Kurt Coleman has been awful this year.

The secondary hasent been great by any means, but it hasent been horrible either.  It’s more of a middle ground.  We had no pressure on McCown for practically 3 quarters yesterday.  None!  He was standing, moving outside the pocket, doing whatever he wanted.  Every  secondary is going to look like crap with that much time.  Once we started getting pressure the game was over.  

The other thing that makes the secondary look bad is the amount of blitzing we do under Wilks.  This sometimes leaves a man running free and if the QB finds him it’s gonna look bad...But it’s by design as those plays are never meant to get off.  Sometimes they do.  Give credit to Robby Anderson yesterday he made some great catches with Bradberry and Coleman all over him.

He never really was.    Having Norman out there shutting down a side of the field allowed Coleman to by a ballhawk, and with all those INTs he racked up he looked amazing.    He wasn't that great last year either.     He's just serviceable at this point.

The coaching staff can like it or not but they'll have to replace Adams next season. Dude can't suit up forever. I'll bet it'll be Jarius Byrd they put in there. Man screw some young buck in the draft who could be a day one contributor. Screw that, screw a rookie who might be decent at first and turn into a superstar 2-3 years down the road. Let's throw Byrd or some other dinosaur in there. No disrespect to Adams I think he's been better than decent. Serviceable to say the least when surrounded by hotgarbage back there.

Its almost like he was injured and the new DC asks him to cover more ground. 

When the secondary was humming in 2015 we had veteran corners. JNo was elite and Coleman played more physical at LOS. 

Lets not forget TD is getting old and slower. That TD down the sideline wasn't Kurts fault imo. He was in an impossible position to defend that broken play.

Coleman and Bradberry don't deserve the blind eye they get 

I really didn't see how Bradberry had a bad game yesterday. It wasn't spectacular by any means, but he wasn't trash.

That deep TD between the two defenders was Adam's fault, he bit on the double move. Bradberry stayed home and forced him inside like he was supposed to and kept in stride with a guy who is faster than him. Adams was supposed to provide over the top help but was too shallow and got burnt.

    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
    • Well, we got our answer on Army today.
    • Not a chance the SEC could compete with the NFL.  In the large cities that are not in the Southeast, (LA, NYC, Chicago, SF) College football is an afterthought.
