I look at -- he's Super Bowl match up presented by did you or Alex not delivery sixty yards out he is hurt and when I open and that's tucked tight ends Shelley and good luck this match up. Which team is going to have it like difficult. And stopping the tight end between Greg Davis and. You know I'm I'm -- go with the raving slowing down. Vernon. It's the only reason is because there has been doing business has been doing. Outstanding job -- -- he's picked it up the slack again I think because the passing game has been more involved in the Dolphins. -- well. But I just think that Vernon back there which is being -- you have to put the deepest of back on him you can't put a linebacker on him. And wait -- after you've been playing. You can't just focus born Vernon Davis like you have -- -- you can only put one guy who won. And I wouldn't like that match up with that kind of feeding inside to Vernon Davis well I think the Ravens have a hard time with the you feel it felt like an old guy right now asking this question at a at tight end if you play how -- changed. Well you know it is it's funny because. You look at quarterbacks like Peyton Manning and Tom Brady they were the first guys to do and all of a sudden Drew Brees started the woods in the ground and on the tell you why. When you look at the matchup that you have. With the type of position you're going against linebackers and safeties. And they are the words cover guys nothing in their bag but when you look at the cover guy they're all on the -- the corners so when you get a athletic tight in the can Ron just blowing you match in -- with a linebacker or safety. That's the matchup you wanna go through if if that it's a safer path as a closer pass and nine times out of ten. You gonna get zone who you gonna go against linebackers and safeties so I'm not shot at all because I knew at some point somebody with a little. He is the weak link in the deepest in the passing game missed the start attacking. That is -- a perfect and we've seen. Heavily as the old school throwback strictly a blocker than maybe Tony Gonzales and -- -- in the scientific Atlanta tomorrow Tony Gonzales he he's the -- for the blue and it would not saying -- out of the blue. It up a lot to say how much else lock you up to shake is that he's got picked it up with a lot -- Well you know it's it's it's a different day. Like when we played it was all about the -- him block and you may go -- the flag and made a few books but now he's got. Now do and I think because. Again it's only goes out of the blue when he was a little ahead of -- time because he's the athlete play basketball and college -- -- more athletic type of course the big guy that is. To stay in the block these guys mammograms in the clubhouse and guys like that they can get downfield and actually run the -- the Winslow they can get down field so. The -- coordinators are using these guys according and so I think by the fact that he's got the more athletic you can't go to ball downfield. How is shocking as it is not shocking but it's almost like now to have two great appetite and that this game -- they also both teams have great backup options but it comes. Yeah I tell you -- or if we feel back the tide in this game. There's going to be huge problem -- get injured because I'm tired I can't -- Vernon Davis -- that a coming out of these. These games that -- and when you go three wide receivers. You have got like -- wobbled and Golden's slot in the on the other side you have Crabtree are going well so. I think that's gonna be tough to see those back up in the game like this that. Know who got the break -- an active -- -- have games so you know if need be they do have some built -- that would go see it. I -- picked do you think you've been in -- get ready get hungry haven't talked pizza right out because it's not delivery. It's -- -- Make it -- -- but got out -- to start out at our sweepstakes to win. A pizza out or year.
