He’s right. He’s one of the biggest defensive playmakers in the league and a shutdown corner when he’s not making plays.

Damn right he is!
Best balls skills I have ever seen in a defensive back.
Plus, absolute knack for this big moment.
Remember he had an INT in his only playoff appearance as a rookie if I remember correctly.
If we can get on a big stage, guarantee X will cement his place in history on his way to the HOF.
Ramsey got toasted all playoffs last year, X is twice the CB he is.

It's nice all 3 players McCourty rated were his teammates.
I agree and yes I’m biased. But really, who’s been better over as long of a stretch? Anyone watch the Rams in the post season? Ramsey got abused in every game including the SB. I can’t imagine what they were saying about him on their boards. X isn’t capable of playing that poorly - my point is, for that position it’s so hard - and our guy leads the league in picks since 2017 and is a game changer every season. I do think he’s the best CB in team history - even across eras as the position is harder to play now than it was when Johnson and Foley played etc - and yes, better than Sam and Patrick (who were great). I think of it like this - X has a shot at the HOF. The other guys don’t even though they were fantastic.
You can beat X in zone coverage with smaller shiftier WRs, but in man coverage (outside of crossing routes), 95% of the time X is that dude.
I also like JC Jackson, but he isn't the stud X is.

I have to agree!
People complain about his tackling skills but he won us that 1st new England game last year.

IMO the only thing missing for X is big plays in the postseason on the biggest stage. But that ain’t his fault.
If you look back over the past 4-5 seasons it’s hard to take any DB over X. It just is.
And that’s not any sort of bias. Because I wouldn’t make that argument for any other Miami Dolphins player. I say the same thing about Dan Marino. There’s no other Dolphins player that played from 80’s on that I ever make an argument as being among the greatest.
For the past 4-5 years, though, X has the resume of one of the best today. He’s almost always around the ball and making big plays.

This is what X-Man brings.
We are damn lucky we got this guy.
