Once Again,kicking Game Let Us Down

What about Carlos Rogers? Everytime I looked up he was letting another WR get by. He scared me just as much as Hall, at least I know Hall sucks. Was it just me, or did it look like Taylor was the only person trying on that defense, and credit to him for striking fear in the hearts of all recievers.

Did you notice that even when he got beat (and nothing came of it), he was stomping like he did something? And he got beat a lot tonight. I'm beginning to worry about our defense.

What did you expect?

Negatives: Showed much more confidence in his athletic ability in 2004, but in the past he would struggle in off coverage and give up too much cushion on the ball. It looked like he was hesitant to give up the big play … Has improved his work habits, but will do his "own thing" at times and needs to work in a structured environment to get the best out of his skills … Played mostly in man coverage in 2004 and had good success there, but still does not show a good feel to anticipate routes and is late on his turn when he peeks into the backfield too long … Has the speed to run with the receivers, but shuffles his feet too much through routes and lacks ideal hip snap to turn and run in transition … Can locate the receivers in front of him in zone coverage, but gets up on his heels too much … Not a fan of run support, as he gets tied up by combo blocks and gets soft when he has to face up to offensive linemen … Lunges and leaves his feet too much when making open-field tackles … The staff calls him a "coach on the field," but he has only adequate field awareness, shows stiffness in his turns, still allows too much separation and needs several reps to retain plays … Strictly a boom-or-bust type that may be better served in a Cover-2 system.
