Drew Coleman released by Jags

Brings me back to our Fox conversation and why I am behind Berry but not Fox. Dude has to show me something, no development there at all. Berry, yes injuries, bad games, but he flashes.
 
Everybody liked Berry until the final game of last year. He dropped 2 sure INT`s and wasn`t sorry about it. He acted like a fn prick about it actually.

I actually like him a bit. He needs to man-up though....

I've always disliked him and his game. Mostly because everyone hypes him into Revis because they worked out together once and attended the same university.





BTW..



His name is Senior Pinata.
 
For me, I just hear fans who are saying they're looking forward to good things from Berry and we wait and wait and wait. I guess I haven't seen anything yet from him. But he was un-drafted so maybe he was just raw?

hes undrafted cause he sucks.
 
Uggghhhh why the hate for Berry. You do realize he was only responsible for one td last year which occured Week 1 when he had decent coverage. He's a solid outside corner on 3rd down in terms of coverage and a solid tackler. No ball skills and no ints but he is good at coverage. Not too many games were he gave up high yardage. Tampa game 77 and a td, Packer game 70 yards Thanksgiving and he gave up 60 yards in the playoff game and dropped that int but the entire D played bad once Houston went down, Delmas was gimpy and Spievey played with a concussion. Eric Wright, Alphonso Smith, Spievey and Brandon McDonald. They were atrocious not Houston and Berry.
 
I would like to see some stats on percentage of completions that came his way etc. And ripping the fans sure doesn't make me want to root for him.

at Chicago 17 coverage snaps 2 TA 2 rec 24 yards 0 PD
Carolina Didn't play
GB 40 coverage snaps 6 TA 4 rec 73 yards 0 PD
at NO 39 coverage snaps 8 TA 5 rec 88 yards 0 PD

Lots of coverage snaps where they went elsewhere. Either good coverage by Berry, good pass rush or bad coverage by others(Wright,Spievey etc)

What is TA?

Edit: I assume Throw Attempts or something like that. Which seems pretty high on the ones completed. When I look at the coverage snaps, it's probably because we had players in the secondary that stunk rather than going away from Berry.
 
Seriously WTF, I supported Berry months ago here and got ripped to shreds with no support. Where were all of you? LOL

I've always supported Berry. I watched him all four years in college and always spoke of his potential to make big plays, but tempered that with the fact the next time around he'd make a big mistake. He often goes from extremely exciting to watch to maddeningly frustrating all in the same game...multiple times. At Pitt, while his mistakes would be glaring, he seemed to always come back from it with a big play and the good far outweighed the bad. Just needs to translate it.
 
He's hard to get a starting CB after 2-3 rounds so as an un-drafted FA I expect zero from him.

It's a combination of throwing at others, good coverage by Berry and a good pash rush by Detroit. You can't just assume they threw at others and Berrys guy was wide open or would have made a catch. Maybe they threw at others because Berry had good coverage. Berry did well last year as the 3rd corner playing on the outside. TAs were close to receptions but the yardage was low other than Tampa, Green Bay(Jennings/Jones got him) and New Orleans(big catch by Meachem). I have a feeling alot of corners gave up a high percentage of completions per target against Green Bay and New Orleans.

Yeah that is why I said the guy needs a sports psych. He has the potential to get rattled not only on the field but off it as his little twitter incident showed. Didn't he pull a Lebron saying the haters can go back to their pathetic lives? HAHAHA

He had some off-field issues at Pitt too, which is why I think he went undrafted versus being a late round selection. Watching him get burnt in college was always fun because he'd have one of two reactions. Either the "point at somebody else and scream like it wasn't your fault" routine or the "oh shit I pulled a muscle" bit. Every single time...we used to try and guess which one was coming. Still though he usually more than made up for it...Going from Big East receivers to NFL receivers is a big jump though...
 
Yep that's they guy you want on your team, one that blames others.

A part of that is lack of maturity, which is something you hope changes, you hope to see growth. The other part...well I think every Sunday I see finger pointing. Not exclusive to Aaron Berry.
