The last time I remember us playing man to man was when Ricky Manning Jr. had multiple picks against Philly in the playoffs 1000 years ago. (at least it seems like 1000 years ago).

yeah... back when Trgo was young, dumb, and full o cum! Caused him to take chances!!

Yes, although it looks more like they are playing 10 yards deep. It seems either Turgs doesn't trust the CB's enough to let them hit up on the line or he is so freakin scared of getting beat deep that he is willing to give up 7+ yards on every single pass play. It sickens me how easily teams can pass against us, especially those short routes where they get a effin first down every other play.

The theory is this. Give up short passes while not getting burnt deep. Force the offense to make 10 plays instead of 1. Zones tighten up in the red zone cause the field can no lnoger be stretched. Play tighter in the red zone and try and hold teams to field goals attempts.

Srsly!!! You saw that too huh????

In reality there are no "match ups" in a zone. The DB's responsibilty is an area. If someone runs into your area then he is yours.
