So Jerruh Jones thinks Deion Sanders would have shut down Megatron. Thoughts?

[Panther]

I don't think anyone is shutting down megatron 10/10 times. If they played 2 games I bet that one game favors each of them

CJ was targeted 4 times that game secondly 2010 was nowhere near dudes prime. Furthermoe Stafford was hurt that game. His prime was last year and now. Now I'll give you Tillman but again Tillman can cover and tackle, Tillman is about as big as Michael Irvin, which reinforces my argument, the best way to slow down Megatron is with a physical corner with speed.

Lol - Um Charlies Tillman is 6'2 198.

Deion Sanders was 6'1 198.

So you are telling me now, you will give us Charles Tillman, tell me that the best way to shut down Megatron is a big corner with speed, then tell me a corner 1 ince shorter than Tillman, 10000x faster, 10000x more catching ability and 1000 more athletism cant shut him down?

Just found this nugget

"2012 Richard Sherman held CJ Jr to 3 catches for 46 yards and he was targeted 8 times."

 

[Bboystyle]

in a jump ball situation i'd take Megatron over Deion all the time. But in everything else, i go with Deion...

Let's see who Deion had to contend with, most of you are just focusing in CJ and some of you are saying he played the QB. I like to look at it like this, Deion never came to the huddle, he just followed the best receiver around and was asked to cover him paraphrase Jerry Glanville when he was coaching Deion in his ATL years. Who was he covering? Jerry Rice/Michael Irving/Shannon Sharpe/Andre Reed and the list go on. Here the deal M. Stafford passes to CJ, Deion had to contend with HOFers at the receiver spot as well as the QB spot Young/Montana, Bret Farve, Troy Aikman, Jim Kelly, these are the men he had to defend and he shut down one side of the field that rarely seen a pass, without going into a huddle.

out of those targets how many were bad/inaccurate throws where Calvin was open this happens a lot with CJ.

Are you sure about that? Or is this what you believe to be true with revisionist history, and nostalgic recollection.

i don't remember seeing Rice get 'shutdown' by Sanders, if im wrong then dap/pos rep will be provided no problem.

Deion had one game against Rice where he only had 3 receptions for like 30 yds.

Earlier in Deions career Rice had 5TDs and 171 yds when Sanders played for the Falcons.

Rice had 6 games where he had over 100 yards vs Deion to 4 games where he had 50 yds to or less, so I would say 55/45 to take into account the other games where Rice avg about 70 yards a game vs Deion

I do remember that one game I think it was back in 95 where Rice had 161 yards IN DALLAS, to take them down 38-20.

No he didn't shut him down, and he also didn't get baked,

Did you see those games or did you just go to pro football reference and look at his stats and attributed them to Deion was on him the whole time?

I'm not some kid lol. I'm a 49ers fan so I followed both teams closely, I double checked the stats to make sure I was right and not clouded by nostalgia, there was a back and forth def but I saw many of those games in real time.

In what City did you live in the 80's and 90's, I see you repping Brick City, NJ which means for the most part you were getting Jets and Giants game plus the game of the week. I live in Los Angeles and I would see the 49ers games every week along with the Raiders and Rams. I am just trying to figure out how you were able to see these games and just like you I'm not some kid. There no NFL Sunday Ticket you get what they gave you, which was regional.
