Landry was going to be our sure starter for SS to pair him with the Meast for the next 10 years. Although Landry can run a 4.3 and thus cover sideline to sideline, his college position was SS.
I agree that I'd like to see Moore get a bit more playing time, and see Landry at SS, but then the dilemma is how to use Horton/Doughty

As long as they can both get on the field...I don't care...they're both great players.

Horton hit him as he looked back and put up his arm so the call was correct, close but correct. Here is a link to the play but you need to advance it to the 3 min mark if you don't want to watch the highlights of the game.

I still think that Horton is better than Doughty...I really don't think that Horton is the weak link in our defense, what should be changed is Daniels for either Orakpo or Jarmon

Lol, where's DoughtyDoubter?
I like Horton but anyone who watched the Lions game last weekend had to have seen Doughty flying all over the field. Anyway starting only means so much in this situation. Both of them are going to get reps this Sunday. In fact I'd be willing to bet that they'll probably we something along the lines of a 60-40 split.

See I keep hearing this but the fact of the matter is that Landry was probably at his best as a pro during the second half of 2007 when he took over at FS. I still can't figure out though if Landry's drop off is due mainly to Blache's scheme or Landry's fundamentals. On top of that I would also add that maybe Jim Zorn is to blame due to the fact that the offense hasn't had a big lead in quite some time which would result in teams feeling more pressure to go deep.

That's the same as it's been. The only thing is now Doughty will be getting 60 instead of 40. Doughty has been looking like a beast. I kind of hate to take him off of ST because he is one of the main contributors.
Fuck Blache...dude this is rediculous worst than when Marty was our coach and decided to bench hall of famer Darrell Green..Blache's a pussy not a fan of blitzing? you obviously dont wanna work in the NFL Fire his ass DAN!

I'm still waiting to see what Kareem Moore can do. Lets get this guy on the field, Blache.

Generally, this is a good problem to have...my only issue is I don't want Horton to start playing it safe, I assess Horton as medium risk, but high reward. Doughty is medium risk, medium reward.

I totally agree. He rarely is a position to make a play in this scheme. I remember when we played Seattle in the playoffs and he had 2 INTS adn was playing lights out. I was like whoa. He hasn't been the same yet. I think Blache is mainly to blame. Seems like ever since he got trucked by Jacobs he hasn't been the same either.
