Now looking at next week with Springs in question and Harris just coming back, I'm sure we'd all feel better having Smoot or Champ waiting in the wings. But that's just not practical to have so many stud CBs on one roster.
I like Rogers for his cover abilities. I'm not sure he's the greatest in run support yet, I think he was responsible for losing outside containment against Bell on one of those TD runs. But for a nickel he's good, and will only get better. He's no Tom Carter.

champ or smoot or harris or springs probably wouldn't have given up that TD, they probably would have had at least one shot on one of the two huge runs as well. If either would have made ONE of those three plays, the game ends with a redskin victory. plummer sucks in the rain, but corners help with run support as well... so, on sunday, i did kinda miss them, cause our depth (ade) truly sucks.
