I think he gave up a total of 5 first downs all by giving too much cushion.

Corners get beat and I can live with that but he was playing scared. You have to make them earn a first down.

He did make a great play breaking up the a pass that was intercepted but that was his only solid play.
I just re watched the game and thought he played fairly solid. He did give some cushion but I think it was due to where the safety was playing. Last week Drew Brees had 3td's with an average of over 50yds per td pass. our safeties (landry anyway) were playing deep. Several times I saw Fletcher dropp back 20+ yards in coverage on third downs... which suprised me... colston was out, yes, but they still have speed at that position.
