A reason for the secondary.

[WOW!!]

G-man brought in hire guns stealing a check instead of young players with something to prove.

Mitchell had something to prove. Melvin had something to prove. Lester had something to prove. We had young guys who were learning and making plays.

Now we are paying a bunch of old guys stealing a check.

Decoud is afraid to tackle and brought that weak soft Atlanta poo to this team.

Roman is old slow and never a leader he was suppose to be in this secondary.

Godfrey can't play nickel and is getting paid to fake effort.

Cason is so scared to play man to man that he never plays less then 10 yards from the WR. And he's suppose to be our numbers 1 cb???

At least when the secondary got burned last year they had the speed and youth to make up for the mistake. Or at least they tried to learn from the mistakes. The young guys were able to accept accountability for their mistakes. They also had the nuts to take chances to make plays.

These old guys act like they know everything so how coachable or accountable are they. They are so afraid to make mistakes that they react slow as hell.

The problem with this secondary is they lack speed and coverage skills. I feel that Melvin White and Josh Norman should be starting with Bene at Nickle. Cason has played awful because he is too scared he will get burned deep. That's the main reason he is playing 10 yards off the WR.

They need to put Godfrey back at Safety

We need to get Greg back

Those two moves would make a world of difference to this team.

Getting Lester back wouldn't hurt either

[UpstatePanther]

its sad that we all think Norman is an adequate alternative to what is starting....

[TheMaulClaw]

More concerned with Luke constantly putting our defense out of position.....and Godfrey.

[cbully]

RR is borderline idiotic to say white should be benched because he lost composure yet continue to start cason who clearly gives 7 yards to nearly every wr at the point of the snap. RR needs to stop hiring people from his past. also, if you smoke a divisional player nearly every meeting, why sign him? harper's body is clearly over the hill.

Two of the young guys youve mentioned aren't good. White has shown glimpses but overall has been below average. Lester is not even on the team. The point is it's not about who has something to prove or age but simply talent. In addition our front seven was lightyears better then our current one which greatly assisted our former secondary.

this is 100% truth.

 

i wonder who was out there though that we could get who was young, cheap and had something to prove like mitchell and lester did. Mitchell made our secondary tbh. 

 

i think the biggest issue is how soft our front 7 is now. i'm at a loss for words about that.

The front 7 is soft because the intimidation and emotional leader is at home making rap albums.

They have no legit CB's who can play man, so the 8 yard slant will kill this team all year long.

[Who Said What?]

The philosophy has changed too.  Last year we played aggressive down hill defense.  This year we are playing a weak ass soft zone.  You can't blitz and play ten yards off of the ball.  Its an easy completion every time.

[ricardo22compleano]

Rivera said no changes lmao

[LUUUUUKE]

What secondary?

[Snake]

This years secondary has less talent for sure in the DB area and it shows. Still it was not like we had any money to sign anyone else than we did so we were kinda stuck. Our draft really didn't produce any DB either that have contributed. Sucks but this is what happens when you have 54.5 million given to two players, one that has not seen 16 games since signing his contract.
