Can't remember exact quote but it was along the line of...the biggest miracle of the end of the Super Bowl wasn't the interception it was that Browner didn't have a holding or pass interference to screw it up. Thought that was a funny quote that everyone would enjoy. Also talked about how the Pats couldn't wait to get rid of him.

Tulane and Broad is the only worse corner in NOLA.

He was a decent chest piece against bigger WRs, and had a Top 2 free safety covering his arse deep so it worked in NE.

Being the cover corner #2 with not a lot of help just exposed him

How he's still on the roster is unbelievable let alone getting significant playing time. I'd rather trot 10 players out there

I will say it's a little disingenuous of Simmons to say we were itching to get rid of him. There was a lot of head scratching after we let Arrington, Revis, and Browner all go, including Simmons.

If we had everyone healthy he would be a great piece on this defense. Did no one notice how Allen put Browner almost exclusively on Olsen when Breaux was healthy? We shut Carolina down big time to start the game. Breaux goes out and he has to be the main guy and that's not his strength.

Is he great? No. But everyone will blindly bash the dude without looking at the whole picture.

So he's a corner who you have to hide on TEs, though he's not really good at covering those. Congrats.

Is Funchess their main guy because he gave up a TD to him too? This ain't Rice and Moss torching him every single week.

That's what happens when you're playing some of the worst football in the league.

Browner might be a great piece in senior citizen flag football league with liberal officiating. He is 114 out of 114 for a reason. I want to say that he's graded out negatively all 12 weeks while the secondary was in varying degrees of health and against a variety of wr's and te's. He also got smoked by Olsen in week 4. Hell, this week he was getting shredded and turned around on slants by Funchess who is 6ft 5 240 pounds and not known for his speed, route running or lateral agility.

Funny, ESPN said the same thing about Simmons.

Are you fricking high? Its not blindly bashing a dude when he leads the NFL in penalties by a long shot and is rated as by far, the worst CB in the NFL. And he hasnt been the "Main Guy" all season and has looked like dogshit every game.

Sadly, Loomis and Payton signed this guy. Another cluster F by them.
