What's that I wonder?

Laurinitus getting benched?

Not sure we can afford to bench him right now. After watching the game yesterday I believe the only other lb worse in pass coverage is his replacement Robertson.

We only struggled in pass coverage when we played zone (1st half), and it wasnt just Robertson that struggled. Give him a little praise, he's played OLB for ages and moves into MLB and is suddenly making all the calls.

As soon as we changed to man coverage, they looked miles better.

No way is JL better than Robertson.

He got smoked on that td pass. Got sucked up in a play fake. I do believe he is capable of starting I just think it is to early to give up on James.
