Very proud of the team today even in a loss

I mean Prioleau should have done a better job at having Springs' back on that, but Shawn just let him blow by him. We need to draft more CBs I think next year. Nice job by Rocky with that almost INT also. I thought he had it. With the exception of the Giants I t hink we will win the rest of the games. Dallas is going to sit guys out for the 2nd round against us if they beat GB and run the table. They will have secured homefield advantage even if they lose to us.

In a 2 deep zone, the CBs guard the sidelines for short to intermediate routes. Springs is supposed to release the WR after 15 yards or so. Each Safety is responsible for one half of the field beyond 15 yards or so, and the MLB drops to guard the deep middle. My only knock on Springs on that play is that he stopped running back the help Prioleau when nobody else was in his short zone for him to defend.

You make a great point about the 2nd Dallas game - if they have home field wrapped up, I can't imagine that they'll bring the same intensity that the Skins will if we're playing for a wild card.
