D-lo: still cannot be trusted in pure man-to-man coverage.
Let's see...which games will our cover-0 blitz be torched thanks to Hall.
Kolb and Romo have had their moment of glory. Cam Newton might...Tom Brady sure as hell will...Sidney Rice has the talent....

I don't even care that he "takes responsibility" for the blown coverage. I would him rather not say anything or simply say "we didn't execute". I'm not going to hate on Hall for that play because he's been pretty decent for the most part this season. The defense has been stellar on 3rd downs and he's a part of that as well. The thing that irks me the most is last year how he trashed Haslet for not putting him on the best receiver, claimed it was "his" team, and still allows the big plays from WRs. Just shut up is my point.
I kinda agree with NC here. I like that Hall mans up and apologizes and takes responsibility and all that, but he wouldn't have to do it if he had just kept his mouth shut.
I also see Hall's point as well though, he was severely pissed about losing this game, and he didn't cool down, and then they stuck a microphone in front of his face. I'd probably have reacted the same way. Some people wear their emotions on their sleeve, and Hall is one of them. Still though, I hope this game is fresh on their minds when the Cowboys come to Fedex.

There are a lot of poor cover corners in the NFL. If Hall's behavior on the field and in the locker room wasn't so out of line with all of the most similar NFL players, I really don't think he'd be such a polarizing player. I think we'd all just accept him for who he is: a Washington Redskin. But the fact that he acts like a man who we don't want to define "Washington Redskin" is what makes him so polarizing.
