Also said the late hit on Flacco was a flag. Who is this guy? Is he an NFL ref? It just seems odd for an NFL official to cut off another NFL official at the knees like this. It's usually the league's MO to circle the wagons when it comes to calls.

Not surprised. A lot of officials were upset when this guy with 8 downgrades got the officiating duties for this game.

Jackson wasn't caught using steroids. It was Aderall, which is used to increase concentration.
[/quote]the thing I don't get is why they don't just get a prescription for it. It's not like it would be hard to say you have ADHD.

Good question. Perhaps there isn't sufficient evidence and maybe the NFL really regulates and inspects the use of these medications.

Why do so many people feel like we are strong at corner?

I feel this could be possibly our weakest position going into next year

Unless Jimmy comes out of nowhere and starts playing halfway decent

Webb will be back, and barring any setbacks should return to being our best corner. Not immediately back to his elite stature, but back to a respectable number one corner. Graham has become a good player in the backfield. Chykie Brown and Jimmy, while inconsistent, have shown moments of greatness. We haven't even seen much from Asa Jackson. I think we'll be okay.

I won't be surprised if we shift Graham to FS if Reed doesn't return and play a CB corps of Webb, Brown & Smith.

We'll be fine with Webb, Graham and Brown. If Jimmy only makes plays in Super Bowls then we can keep him around for that too.

That's what I think. Except I really think this is the turning point in Jimmy's career. Hopefully this gives him confidence.

Ideally we would get 3 good corners and a free safety.

Point taken. Here's hoping Asa stops popping Adderall with Sherman, Browner and goodness knows who else.

He has benefited from an outstanding secondary coach and the leadership of guys like Ed Reed. He makes plays but still has some flaws in his game.

Most notably his penalties! However, this is rectifiable. Harbaugh should set the Chykster straight.

[GrimCoconut]

He had a wonderful snow angel in that confetti. My assessment is a 10/10.

Chykie has the chance to be a good CB in this league. Great physical tools, but in all honesty, I would take Jimmy over him any day of the week.

Smith's potential is higher than Webb's. He aint better YET, but could possibly be in the future.

We must never forget the Chykster! How did you like his Super Bowl performance?

[/quote]Up and down similar to the D as a whole but not bad. I think he has a promising future as a possible #2 corner.
