Message to Eagles fans from Oakland fan on Nam

Coming from someone who has watched every game Nnamdi's ever played in, gotta let you guys know the real deal.

The real deal is that Nnamdi is the real deal.  Hands down the best cornerback in the league.  Everybody wants to say that Revis is better, not even close to Nnamdi.  Don't listen to some of these guys like Kurt Warner on NFL  Total Access say that Nnamdi doesn't get in your face like Revis does....ummm, almost every play in Oakland Nnamdi was jamming the receivers at the line of scrimmage and not allowing anything....Then you have guys like Warren Sapp say Nnamdi ONLY plays on the right side, well this past  year he shadowed Fitzgerald all over the field, inlcuding the left side (which you'll see in the video where he didn't allow Fitzgerald a TD, Fitzgerald did score once but it wasn't on Nnamdi).  Another thing people say, Nnamdi can't tackle...OK guys, he played safety at Cal and I've seen some nasty hits hes brought down on players (which you'll see in the videos as well).  All in all you guys will be amazed at how much of a shut down corner Nnamdi is, I mean look at this chart from last year on burn stats.  The thing that pops out is that Nnamdi didn't allow a single TD all year, or that he was only targeted 29 times and only allowed 13 receptions (Against Arizona last year Nam covered Fitzgerald  and only allowed 1 catch for 18 yards on 6 attempts, the most attempts against him in three years!)...compared to Revis being thrown at 67 times and allowing 28 receptions.  People say Nnamdi isn't a playmaker because he doesn't get INT's, I wonder why he doesnt get picks, no one throws his way (last time he was really thrown at was in 2006 when he had 8 interceptions).You guys will see, and not only is he a great player on the field, but an even better person off it.  Great pickup and I wish you guys the best, I'll always be a Nnamdi fan and will have catch some games this year.
