Nah...our D-line manhandled their O-line. We got constant pressure with just 4 rushers...any secondary will play way better when that happens. It did appear that the communication in the secondary was on-point today with ZERO busted coverages that I can recall. Fitz's 26 yarder was the longest pass play, and it came when we were already up big in the 4th quarter. 5 passes defensed and Palmer clicking barely 50% (18-36) is a pretty good indicator that the secondary played very well. On second thought, maybe our secondary did play better without Harper back in coverage mucking it up...coverage ain't his strong suit. How bout that? I flipped. Harper is waaaay better around the line of scrimmage...the further away from the line of scrimmage the more of a liability he is. Ryan (I trust) is playing both him and Jenkins to their strong suits, especially after watching Jenkins in man-to-man coverage today.
