Brandon Meriweather Out 2-4 Weeks

I feel the need... the need for Reed.

I dunno who was rubbing my nose in the whole, Doughty issue last week. But remember when I said Reed stinks as a starter and because God hates us, there's going to be an injury and Doughty will be a starter at least some of the games this season even though he's just an average backup?

Yeah. This.

I'm not chicken littling or anything. I just feel really vulnerable on the deep balls when he's back there. Maybe he's gotten better. I wanna see the guy do well, he's a really great man outside of football, but I just don't feel comfortable with him as a starter.

Meriweather isn't a coverage guy either, we'll miss him in run support.

Wouldn't it be Williams back there at FS and Gomes at SS?

Williams is not better than Reed. Reed is good at run support. Let Gomes try to cover.

bringing in merton hanks, they're tailoring his turtleneck as i type

Williams is already the starting free safety anyways is he not? It's just a case of going with Gomes or Reed in the SS spot. It seems Gomes got a few snaps with the starters according to reports.

I think Gomes will surprise, he's a scrappy player. Honestly, I think he'll be better than Meriweather who is always hurt.

Gomes can't be any worse than Barnes. Remember Barnes played safety back in 2010. Actually Barnes wasn't too shabby at safety. Hm.
