You'll see that often in Tweets hyping up CBs as well. For example, someone might post something saying "Opposing QBs have a passer rating of 9.8 when targeting Sauce Gardner. They'd earn a 39.6 passer rating if they just threw every pass into the dirt."

Basically just means you're probably better off not targeting the guy he's covering because an incompletion is the best-case scenario.

Solid explanation, sir
