Quote:Did I watch the same games as everyone else. I felt that those 4 yr vets Prince and Gipson were both scrubs they both ran into each other costing us turnovers. Giving up plays for big yards or 1st downs. Cyprien can at least come up and close gaps and tackle. If you want to keep them fine but not worth anymore money that what they make now. Made no outstanding impact. I will give them maybe new scheme and will be better next year but no more money until prove they are worth more. Just like an average job and raise. 

 

 

A. Gipson and Prince ran into each other one time, while both trying to make a play on the ball.  Sure, it was a bad look, but it wasn't exactly game breaking.  The Int would have effectively been a fair caught punt.

 

B. Gipson hasn't really been tested all that much this year.  Teams haven't really gone down field on us all that often, and much less so to his side, given Cyp has shown to be a blatant liability in coverage.  Gipson hasn't been a world beater, but he's been far from "scrub".

 

C. Prince has been exactly what you expect a CB2 to be.  A solid coverage guy who's occasionally going to get beat.  He's not Ramsey, and he's not Patrick Peterson... nor does the team expect him to be.  He's the CB2, and he's a quality CB2 at that.  I wouldn't go tossing 10+mil a year at him, but he's going to get a decent paycheck this offseason, and I'd prefer that be with us.

 

D. Cyp can close gaps and tackle?  The guy has a history of taking terrible angles and misses more tackles than anyone else who's ever worn a Jaguars uniform.  He's lead NFL DBs in missed tackles once already, and I'm pretty sure he's leading it again, if not, he's close, this year.  If there's ONE starting player I hope does not get resigned, it's him.  He's just not good.
