better than Sanders. Sanders was great at returns but a TOTAL pussy when it came to hitting. No one would ever mistake him for Jack tatum whereas TM7 is Jack Tatum with return skillz. Neon was great at intercepting and returns but would rather give a ball-carrier 10 yards to ride him out of bounds than hit him. TM7 don't have that problem.

Neon Deion could shut down half the field by himself.

is that all it takes to make a good corner? the willingness to hit someone?

Your right on the hitting part but he can't hold DS jock imo, I also saw him, n college as well and sanders was faster backpedaling, he was truly a freak. No and I mean nowhere close as a cover coner. Nothing from the other guy but your talking probally the best cover guy to ever play the game.

Not to mention Deion ran about 4.30 flat...TM7 is not that fast!

Irvin used to beat his arse when he would go down the field. I'd like to see Irvin do that to TM7

Sanders: Great returner, shut down corner (maybe best ever), not-so-clutch playmaker, terrible football mentality.

TM7: average cover corner, head hunter, ball hawk, CLUTCH playmaker.

I would relate TM7's punt returns to his knack for making a play at the right time. It really is amazing how he swings momentum. It really is amazing how often he makes "that play."

Back to the point: even think you can compare the 2. Completely different styles.

Youre comparing apples and oranges bro.

Deion never hit anybody but he was a much better corner than TM7 is. Thats why hes in the hall.

Sanders is a hall of famer. Saw him play as well, TM7 is not in the same class.

IDGAS if he's a 5th year senior and doubles his college accomplishments.

The delusional people are the one's sleep-talking here. I think Richardson is a great back, but I'm not stupid enough to say he could run over Warren Sapp or is better than Jim Brown.

That's Why your not an NFL recruiter, no comparison at cover none, make no mistake this is like comparing JL to Joe Montana, again this was a man that week after week shut down the best receivers in the NFL along with the best QBs n the NFL. As one asst coach told me The difference between DS and every other great corner was guys like Green, Bailey, Rod W., was that they demanded great respect but sanders was feared.

I"m referring to Neon in college. If he gets to pros. he'll hit like Ronnie Lott and return like Neon.

Did I talk about NFL? Or shut down corners? I just said I'd take TM7 over Deion any day. I stand by this. Making tackles, creating fumbles, good pass coverage, and laying the wood are why I like him better. He has bigger nuts than Deion. I'm sure players and coaches fear TM7. They are just different types of players. I'll take TM 7

Nuts over speed.
