Obligatory post-game "Walt Harris scares me" thread
:frusty:
He can't tackle - he empty handed Cadillac in the backfield and let him get an extra 5 yards. He can't really cover - Galloway burned him for Simms' longest pass of the game. Furthermore, why does GW think this guy can play? I know we are depleted, but what the hell is he doing lining Harris up on Galloway in man coverage? |

Re: Obligatory post-game "Walt Harris scares me" thread
Add Antonio Brown to the "He scares me" list. Great rags to glory story for Antonio, but the guy was cut for a reason. We ought to take him out of punts and leave him solely as a kickoff returner.
Harris' inadequacies are well documented - you can't expect him to flourish in any role besides nickel corner. However, the guy is good on special teams and seems to have a knack for falling on the ball, recovering fumbles or blocking kicks. Sean Taylor's play-making abilities were able to make up for the loss of Springs. However, that bonehead really hurt the team by being thrown out of the game. Inexcusable. Again, just mighty relieved to come away with the WIN! |

Harris is a fine nickel corner but will probably find himself fighting for a job during camp next year. The bottom line is that with Taylor and Springs out our secondary isn't great. That should be expected (don't you think?) If we are going to get into the "what if" discussions (what if Simms didn't overthorw so and so...) then we should mention that if we needed to be in a shootout, Moss would have made some Tampa corners look pretty bad too... even with double coverage.

Re: Obligatory post-game "Walt Harris scares me" thread
These guys had some bad plays, but you know what? They played good enough for us to win today.

Good defense of Frost on the TD saving tackle Mattyk72. I agree. Tough guy for a punter.

Re: Obligatory post-game "Walt Harris scares me" thread
To be fair Harris had fallen down when he blew the tackle on Cadillac. It is hard enough for CBs to tackle to begin with. Once they fall down we can't expect them to contribute much.

Re: Obligatory post-game "Walt Harris scares me" thread
Hey, Galloway didn't burn us -- and that was without Shawn Springs.
We're so thin in the secondary, I'm not bad-mouthing Walt Harris at all this week. Didn't Springs say he should be ready for Seattle? |

Springs might be back and hopefully ST can keep his spit in his mouth.

Re: Obligatory post-game "Walt Harris scares me" thread
frost is the fastest punter ever :P
I think we should seriously consider lining A brown up at CB, since he's ungodly fast and his hands are that bad.... |

Re: Obligatory post-game "Walt Harris scares me" thread
I thought Walt Harris played pretty well, and there was nothing he could do against the long joey galloway pass... it was man to man and he has to respect the deep ball and he went inside.

Re: Obligatory post-game "Walt Harris scares me" thread
I was supporting AB last week, but now I can not believe he fumbled yet again, use AB as reciever and use trash and betts for returns, simple as that. Frost made an awesome tackle, and with the exception of the 14 yard kick, he punted pretty well. Of course if we had lost, then everyone would be yelling at Frost.
