Agree. Anzalone should not be starting and is mostly useful for spectacular plays every now and then in a pass defense or blitz.

Too many of the remaining plays he is a liability.

Team run at right where he was and is supposed to be. He often runs right into the trash. Robertson plays better.

Anzalone and S. Anthony are high ceiling "potentials." Don't care about potential - only results.

It's quite obvious that he was injured.

Cover 4 should lock up the seams. Cover 6 can be vulnerable to the seams, so overall you’re right. A lot of coverages are weak there.
I try to learn something everyday. You have filled my quota for the day. Thanks rez.:D

I would subtract all stats from the Rams game and see where we were, officiating was so bad in that game that no stat mattered when you start doing a tally.

I know about 60 of those yards Kupp got on Lattimore in tight coverage face masking Lattimore to the house.

Then you got Hopkins, thats tall task for any CB to cover.

Bump ...

He's had a tough couple of weeks but Marshon sure did look spectacular last night though & eliminated a threat for Dallas.

Good week of preparation, film study & execution on the big stage.

Confidence building.

As it was explained and confirmed by Lattimore, he plays to his competition and tends to get lazy with less skillful receivers.

He kinda admitted a while back he was relying too much on his speed and less on proper technique so yeah, he does get lazy at times. Agree, he seems to snap out of it if it's a high profile WR like last night with Amari.

This was freaking Amari Cooper out there, in prime time, and even if Cooper wasn't 100% healthy, you play the man in front of you and Lattimore matched him and pretty much locked him down. He's obviously got some areas where he can improve but I'm nowhere near ready to claim Lattimore to be an Achilles Heel or to give up on the guy yet.

I’m totally buying the zone defense excuse now. They finally let Latt go man to man and play press coverage and we saw the results.

Lattimore did step up. Awesome but it was.
