Lattimore needs to focus on himself and his own inconsistencies in a contract year

After Booby Hebert, Morten Andersen, among others (Andersen still stings for me), we're due..

Losing Jack Rabbit was a big blow.

It gets real on Sunday.

Trade Williams? Do we not recall the days of the Available/Not Available Jairus Byrd? Two great downs of defense only to give up 3rd and 17? Never getting off the field?

Folks had better wake up to Mr. Marcus value and set aside that one BS play; Elite Defenses all have one thing in common - an Elite Safety...

Adebo is gonna be the goods, #BePatient

Desmond comes from a family of Cornerbacks, his Brothers Marcus and Isaiah both played in the League.
Don't think your going to find a more experienced player out there.

Hebert has been a little more booby of late.

JP -

So who is your #2 CB? Mr. Mansfield (Adebo) or Crawley? Green Bay/Rodgers coming with 4 sets.

Mine or Sean's? If it's Sean's, it'll be the healthiest of Trufant or Crawley...

You know I'm not scared - play rookies, that's how they get better, stop being rookies...

Point well taken however tread with caution on starting rookies on those boundaries. Dee Milliner Justin Gilbert and DeAndre Baker … former 1st rd CORNERS and also busts. Lose confidence early and it’s over.

We have Kris Richard on our side so I trust he’ll do the right thing with the secondary.

Remember that old quote from Parcells …”I won’t throw a player to the wolves unless I know he has a little wolf in him

“. Maybe Adebo is that dude.

Unfortunately we have to have our first game with one of the smarter
passers in the league. Arrogant Aaron will expose the weak spots very quickly.
