DB's don't back pedal when they play a Man 2 press. It's why they call it bump and run, not bump and back pedal.

I am pretty sure that there wasn't a lot of press man in pee wee ball...

I could care less about what coverage it is, and yes I know the article was pertaining to a particular defense scheme. What I am saying is that Dre is saying he was never coached to backpedal in this certain coverage. SO WHAT? Like Dre had never backpedaled before? So is he being asked to do something that he has never done before? I would certainly think not. So whats the problem then?


Somebody get me a damned depth chart!

It appears to me from the article that the Bengals regard him as "lacking in some techniques".  At least that's the way I took it.

Thats basically what I saw in the article. Either way, the boy got him a big money contract so I really doubt he cares what I think.

Looks like Dre Kirk wasn't lying when he said that he didn't know how to backpedal....broke his leg while learning how to backpedal.

So, explain to me how you get labeled as ”one of the nation's Elite Cover Corners,” but not know how to backpedal at all?

You meet a man on the Oregon Trail. He tells you his name is Terry. You laugh and tell him: "That's a girl's name!" Terry shoots you. You have died of dissin' Terry.

I'm pretty sure you get labeled as one of the nation's elite cover corners by being a pretty damn good cover corner. Which he was. Not the best in the entire country or anything like that, but pretty good. Cam Newton had to learn how to take snaps from under center when he got to the NFL. I didn't see anybody scoffing at that. I just don't see where it is so shocking that somebody who played bump and run 99% of the time can't backpedal worth a shit.

First off, he's overrated (not because he's a former uat player). Secondly, being a CB you're taught how to backpedal in Peewee Football. As a baby you learn to talk, walk and then backpedal in that order. Michael Jackson knew how to backpedal and he was far from considered a ”Cover Corner”. $5 says that Coach midget lied to Coach Lewis about Dre's  abilities...just like he led to him about Andre Smiff's.

In college ball, I don't think he was overrated. In the NFL, he hasn't even made it to training camp yet. For that matter, I don't even think anybody expected him to start this season. I don't think anybody expected him to go in there completely NFL ready either. He was the 4th DB taken in the draft. So it's not like anybody thought that he was so insanely talented that they just HAD to have him in the top 10 or anything.

And if Kirkpatrick was so horrible that the only reason that the Bengals took him was because Saban lied to them, then they are fucking retarded and need to fire whoever scouts talent. But you were talking out of your ass anyway, so I'm not even sure why I addressed that part of your post. Or any of it for that matter.

Oh contraire, your goatness.  Cam Newton was picked apart by virtually all the "Experts" saying he would be a bust because he'd never really been under center.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

So, the Bengals used their 1st Round pick on a player that they'll have to coach up, in a position that's "deep".  Good job Bengals, way to waste your first round pick... :facepalm:

This is what was the most troubling to me, not that I give a shit about Cincinnati, but I too was like :wtf:

I meant to say "anybody here", but I understand your point regardless.
