He will wow you... then look like a rookie out of position...i think he is still young..and having Sharper in his ear helped..

He also had better CB/D-Line play last year to help him out. He's being hung out to dry a lot more this year...

Yep, he hasn't played well at all this year. Maybe we miss Dennis Allen (?) more than we realize.

Of course, without a pass rush Ed Reed would look bad too. We aren't getting pressure with our front four, which allows QB's time to shred any secondary.

There was ALOT of uncalled holding, and chop blocking going on up front, by their offensive line. Not making an excuse, because that happens, but an observation. Malcom has regressed, no doubt. Needed Sharper for at least one more year IMO.

I think he should get sharper back to teach everyone on the D, how to catch a ball.

We could have also used Steven Jackson as well.

How bout; Play Chris Ivory....duhhhhh.....we were short a running back, and it really seemed like we needed him when you add it all together. I cant wait to see Ivory play again. Hope its next week.

I agree Papz. Jenkins is late getting over in coverage. The first series if anyone else is QB the Rams score a TD. He just did get a hand on the ball to knock it away. Then he bit on play action and charge towards the line and again his man was wide open but Feeley over threw him. He's just not sure what he's suppose to do back there sometimes. His first job should always be to help come over the top in coverage and he's either late or not there at all. He's still young as a starter but he has to do a better job.

Exactly what I'm getting at. Last year he was just flying to the ball and it looks like his mentality has changed back there this one. He's getting there at least 3 steps late on help over the top and appears to be looking for the big highlight hit instead of making a play on the ball.

I know we haven't had much pressure rushing 4 this season, but we have had success bringing 5 or 6... though it varies from game to game. Even when we are getting pressure, Jenkins still hasn't been in position to make plays on the ball when we were accostumed to seeing last season. I'm not even concerned with the lack of INT's, more or less PD's, getting a hand on the ball, or just being in the play honestly.

I hope he gets back on his game... we need him to lead back there. With the amount of blitzing we have to do to get pressure, his play is crucial being our safety net back there.
