It's a strange mindset we Fans have with backup players forced to step into starting action and our expectations for them.

I agree, and lack of pressure early in the season only magnified the issues. DA is trying to protect him as much as possible but cushions can only do so much for so long.

I agree 100% we are playing reserves at most of the DB positions with several key #1's on the defensive side on the sidelines looking in. I give DA prop's for bringing these reserves along, improving every week which will cetainly pay dividens going forward. Building depth of experience with our young players that will be key going forward.

DA has put the best team he has available on the field, when he starts to get his #1's back we will see the true measure of his defense, then and and not before. All the negativity about the why's and where for's, coulda woulda shoulda's is background noise at this point, not saying there is not mistakes that have been made. But it is what it is and it is improving.

3 wins out of the last 4 with the "D" making its contribution to the win and the #1's starting filter back to the field is a good thing.
