I think it was because he gave up on the play for a second when the catch was made. Also DRC is much faster and is less likely to get burnt deep like that. I think it's fair to say that Green has been less than stellar this year.

Again I go with Ashmouga myself and actually others this year as he is not playing up to the hype he generated himself(did you see his game against Brandon Marshall this season?)

And the fact that he didn't start his first year is more situational and based on circumstance. When he was drafted he fell because he tore his ACL early in his senior season at FSU and was picked because of what he would become rather then what he was. Much like Willis McGahee.

And his second year he was playing behind two studs in Florence and Jammer and HE STILL led the league in INT's and gave flashes that he was a stud for years to come.

So that goes back to my point and I recant on this note. If he had not gotten into the starting line up this year but had 5 INT's and changed a couple games then I would be very encouraged about that as well.

So the starting I guess is semantics. Can't I just say I am excited he is starting and beating out a vet in Green? That's what I was hoping for when he was drafted but not all that certain about it because he was deemed a "project"..

Geez people I am happy here. Your taking my words but missing my overlying point and playing the "well theres a lot of CB's who become stars who didn't start their first year - so your wrong" (although i would think the actual number of that is actally happening is minimal).

I think he is going to be a star and this is encouraging in furthering that belief.

That. And he fakes injuries when he does get beat.

Glad to see DRC starting.

He's not ready to start, he still doesn't react well when the ball is in the air. That TD by Holt he had perfect coverage,just froze when the ball was in the air.

I think he has the tools to be good but needs more coaching up. Fine with playing him regularly but starting him concerns me, I think he'll get picked on quite a bit.

Actually this I agree with. But I am encouraged that the coaches see him as someone who would perform at a higher level then Green already. Last weeks catch aside I though Green was playing quite well.

Is all of this speculation or is someone actually reporting that DRC is starting this week? I haven't seen it reported anywhere else but here.
