So we have:
- Haden played like the best corner in the game until last weeks injury
- Skrine who had a near pro bowl campaign and has consistently gotten better, barring some of the ticky penalty habits
- Gilbert who has been showing flashes, but for some reason (lesser practice quality?) isn't getting much time on the field. I believe he'll be good still.
- Williams UDFA who has come in and played like a stud
- Desir 4th rounder who got his first legit NFL time yesterday and played like a stud
In addition to:
- Gipson who was destined for Hawaii
- Whitner who has been solid, albeit I still think Ward's better. Possibly pro bowl level.
- Leonard the vet who replaced Gipson and didn't miss a beat.
It's been a long time we've been clamoring about how badly we need a secondary. Well don't look now but we have a young, talented backfield that could potentially be the best in the NFL very soon...
We have plenty of ammo to beef up the LOS on both sides of the ball. I don't know why people are so down on this team.
Yep. Even with the injuries defense has usually turned in solid performances except against the run which is pretty hard on everything. Line of scrimmage is a definite need.
As for that ridiculous gave himself up rule... Maybe he was just protesting Ferguson? Don't shoot Ref!
