He has always been the weak link in the secondary. The question is if he truly doesn't belong in the starting lineup, and if there's no one else who can take his place, how much of a defeciency does he present for the defense as a whole?
Maybe it was just a bad game. But let's just say that I've always had my doubts about that guy.

I think Doughty is a good player but just average. He is not an elite Safety, and this is what happens when the rest of the defense faulters, you can't depend on him to save the game.
