Rhodes is so underrated 

[blkbigdog35 8,563]

Good stuff and much respect to Xavier.  Should be a great battle between him and Julio but we have CR, Mo and Hoop so Matt will be spreading the ball around for sure.

[Jesus 18,837]

Whatever.

If Julio is covered Sanu and Ridley are not.

Good luck to any team with one decent CB.

Lol by who? Most people know he’s a top five corner.

 

edit: him putting the clamps on obj a few years back was when he got put on notice

I’ve never seen him mentioned by anyone as a top 5. It’s always the big names who are mostly overrated

I can’t name four corners better than him. Him, Harrison, and Griffen are the heart of that defense.

Watching games live on tv or in person, I know when Julio’s getting the ball too.  You still gotta be able to stop him.

[TheFatboi 27,611]

The thing is will he cover Julio for 60 min by himself without help? Nobody ever does. If he can do that it will be a tough day.

Yes sir. Absolutely. He will have help at times on the back end and the front. The front coming in the form of pressure thru the A gap which Zimmer loves to do.

Yea he loves that double A gap.

Rhodes regressed quite a bit last year.  He was targeted 3rd most vs top receivers and allowed 62% completion rate.  Was it nagging injuries or age finally catching up?  

My bet is Julio will receive bracket coverage this time around.

He did last time we played too. Nobody has covered Julio for 60 minutes with no help. There’s always bracket coverage in zone or help over top in man. I didn’t realize he was attacked like that last season tho.

How old is he? He 29 or 30?

If he does its only because the ball going elsewhere. Not because he's "blanketed" Take out the teams best cb, isolate him, and attack with the litany of other weapons elsewhere. Minnesota has a good defense but they are going to need us to shoot ourselves with penalties to win. I think our defense is good enough to force Minn to attem of several f.g. Offensive penalties could easily do the same to us.  I predict a 17-16 win for us.

Everything I see says he allowed a 57% catch rate, where did you see 62%?

I doubt it's age then. Must have been an injury. If say yes close to 100% now.
