Why would MJ had been better prepared to cover a tight end had we been in the AFC?

To be fair our secondary always starts slow.

HELPED as in the "walk off" overtime loss to the Vikes?

Dennis Allen is alright as a DC, maybe even good but he's just not great. And his adjustments used to be what we liked about him. They are gone now. What happened to that guy?

A fair point. That would fall more on Aaron Glenn.

No. That would fall on the players executing. Coaches get too much credit and too much blame at times.

Very true. I think we all long ago came to the conclusion that Marcus Williams was trying to not get flagged for hitting a defenseless receiver.
