The New York Jets already had 2009's best corner…in Darrelle Revis. And now they have 2007's best: Charger cast-off Antonio Cromartie. Problem is, that was '07, this is 2010. And he's not the same cat. No where near it. And no one hyped the guy like I did back in '07. Back then he was the perfect cover. He was the future. Deion 2.0. Scary talent…track speed….crazy ball skills. Whether he was one-handing Peyton Manning or housing field goals, you saw #31 in every highlight package. And you still do. Only, they're no longer his highlights. They're everyone else's. Now, he's always the guy with the freaky straight-line speed who's trying to run down a "house call" from behind, but is rarely able to do so. The other thing is he's joining a defense that is known for lighting up suckers, knocking out chumps, smoking fools and talking noise. And now Cromartie is known for talking noise. In fact, I think the biggest snot-bubbler he delivered last year was the one he handed out 5 yards deep in the end zone on his new teammate Shonn Greene. It’s go time 'A.C.', because for every deep ball you see next season, you're going to see twice as many toss sweeps coming to your side. Better strap it up. |
