Smoot was dinged up

Thats starting to become a trend for Smoot. That poor guy can't stay healthy.

I'm all for it, where do I sign...Seriously though, I honestly can't think of any play(s) that he has made since he's been here. His career highlight was a pass that was deflected by his helment and intercepted by Rogers against Arizona. He is just a body on our defense

In the post game show, it was revealed that there was a missed assignment on the long pass. One of the safeties, most likely Horton, was supposed to blitz, that's why Torrence ended up in one on one coverage. If you recall, the St. Louis quarterback had a ton of time to pick out the receiver. Pressure in his face could have altered that play and most likely the game. Torrence has been average this season.

Horton and I think Moore failed to come close to doing their job on the play, from what I've heard.

Torrence is no better than a nickle cornerback, but he has improved significantly in the past year. That was an unfortunate play where he got crossed up. In almost all cases, the WR wins the underthrown ball battle.

given the circumstances (bulger with time, being 1 on 1 with no help) i thought our 4th cb did a good job of covering avery on that play, avery just made a spectacular adjustment and catch.

just like arch deluxes last year and reed this year against witten, good coverage gets beat by a great throw and catch. it happens . . . .

about turning your head to find the ball in the air while your running full speed next to a guy . . . that is a very important skill that separates the best cbs from the average ones, rogers is just starting to be able to do that this year and it is the single biggest improvement in his game and the reason why he deserves serious pro bowl consideration. years past he would turn his head last second not find the ball and end up making contact early and drawing a PI.

this thread deserves to be over at extremeskins where extreme knee jerk reactions are the norm.

go skins!!

I'm glad you can say it Smoot. I would'nt know where to begin.

As you all were mentioning why was there no safety help? Did we blitz both safeties?

Since Torrence was in, we should've had Landry helping him out. But I guess we might've been doubling holt.

Torrence sucks, but is Smoot really all that better in coverage? Finally who else do we put in instead? It's not like we can have 4 Carlos Rogers on one team.
