Who Dats weigh-in - worse safety debate
Posted on 9/10/12 at 2:06 pm
Posted on 9/10/12 at 2:06 pm
As of this afternoon, on this tenth day of September in the year of our Lord 2012, which safety is/was a bigger liability in coverage - Roman Harper or Tebucky Jones?
And yes, this is a serious inquiry.

Tebucky was the worst of all time. Roman has done some good things and some bad things.

Jones.
Harper is boom or bust in coverage. Jones was just bust.

Gotta go with Tesucky Jones. I used to love when he would try to lower the boom on guys and they shrugged his hit off like it was nothing.
Harper is the probably one of the worst coverage safeties in the league today. I think I could beat him one on one.

Jenkins is about as terrible in coverage as Harper must be nice for him to not get nearly as much grief over it.

Not sure if serious.

1 interception since 2007. 4 ints in seven years.

Totally serious. Next home game go ask ten fans who got burned by Vernon Davis on that long pass in San Fran and I guarantee 90% will blame it on Harper. Jenkins has been crap since he took the ball from Roy Williams.

He has the, "duck my head and whiff on trying to blow up a guy, while an easy interception sails by," strategy.

That said Jenkins has the potential to be better. Roman will never ever be good in coverage, and that's not even factoring in him slowing down once he gets into his 30's.

Kasevaharn & josh bullocks were way worse than Harper

Can someone please get an honest answer from the coaching staff? They must see the same thing we are seeing, Roman Harper cannot play safety, please make a change

I'm with you. Was there that little on the market that we settled for re-upping on Harper's contract? Amazing...
Posted on 9/10/12 at 2:38 pm to Lester Earl
KK and Bullocks' problem was that they were dumb as hell. How many times did we see them get torched, then look back at each other with no clue about who blew the coverage this time?
Harper can't physically run with anybody.
Just depends on what pisses you off the most... guys getting torched because they're morons or guys getting torched because they have grandpa's athleticism.
Im over Harper. KK and Bullocks didnt get 7 years to suck.

Jones. I might even rate Bullocks worse than Jones.

Harper blitz and keep Jenkins in coverage.
Posted on 9/10/12 at 2:42 pm to Jwodie
Jenkins so far is definitely a bust. He showed good moments his second year here but outside that, can't say much positive about him.
We can't seem to draft anyone great on defense unless it's in the later rounds.

Rob Kelly used to scare the hell out of me in the late 90's.
Its funny though, I remember him picking off Dan Marino and taking it back for a score in '97 or '98 can't remember which one.
I guess neither Jones or Harper really benefited from having a defensive line who would provide consistent pressure that would allow them to make plays.
but I'd agree with LE, Kaesviharn was the worst I've seen.
