E) last year when the secondary was decimated by injuries it became time for him to step up and he flat out couldnt. yes he was asked to cover more than he ever had before but he was a veteran and perennial pro bowler, would have been nice to display any coverage skills he had learned during his career (zippy)
F) the guy is one of the WORST tacklers. yes he can hit hard, yes he USED to be able to get to the qb, and yes he can blow up run plays. but in open space the guy cannot wrap up and tackle to save his life
