasts on mistakes.

He did a great job covering Reggie Wayne both times we played the Colts this year, and will probably be moved to the left side to cover Moss. We won't come with the same game plan we did in week 2. This time Moss will match up against Cromartie.

Yeah except he only got his INT because Manning threw a horrible pass, Wayne was wide open. Your comments kinda remind me of another freakish athlete at corner Deion Sanders. Great corner and athlete but when matched up against a great receiver such as say Jerry Rice he was beaten like a drum twice a year. I see the same thing happening here.

Did you forget the other three interceptions that he got on Manning for a total of 4 interceptions on Manning this season?

Wow you're right. Moss can't light a candle next to this guy. He should just give up.

As I said, Cromartie is not a great cover corner, he's a great athlete. If the ball is thrown as intended, as Brady usually does, he'll give up yards.

Cromartie only gets picks from average QBs.

Brady is not kitna, VY, culpepper, manning and whoever was throwing for KC and Houston
