It's Revis. Last meeting vs Calvin Johnson he held him to 13 yards. Calvin is better than Fitz but not by much. Fitz still puts up numbers with Skelton and other bums as qb.

You guys making like Calvin always had Stafford though. This guy was doing it with Kitna, Hill, Orlovsky, Culpepper.

"For most teams, it's schematic suicide, leaving a cornerback to fend for himself. Ryan proclaimed that Revis plays straight man coverage with no deep safety help 'maybe more than any player in the history of the league.'
According to Pro Football Focus, opposing quarterbacks completed a league-low 41.2% of their passes thrown at Revis in 2011. Signal callers also had a league-worst 45.6 passer rating when throwing in Revis' direction.
Revis gave up only six completions in the fourth quarter.
Revis gave up only ONE touchdown all last season, a 5 yard slant to Steve Johnson (Mike Pettine revelaed that the Jets play more "Cover Zero" with Revis against the Bills than other opponents, often times leaving the all-world cornerback to defend Johnson on his half of the field.

Re: Best NFL player (No QB's)
hard to pick a rb or wr. I feel a defensive end is the second or third most important position behind a quarterback and left tackle.
Either Ware or Pierre Paul.
Went with Ware
