2013: 77 tackles, 11passDef, 4ints
There you go. Compare Goldson's first two years with the Niners to Reid's. Or, compare Goldson's last two years on the Bucs to Reid's last two years. Any way you look at it, Reid has more interceptions and more passes defensed. Reid is simply better in coverage and it appears that he also plays smarter.
And you're just gonna ignore the 174 tackles by Dashon compared to Reid's 118 from their first 2 seasons..... and both Dashon and Reid had 4ints in their first season as a starter....
