BigRon281 summed up many of your feelings in response to this post on the post-Dunta Robinson Texans secondary from Friday.
He’s right, of course. DeMeco Ryans, Brian Cushing and Bernard Pollard can provide plenty of swagger and the Texans need exactly the corner he described.
I was saying that a guy who can cover a No. 1 receiver and pick off some passes would naturally have swagger and confidence, and that those elements help infuse a secondary with confidence.
I wasn’t saying I wanted another guy whose post tackle celebration could spill over into the next play, leaving his defense unprepared, as Robinson did last season and I documented here.
Texans need a guy who can cover a #1 WR and more than 0 INTs. Get swag from DeMeco + Cush, and w/ Pollard on the back end.
