He's playing like crap, I knew he wouldn't be ready.

it has more to do with the fact hes an average DB who finally had a very good season last year and played over his head

hes a good DB but hes not a top 5 DB which is what kind of money he was looking for this offseason

Completely agree he's not that great, as I've been saying all along.

Definetly, I was also saying that too. Unless he proves he's elite, he won;t be paid like an elite player.

I'm not surprised he hasn't been doing all that much in these first few games. Even if he kept in perfect shape during his holdout, he wasn't practicing with the team. It takes some time to get in-sync with the rest of the team. Also, Hobbs and Gay have been doing great. I can't actually find a website that tells you how much time each players been in the game, but I'm guessing that Samuel has had less time on the field, as a way to ease him into it, since he didn't have pre-season to do that... or maybe its some sort of punishment handed down to him by Belichick, I don't know.

Just because he isn't getting interceptions, doesn't mean hes not doing his job. I haven't heard his name mentioned in any blown plays... that must mean that when hes been out there, hes been good on coverage.
