How good is Revis?

i knwo we all know that revis is the best CB in the league. but i just read this littel bit of info and i was absolutely impressed. maybe some of yo ugusy already knew this but i didn't realize the extent of how dominant he was in the play-offs last year against 2 of the best passing offenses in the league. i mean i saw the games and i knew he was playing great but i didn't know it was this great. so i wanted to post this for other peopel who might not have known just how great he was either.

In the second week of the playoffs, Revis and the Jets defeated the AFC's #2 seed the San Diego Chargers, 17-14. Since the San Diego Chargers had a large variety of well acclaimed receivers, Revis was forced to cover most of them. Philip Rivers, the San Diego quarterback, only threw the ball to a receiver covered by Revis three times during the entire game. Two of the three were tipped away by Revis for an incomplete pass, and the third was an interception. His interception was made diving to the ground to catch the ball that was deflected off the shoe of Chargers' wide receiver Vincent Jackson. Revis' interception changed the momentum of the game and was instrumental in the Jets' 17-14 victory. The win led the Jets to the AFC Championship game against the Indianapolis Colts, the Jets first trip to the AFC Championship game since 1998. Unfortunately, the Jets lost 30-17, due to a lack of scoring in the second half (0 points), and poor secondary playing, with the exception of Revis himself, who only allowed 2 receptions.

so 2 games against the chargers and the colts and he only allows 2 receptions? that's incredible.

Peter King posted something like this in his column on SI.com after the Chargers game.

He said Rivers was 1-4 for -4 yards and a pick, on balls thrown to Revis. The one completion was a screen in the backfield to Tomlinson which Revis shut down immediately.

i also forgot to mention that he held ochocinco to 2 receptions for 28 yards in the wildcard game. if you consider that he held ocho to zero catches the week before that that's a grand total of 4 receptions allowed in his last 4 games....3 of those games in the play-offs. the man is immortal.

If there were an NFL Draft held today with all the players in the league, he would very possibly be the #1 overall pick. Especially when you factor in how young he is, and at a cornerstone position.

He'd be the 1st corner taken, but not the first player taken.

that's an interesting model you throw out there 1-7; Brady, Manning, Brees? But when you think about it which position year after year is most in demand?the CBs

that woudl actually be a fun thing to do in the doldrums of the offseason. a mock draft using current nfl players. i'd have to guess that peyton manning would be the first player off the board though.

and you know I was watching NFLN last night and they had a screen shot of that Ginn MNF TD and the player who had the main coverage was #25 Kerry Rhodes-the safety didn't do his job-it shouldn't have been a TD if Rhodes was doing what he was supposed to do-or if he was faster

Anyone know where I can get a hold of the sweatshirt Revis is wearing in PS17's avatar?

Thanks in advance.

i haven't bought a jersey since martin and pennington (i know....mistake, lol).....but if we re-sign revis i might go ahead and buy his.

go ahead and plunk down the $100 Neck-there's no way we let him get away. CB's of his caliber demand 30 million to sign as free agents and he's the best one in the game today

he had an amazing season last year, realistically its going to be almost impossible to re-do that, i love him and know hes the best there is but i hope these ridiculous expectations of under 75 yards allowed and no td's or whatever people expect dont affect his game

I think the opposite is gonna happen. It's a progression since we drafted him. He was great in 2008 and made the pro bowl. He was awesome last year and I think he's going to be even better this year. He's just entering his prime! Not to mention having Cromartie across from him. Madness :D

idk about that. i mean it's gonna be hard to find a tougher group of receivers for him to go up against than themurderer's row he faced last year. randy moss isn't getting any younger. although he does have to face marshall twice a year now.....

and another thing that was mentioned in that State Of The Jets segment last night was now Ryan will be able to switch the coverage up and let Cromartie take the #1 guy on some plays which might actually get Revis more INTs against the #2 guys

i hate this idea......revis needs to lock down the number 1 guy always.

Yeah. It's impossible to understand why Jets fans aren't shaking in their boots now that the great Chad Henne has Brandon Marshall to throw to. No way Revis can handle that. None.

Certainly fans have a tendency to over rate their own players. Not in this case. Cornerback has always been my favorite position and I have seen all of the great ones since the mid sixties. Adderley, Willie Brown, Jim Johnson, Lem Barney, Mike Haynes, Rod Woodson, Deion, Charles Woodson, Champ Baily, to name a few.

Revis could end up the best ever. He is that good.

My son used his lawn mowing and snow shoveling money and bought his all star jersey, for a 14 year old kid it's bad asss.

Wtf, when I was growing up parents used to buy their kids' jerseys for them so they could use their lawn and shoveling money for Genesis games and porno, you know, the stuff you really can't live without at that age. ****ing parents these days...no respect for the needs of little dudes going through puberty.

First off my son has issues when it comes to jerseys. He owns a fair amount and I quit buying them for him after Vilma left. The kids still wear his Johnny Abe authentic, I sorta feel responsible. Truth is my kids aren;t that into video game, they like to play outside, weird huh? Oh yeah if they need pron we keep it in the porn drawer, next to the emergency slim jims.
