On several plays he was late showing up. One one benson run he looked like a he had lead stuck in his shoes. Benson blew by him and benson outweighs him by 20lbs. Whats wrong with Rhodes? Is he out of shape from all that partying or what?
He had like a 20 yard head start over Brian Leonard on that fumble recovery last week and Leonard still made the play. Yes Rhodes is slow.
like said before, Rhodes is slow. Also, he took TERRIBLE angles on the Benson run and another play. I was cursing him hard through my TV because of how bad it was. Basic safety play on how to run the angles, and he wasn't doing it
It's almost like he takes aggressive & reckless angles on the ball because he thinks he's faster and more agile than he really is. A true ego trip even when he's on the field. My take is his conditioning is not near what it should be. Regular partying can take a huge toll on an athlete and Rhodes seems to have too many off the field distractions literally slowing him down. Perhaps he should run around in those Karako suits with a parachute attached to it
I would literally pull my dick out and start jerking off at Radio City if that move was made on draft day.
He was slow last week. Does anyone remember when the Offensive lineman caught up to him, easily................lol
He was sleeping for the first few seconds of the play. 4 seconds into this clip Rhodes is still in the middle of the field. http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/2010010901/2009/POST18/jets@bengals/watch/contentid:09000d5d8159e27c edit: "Benson 47-yard TD run": http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-game-highlights/09000d5d8159d6b4/Benson-47-yard-TD-run
Actually, looking at that second view they gave us, he may not be so slow, as he was pretty far away when he started his pursuit of Benson. Still, he took a horrible angle, and he needs to react to plays like these quicker. Like you said, he was asleep.
He also bit terribly on the run on the Revis P.I. call. He appeared to be the deep safety on that play
