Vonn Bell is terrible at cover 2. He always has been. That was the reason we signed Kurt Coleman. So why do we call a cover 2 on the play where the Ravens scored at the end?! I mean, I guess at a certain point you have to make the play call that you feel is right regardless of personnel.

That looked like Lattimore should have carried him further up field instead of playing the shallow flat so close to the LOS. Bell should have gotten over but Lat needs some blame there...

Allen needs to stop calling zone defense. The only thing we do well is play cover 2 man... Stick with that. We get into these 2min defenses and all I see is zone across the board.

I think Allen needs some help ... a defensive consultant. I know Nolan is focusing on the linebacker crew but Dennis could use the input. That last scoring drive by Flacco was far too easy. There is still a lot of confusion and TDs (high school wide open) given up on the back end each week.

Maybe Rezburna is available.

Exactly, bring in Kurt Coleman for Cover-2 because, you know, he can cover and you play him in the box...

Then you expect Vonn Bell to exchange and pick up Lattimore's receiver as Lattimore takes the flat, as he should, WTF did you expect DA?!?

Payton had better get an opposite CB and these Safety assignments fixed this week or we're going back to Minnesota in the playoffs!!!
