    I believe he's not doing that because he doesn't want to get beat deep. If he presses at the line that's a sure way to get beat. He's not as fast anymore.

    Haven't read the whole thread yet but Revis looks 10-15lbs heavier this year. Not fat just like he bulked a little in the off season. Wonder if that's accurate and if that could be affecting his speed.

    As opposed to the way he's been demonstrably getting beat deep the last season plus? Sign me up.

    Social media really helps people connect... and makes virtually everyone a little more anxious and unhappy than they would be without it.

    That's the truth. When it gives a voice to that idiot JR Smith the quality of everyone's life goes down, lol

    Here are the ranks of some of the teams in longest passes allowed for the
    past few seasons, from shortest to longest:

    In 2012 1-2.Buff&SF 53 3.SD 55 4.Sea 56 5-6 Jck&Bal 59.....30.Jets 83
    In 2013 1. chi 48 2. clev 50 3. Tenn 55 4.Giants 56...20.KC&Jets 77
    In 2014, 1.Kc 48 2-3. Det&NE 50 4-5. Buf&TB 56...31.Jets 87
    In 2015 1-2. KC&Hou 55 3-4. Oak&Phil 59 5.TB 60....16-17-18 Jets&Minn&SD 72

    So the Jets have been in the middle or bottom of long pass plays allowed
    with and without Revis, so I'm not so sure it's just Revis. Our backfield
    may not be that great, or the current one may not have played together enough.

    The numbers are from ESPN's stats page.

    Based on what? Even in his best season he wasn't the best defensive back in the league, as Charles Woodson won the defensive player of the year award that year.

    If you take a look at defensive backs who got into the Hall in the past 20 or so years:

    Darrell Green - 20 seasons, 54 INTs, 6 INTs in the playoffs
    Mike Haynes - 14 seasons, 46 INTs, 1 INT in the playoffs
    Ronnie Lott - 14 seasons, 63 INTs, 9 INTs in the playoffs
    Deion Sanders - 14 seasons, 53 INTs, 5 INTs in the playoffs
    Aeneas Williams - 14 seasons, 55 INTs, 6 INTs in the playoffs
    Rod Woodson - 17 seasons, 71 INTs, 1 INT in the playoffs

    Revis thus far: 9 seasons, 28 INTs, 3 INTs in the playoffs

    Do you really think he's gonna get to at least 40 INTs? I doubt he would even make it to the ballot with less than 40.

    Revis would have more picks if opposing QBs had been willing to throw the ball to his man.

    Yes because QBs around the league were so anxious to throw at Deion.

    Running away from tackles didn't hurt...

    In 10 or so years hardly anyone will remember that but his stats will always be there.

    I'm not saying that Revis is the GOAT, just that he deserves serious consideration for the Hall.

    If Revis continues to play bad the rest of this year just like last year, that will most certainly damage his self proclaimed lock to the hall of game. When players get voted into the hall, they look at juicy stats and im sure the low INT number will definitely hurt Revis unless he plays another 6-7 more years.

    Not to take anything away from Sanders, but Sanders always lined up against opposing #2 WR's while his coaching staff rolled coverage over to #1's for help on that side.

    Darrelle Revis is without question a lock for 1st Ballot H.O.F.

    It's all about the stats. Just look at who's made it to HOF.
