Ward isn't an impact player. Maybe that's scheme, maybe that's coaching.

Big hits =/= impact at his position. He doesn't pass the eye test, he doesn't match up well on TE's and he can't cover WR's. So basically he becomes a linebacker because he isn't getting take aways.




yep. thats what i think. a extra LB.

I was pleasantly surprised to watch how he tackled.






When the debate was on if Haden should be the pick, this was also my comment. As good as Joe is at everything else, the kid can tackle.

He isn't looking for highlights, he is looking to bring the player down. He is a model tackler.


You want to teach kids how to tackle? Show them Joe Haden clips. The guy is a master. He is the best small man tackler in the league. For that matter, any size. He is perfect form every time.

Haden does have excellent technique. Text-book and beyond reliable. His intensity rains down onto the other players.

Haden is a top 5 DB?!? Seriously???

People need to watch some other games.

And I don't think he has elite talent either.

He wouldn't start for Seattle. Both corners are far better.

Tillman is way more of a difference maker....

I could go on and on and on but no desire.

He's probably in the mix for top-15ish.




Seattle would give either CB for Haden because he is better than both ... JMHO

I wish he would teach TJ his technique. Ward is a shoulder tackler....I hate that.

I read this article at the start of the thread and all the way through I just get this one feeling. Horton just doesn't get it. Haden already is an elite player and anything Horton tries to do to affect his game is just going to detract from it.

How can Horton hold these views? Is he just figuring this out?

Oh my gosh, Dude, Horton, stop trying to change things and just go out and coach. Stop trying to " make " anyone anything and be happy for the benfit you get from having this kind of talent on your team.

So if Hayden makes a play next year we're supposed to thank Horton? Gimme a Break! The arrogance of that.
You didn't do anything for Hayden except INHERIT his talent on your defense.

You want to make somebody? Go out and make Tashon , freaking , Gipson! or someone else comparable to that.

If you want to take CREDIT for something, DO SOMETHING! Don't take credit for what is ALREADY THERE!
And good luck! Because I want to see you win.
In spite of the Feelings! I have that you guys are even running this team, and not the guys you replaced. good grief.


Can Deshaun Watson play better for the Browns, than Baker Mayfield would have? ... Now the Games count.

I like Haden alot, but he does not shut down his side of the field. If your going to consider somebody elite, they have to win their matchup so well its part of the gameplan.
Haden is not there yet.

I like Haden and I think he is a good player, but he is not one of the top corners in the league yet. Heck, just look at what Horton is saying. He is saying that he wants Haden to be elite. Saying he has the ability to be elite. Y'all know what potential means, right? It means you aren't there yet.

I am not knocking the guy, but I agree w/a couple of other posters who say is overrated on the boards. I think guys run away from him on long crossing routes at times. He gives up too many completions.

I think Joe is a good player and can be a great player. I hope he keeps his head on straight and reaches his potential.

He can catch the ball. Maybe you question should be re-worded to "too bad he wouldn't risk it and go for interception first, knock/deflection second". He has an abundance of pass deflections, some of them he "should" have took the risk of intercepted it.
