What big changes did we make at corner in the playoffs? The only real change at corner was when Revis came in, which is completely different. Also, I have no clue what moving Jones around has to do with what I was saying.
Specifically, I can’t think of one time that we gave a young guy, and in particular a rookie, reps in the playoffs that they didn’t get in the regular season.
Take Steven Nelson for example. Going into year two, I remember when people thought they really didn’t like Nelson because he didn’t play at all down the stretch his rookie year. Everybody thought there was no way they’d be counting on him the following year, yet he was handed the starting job at NB and had a solid year.
It’s pretty obvious they prefer to redshirt certain guys, which was why I don’t see the reason for concern that they chose not to play him in the playoffs. Sure, there might be other reasons, but that’s not one.
