Mathis is a 3rd CB and this loss doesn't really benefit the Bills nor hurt the Falcons.

much, you mean..he was their nickelback...which means Rossum takes over at that position and a rookie takes over when they use 4 CBs...definitely hurts their depth and it means we can spread the field better

Actually, Rossum is quicker on his feet, IMO. Some in Atlanta weren't sold on Mathis anyway.

Re: Kevin Mathis out for the year

Damn...talk about blown out knee. I tore my PCL. Its the hardest ligament to tear. Most times only way to tear it is in an automobile accident (which was my case). He aint gonna be back to normal for at least a year...

I will give you that...Rossum has speed to burn..but who's got better coverage ability? It's not all about speed. Either way, it still means they lose some depth

That's what I mean though, lose a little here, gain a little there...no big deal. Atlanta's secondary is going to have difficulties with the Bills WRs. Especially if Parrish comes back.
