Who is our Dime Back?

I know Williams is our nickle back(hopefully).But who comes in when we go to our dime package? Think Fox has a shot at it?

Ken Irvin

Dang I was hoping to get a different answer to this one.I don,t think Irvin could knock down a pass if they were throwing beach balls!I think maybe if he looks good in camp perhaps they should give Fox a shot at it..

Don't underestimate Ken Irvin's abilities. His absence last year was one of the reasons that the vikings defense was so atrotious. I trust him at the nickel or Dime position but I have questions about his ability to stay healthy.

I second that...not having Irvin last year made us have to use Brown and Shaw much to much for comfort!

That Irvin injury was bad.. He is a solid corner.. doesnt get many picks but will cover well for us.. He is a good menture (sp) also..

**Paulbedy59** · 05-23-2005, 11:11 PM

Yeah I agree,Brown Shaw,and may the name be stricken from all purple books Ross,sucked last year.But I don,t think Irvin at this stage in his career has the footspeed to stay with anyone,let alone after his injury last year.

its not like we put out 4 corners out there all that much anyway.. and if we do i think Irvin can cover a 4th reciever

ya, lol i cant believe anyone can make a comment that ken can't catch when he is a very great CB. He was doin really well when preseason was goin on then he got hurt with a couple games into the season and that devataded our defenses capability. I think that Kin may compete with Brian Williams, even though everyone else will think different. IM OUT!!!

I think Kelly Campbell can get all the dime bags we need.
He seems to like the stuff.

oh????What????
OH................DIME BACKS.............
well that is a little different.

Irvin is our guy, and a darn good one too!
