Revis Declining?

I believe the year of his lis frank injury was his best or second best year. The issue is most people can't distinguish between declined play, and that guy sucks. His play declined in Tampa as expected after a very serious injury. His true talent level was merky in new England because he was moved all over the place, which worked. However, that movement makes an accurate assessment difficult.

He was clearly better last year than the year before, and he now had a full healthy season plus, to go into the off season not having to worry about rehab should lead to another up year in 2015.
You have to remember the revis of 2011 was on another planet, teams put the best receivers they had up against him, and came out with 1 or 0 catches.

His intelligence is insane, his instinct is rare, his speed is scary, his cornering will break ankles. That complete package is revis' greatness. After his injury he lost a step and some ability to change direction as quickly. But a down year for revis is still hof material.

I will admit, I was back and forth on him in new England, did bill move him around to hide a weakness and play up his strength, I would say so. But that doesn't mean revis needs to be hidden by schemes.
We won't know until we see him back in week 1.
Even if he is regressed to an amazing number 2, you won't notice in our secondary this year. And remember we are only on the hook for 2 years with him, and 1 year for cro, which means in 3 years we can have a complete revamped secondary with some of bowls draft picks sprinkled in.

Thoughts on this article from PFF? I know a few people on here probably agree and have argued that Revis wasn't always covering the #1 receiver under Belichick but I still think he's the best CB in the game.

BB would routinely misuse Revis and I believe that may have been a small part of him wanting to leave. He used Revis a good bit in zone and that is just stupidity. BB is an idiot for doing something insanely idiotic. Greg Schiano did the same when he was playing for the Bucs.

Hopefully, Bowles knows how to use Revis correctly. Darrelle Revis is a numbers advantage, pure and simple. You should always put him man on the opposing teams best WR and do not give him any Safety help over the top. He demonstrated many times in the past that he will lock down the WR, thereby freeing up the Safety to be utilized at the LOS or in other coverage assignments.

Revis can do it all, including play zone if you need, but using him in that manner is beyond dumb and Bellichick was no exception at times.

In regards to people contending that Revis is slipping? Well, I haven't seen that at all. No one in the media has said anything than he is likely still the best corner in the game. I think that was mostly an unfounded claim by Jets fans that didn't want him.:rolleyes:

Scarlett Johannson?
Please, pick someone that's at least sorta beautiful without makeup and pushup bras.

Revis has a special ability to swivel his torso 90 degrees perpendicular to his line of travel without losing a tick of his speed.
Most people do not realize how dikafawt that is to do, unless they've actually tried to do it themselves.
It's virtually impossible for most human beings.
So long as he can continue to do it, thus keeping one eye on his prey and the other on his nemesis (the QB), he'll continue to be the best CB in the NFL and maybe in NFL history.
There has been no shrinkage of Revis Island due to global warming, rising sea levels, knee injury, or any other causes.

If you went to the trailer park, or any local Walmart, you'd see 20 of those (at Walmart, 3 or 4 of the girl you come across that look like Elle will be working there...you know, like Erin Brockovich). We have different taste.

What you heard was a fan base that saw how he performed in Tampa, and, along with coming off a bad knee injury, issued criticism.

Was there bad blood? Yes. Of course there would be in that situation.

I would like to see one post, though, where you refrain from attacking Jets fans.

Where am I attacking Jets fans? Are you actually going to tell me there weren't a ton of Jets fans razing Patriots fans that "Revis was washed up", "Revis isn't what he used to be", are you kidding me? There are hundreds of post all over the web that back that up. So no stating a fact isn't attacking Jets fans, nor was it my intention, in fact went out of my way to post what I saw from Revis last year, and that was he specifically isn't in decline in my opinion. Why would I say that if my intention was to attack Jet fans? The paranoia here is amazing, no matter what I post, somehow it's deciphered to be a secret attack on Jet fans, it's comical. Look, I'm a Pats fan, growing up my father took me to Pats games, not Jets games. As a result of course I'm going to be pro Patriot as Jets fans are going to pro Jet, that doesn't mean there can't be civil discussion. Although with all fan bases there are those that simply are not capable of having a civil debate, and that's on them not me.

I dislike Bill Belichek as much as any other Jets poster, but do say BB misused Revis on Defense is utterly insane. BB is a master of running Defenses. Revis is a top man to man cover corner and he can play zone with the best of them. BB used Revis to the strength of his Defense. I do believe the Patriots just won a Superbowl and Revis was a big part of it. If you think Revis wanted to leave the Pats because of misusing him on Defense, think again. Revis went with the $$$$$ and always does.
