I always play out of phase, he always plays in phase.” Ramsey said in the interview.

One of the most important factors that he cited is the way, they approach playing in the position. Ramsey is a lockdown cornerback, who takes some chances in coverage, but most of the time, he tries to nick the ball away from his assignment.

So, it is fairly illogical to compare two opposite poles is what Ramsey thinks when asked about his thoughts on the matter.
