I think we are missing these guys a bunch.
I think the long run last week and the first one this week were at Rogers and the other was where Springs normaly is. I think we need our corners back bad.
I wonder if Noble got a better push or demanded more double teams (freeing up others).
I hope The corners get back soon.

Gibbs indicated it was a shin and he re-aggrevated the shin but nothing too serious.

Yes, we really need our starting corners back. I was getting really annoyed watching Carlos Rogers give a 12 yard cushion on every passing down, but apparently Greg Williams was calling the plays that way so the young corners didn't give up any big plays. The coverage would've been much tighter if the starters were in, and Shawn Springs is a much better tackler than Ade Jimoh, so he might have been able to prevent at least one of the big runs.
As far as Brandon Noble, he almost produces as much on IR as he does on the field. I think the defense is better off without him.

Yeah, I'm thinking that is the reason for any defensive weakness. I think once the secondary gets healthy, we'll be fine.

If springs can't play, has any heard Garnell Wilds name mentioned. I believe he is still on the practice squad.

wilds is with carolina now, and the guy we had on the practice squad got taken back by the falcons. I still can't believe we kept 6 dts and only 4 cbs...

And with all due respect, the Ade is a timebomb in coverage. I was petrified every time they threw to his side of the field.
