Revis lined up against calvin johnson in man coverage on every single play. he held him to 1 catch for 13 yards.
McCourty had a great game, but he didn't shut down calvin johnson. He wasn't asked too. He was asked to cover one side of the field in zone coverage. Johnson was double teamed all day.
No it doesn't. You are being nonsensical.
McCourty played a great game, he didn't shut down johnson. He did well against johnson the very few times he was lined up against him, in zone coverage with a double team, yes.
Again, you don't see Jet fans saying Revis shut down greg jennings...
The quote was, McCourty "shut down megatron". NO HE didn't.
And playing zone with double coverage is different than playing man, whether you only cover one side of the field or not.
Patriots receivers play a zone scheme and johnson was doubled on nearly every play. McCourty may have had an excellent game, but he didn't shut down anyone specifically. Unlike Revis, who lined up exclusivley against him in man coverage and held him to 1 catch all game.
The only reason I keep...
I never claimed other wise. You can say that McCourty had an excellent game, but he didn't "shut down" megatron. Just like Revis didn't "shut down" jennings even though he only allowed 1 catch all game because he wasn't lined up against him exclusivley.
McCourty plays in a conservative zone...
Come on man. McCourty didn't shut down megatron. Jonhnson had 4 catches for 81 yards and a TD. The patriots were double teaming the guy on nearly every play. And this was against a decimated lions team playing their backup QB.
Revis lined up 1 on 1 vs CJ on EVERY PLAY and held him for 1 catch...
Mayo is an Excellent above average player. However, after his rookie year patriot fans were anointing him the next ray lewis. He has not improved dramatically from his great rookie year. You can say he was hampered by injuries all you want, but you are PROJECTING rookies to all pro players...
Revis didn't "struggle" his rookie year. He was incredibly solid and consistent, he was the teams #1 corner from week 1 even though he missed most of training camp. In his second year he was already the teams best player, he was an under the radar name, but those who watched the team closely...
Only pats fans can post on pats boards? I am not a Brady hater, I think he is the second best quaterback of all time. But saying Sanchez isn't clutch because of things that happened before he made game winning drives is extremley hipocritical coming from a pats fan.
Against the browns, he...

He played on Johnson on virtually every snap. Walter wasn't his primary assignment on that play, he tried to recover after a communication error.
He gave up covering the TE because schaub had about 15...
I'm not looking for credibility. I am simply responding with arguments that match how irrational yours are. Tom Brady fumbled in the playoffs against Oakland. Tom Brady threw an interception in the playoffs against the Chargers that was fumbled, last week Tom Brady threw a game losing pass right...
Re: OT: Terrell Owens - "Revis is just an average corner...Revis Island getting expos
Many players have had good Rookie campaigns only to fizzle out or reach their ceiling early (i.e. Jerod Mayo, Brandon Merriweather). Assuming Mcourty is on his way to being the best corner in the game because...
