He certainly is still a quality player. I don't get why so much hate on the board for him. He left for more money. How was the end of 2014 any different that what he's been doing his whole career? We've gotten so used to people wanting to stay here and hometown discounts and all that. Some guys don't see it that way. Are we going to blast Collins or High if either leaves for more money? I know it's not exactly apples to apples, but it's close enough.
We won a SB with Revis and, contrary to what anyone wants to believe or say, he was a HUGE factor. He transformed the D and for the first time in MANY YEARS we saw the exotic schemes again. We saw an aggressive D again. There were probably more coverage sacks in 2014 than any other year recently (I have no numbers to support that). We got what we needed out of him and Revis did the same thing Casillas and Ayers and Hicks, et. al. did. And at the end of the day we only lost the AFCCG by two points. And I know you can say it for just about any game, but one or two things go differently and we're in the SB again WITHOUT Revis. I appreciate him for what he meant to that 2014 team, a very special team. Even BB said it right on the podium after winning the SB and many times prior to even making the playoffs that season. Revis is about as alright with me as a Jets player can be.
