The Indy 500 is how many yards he gives up in 3 games.

Would not be surprised if he has a bounce back year.

People were way too hard on him.

He wasn’t good by any means, but just like Reiff, people remember the glaringly bad plays and ignoring the periods of okay to good play.

Were they putting him in different spots than when he was an all-pro?

He could probably work as a cover 2 corner. His days of being a good man to man corner are over. Seemed real slow and not very quick last year.

I'm surprised he got that much and a guy like Nickell Robey-Coleman only gets a little over a million.

Please. This system helped him become an all pro. He simply just lost many steps.

Who is Colts other CB? That is a big deal. If they are good Rhodes will have bad year because teams will concentrate on him.

If the other side is bad, they can share in attention.

I thought our pass defense was pretty good in the playoffs. We held Brees to season low 8 yd per completion and the 9ers ran the ball down our throats. We have a lot to replace, but we may already have the replacements on our team. As far as Rhodes go, he was usually left out on an island in single man coverage. Those days are over. He will need help against the smaller quicker WRs.
