These dudes are so damn good, especially with a defense that doesn't pressure the QB great. Forbes is probably the most talented corner we've ever had. He just makes plays in a dominant fashion for a corner. I'm very biased but I think he's better than Stingley. Martin doesn't get targeted as much but he's probably top 5 all time for us.
Open field tackling was superb last night. I believe Forbes had 8-9 solos
Forbes is good but not the best we've had just yet.
That's why I suggested most talented with his career so young. His coverage skills are great, but I've never seen a corner here tackle that well and consistently.Quote:

Sounds like a law firm
"Forbes and Emerson -- one call, that's all"
Lol, yepQuote:
