Help US get a grip on the reality of the NFL. How many years did you play in the NFL? Go ahead, I'll wait!

What difference does it make if I played in the NFL or not? I'm not the issue here, Reed is, and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to work out that the NFL is played at such a high intensity and speed. Reed has however played in the NFL, and is a future HOFer, possibly the best safety to ever play this game. Reed is no where near as bad as your suggesting, he's still a top 5 safety in the league towards the end of his career, he is not as good as he used to be, not even close, but he's still a damn good player.

Reed will NOT tackle anymore. Put down your madden game and stop looking at who has the highest ratings. Reed gets his love from what he DID not what he does now. Reed is in the November/December of his career. Let go! Father time catches us all!

I dont play Madden. So your point is off base and wrong. Looks like Father time caught your mind a wee bit early. Since when Does Pollard plat FREE SAFTEY. You can't even talk shit right. Pollard plays SS.
Ok lets see Ryan Clark Stats so far this year..

Ed Reed.

Ok A. Rolle.
http://www.nfl.com/player/antrelrolle/2506347/profile
Now just to inform you the following 3 players are Strong Safteys. NOT FREE SAFTEYS
Um Tyvon Branch, Benard Pollard, and Adrian Wilson are Strong Safteys
From the stats above Ed Reed is still out playing Eric and Ryan Clark
You really should quit while you are behind.

I don't like Reed and his tackling sucks and he's not worth the coin he is collecting. If you could take your lips off his bag you could see that Reed has been horrible this year.

Re: I've had enough of Ed Reed's BS
One thing that seems to be missing from the entire discussion is - IF Reed's performance is hurting the Ravens D, AND there are better alternatives (on the active roster, on the PS, possible FA's floating out somewhere, trade opportunities {which I believe is not an option at this point}, etc.), AND the DC and coaching staff still have control of the team, why in the wide world of sports wouldn't they take Reed out of the line-up and replace him with a better alternative? I honestly hope that the coaches are running the asylum, not the inmates.
Re: I've had enough of Ed Reed's BS
Reed seems to be out of position more frequently this season. It seems like several times a game some WR is totally uncovered because Reed decided to gamble. We don't have the cornerback talent on he field right now to support that kind of play. We might be better off with a steadier safety who plays his assignments than one who disappears for many plays while trying to do something big like get an interception.
