I don’t agree.
Last year, of course since Tariq was a rookie, he got tested early and often.
Now, since he’s in this second year and they have film on him, offenses know what he is capable of, so, they also know how to attack him offensively, however, he has not played badly.
When you are the microscope and you are not putting up 3-5 interceptions right now, you are considered not as good, one or playing well?? That makes no sense to me.
I don’t see Tariq has not playing well, he just isn’t challenged as much. Woolen is largely playing against his prior season numbers at this time. The media also wants to see two corners instead of one corner so if one is considered to be playing well, it makes the other seem like they aren’t playing well. I think that’s wrong.
Remember when Sherman was pro bowl and all pro, did that make it seem the guy on the other side wasn’t a good player??
I hate that thought, if you have one “good” corner, it makes the other corner not as “good.”
Witherspoon has gotten a lot of positive attention this season and rightfully so but it doesn’t mean Woolen is a bad player by any means.
I think they are making stories out of nothing and hoping it’ll catch on. If they want to make a story they should make one about why Seattle can’t out together a good offensive line instead…
