Watching Calvin Johnson shred his defense on Sunday, Cowboys owner and General Manager Jerry Jones would have loved to have had one of his old cornerbacks back: Jones said on Tuesday that he believes Deion Sanders, the Hall of Famer who played cornerback in Dallas from 1995 to 1999, could have done the job of covering Megatron.

Asked on KRLD-FM if Sanders could have shut down Megatron, Jones answered, “Yes, I do.”

Jones elaborated that Sanders was as good a shutdown corner as he’s ever seen, and so he’d like Sanders’s chances against any receiver.

It would have been more interesting than watching Brandon Carr fail miserably.

I've only seen one person shut down Calvin, and he did it 3 straight years.

RIP Paul Oliver.

I mean, it's hard to argue that if anyone could do it, it'd be Deion.

Doesn't make Jerrah and his organization any less pathetic, though.

Doesn't matter whether Deion could have or not, Jerry. None of the guys on YOUR roster could.

I really would've liked to see how bad he would've been w/o CJ.

While this is true, I wouldn't put too much stock in one game.

Who is this?

Is this the HS football player who went to prison for statutory rape?
