Is this the worst secondary in NFL history?

Pay attention to these guys if you re-watch the game. They were running away from tackles today. They were shying away from collisions, and taking the long route towards players with the ball. I've never seen anything like it in professional football. 

 

It's bad enough that you're giving receivers 5-10 yard cushions, but after they catch it, you back up and then loop towards them to try to make the tackle, and they've picked up seven more yards than they should've gotten by the time you get to them.

 

Worst secondary in football if not ever. 

 

The only thing that saves them "statistically," is the few interceptions they've gotten. And Cason even bobbled that one, despite it being thrown directly to them. They looked scared. It was pitiful. 

 

Godfrey is too expensive to cut, but a league minimum guy would probably be a better player than he is right now.

The CBs are alright. Harper and Decoud are absolutely pathetic. They both have a good number of picks, but even more big plays allowed. I'm pretty sure every one of our 50+ yard runs given up this year came when Harper was in "free roam" mode and got to choose his own gap to cover.

Harper is totally useless.  Did anybody notice his effort on that 97 yard kickoff return?  He looked like a kicker running away to avoid contact.  He had a shot to at least get a hand on this guy before he broke out and slow him down a little but he just froze, turned around a couple of times and the guy was gone.

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
