Rather than type this out again, let me just copy and paste:

Can't throw on Bradberry, he's good in coverage. Shouldn't throw at Jackson, he's a star in the making. Throwing at Reid or Adams is just feeding the interception machine. All three linebackers can play in coverage on tight ends and are capable of popping an interception at a moment's notice.

Fast slot receiver working the slant pattern is the hardest play to cover one on one. Fitzgerald*** (Fitzpatrick -- oops) is a Harvard-educated QB with a good arm and tons of experience. Adam Humphries is an excellent slot receiver with an average of 10.6 ypc. Munnerlyn is going to be hit hard and often in the passing game, particularly when the Bucs are playing behind. Our nickle was going to get blasted today, whoever it was. Munnerlyn stayed in there and made tackles (4 tackles, 4 assists). I'm not sure a rookie DB doesn't get completely washed out as they keep picking on him.

Munnerlyn wasn't bad, but Humphries was excellent and Fitzgerald has made him one of his favorite targets. Makes for a tough day staring down the barrel.

I would like to see what Corn has. Remember, DJ and Curtis would not have had this opportunity with a healthy Torrey Smith. 

We need both. RR needs to embrace the dime package. Especially against NO. They will find the LB/S and abuse him with Kamara. Put a quicker player on him and make Brees throw it away. 

  This could logically be a good game to try. The Steelers usually don’t involve their 3/4wrs much. If either one can’t cover Ryan Switzer, we got problems. 

  I’m more interested in Gaulden? Why can’t he contribute at nickel. Or anywhere. He’s another option to neutralize Kamara.

Yup, one major thing that kills us fans is when we see the younger player making a tip to himself interception at full speed you would have to think whew he's got some juice let's get him a little playing time to see if his game translates. And then each week from Julio to AJ to the Eagles or the dam Bucs teams have third down success and chain moving plays directly on our slot cb not saying Elder will shut these guys down but we see where we've been attacked each week it's time to see if we have an upgrade at nickel, the one thing that may be harder then we consider is team chemistry Ron could throw that off with a change being that we are winning the d is probably content idk just an alternative to why Captn has no competition and minimal production.

Unfortunately that's Rons MO.  New players will not get a chance unless there's  an injury. Sad. 

Lol the sad truth.

Mick Mixon made the same mistake on the radio. Don't apologize. 

The slot corner is the middle manager of the defense, they will catch poo from all directions just so someone has somewhere to dump it. When you can't get around Bradberry and you have Luke coaching up Jackson before each drive, there is only one place you can go. Munnerlyn is likely an average slot corner with tons of experience which helps out in situations where the offense may be able to trick a younger guy.

Big Ben comes to mind.

      a look at our 19 udfas

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      And, honestly, there's only so much you can attempt to do in the draft. And every draft pick is a roll of the dice. But that's where grabbing a ton of UDFAs, and targeting the best, makes a big difference. Sure, their individual chances of getting a hit here is less, but that shotgun pattern might just hit something.  Right now, we need bulk, partly to rebuild and partly to dilute the deep level of stank that has developed on this team in the last six years. If we're going to rebuild a culture built around culture, accountability and winning, then these UDFAs we bring in each season have to be the wash water that gets out that leftover dirt.  Canales seems to be a smart, culture-first, build up the good ones kind of guy. I like that and I hope he can keep it going here. But he was working against a locker room that had been taught to lose and taught to distrust or ignore coaches. He's got his work cut out for him, still. He does seem to have it moving in the right direction and that's something I was pretty amazed with by the end of last season.

      Strength of Schedule for 2025

      By shaqattaq · Posted

      The most telling sign, IMO, of a team on the upward swing is who we lost in the off-season. Who left that even saw the field? Woods, Clowney, Sanders, & Hekker. OK...no big deal. Clowney is the only 1 that I raised an eyebrow over and I get that it was a money decision. No need to pay him over $7M to take snaps from our draft picks when he was just OK last year.
