37 Reed Doughty

[rypper11]

He's been a really good special teams guy a solid tackler. Rather than moving him in and out of the lineup I'd rather see PP keep playing in the nickel and dime and let Reed stay in the standard packages. It's gotta be tough for him watching game film on the first half of the season to watch what his postion should do against different offensive options.
I think it says a lot about what the coaches think of his potential that they kept so many safeties at the beginning of the season.

That's a good point. And since he's started the past 2 games they obviously feel he's earned the spot.

They should put Landry in Taylors spot to play deep coverage and put Doughty at Strong Safety. Landry is just as fast as Taylor, he can cover, and he's a hard hitter. I know he'll probably never be as good as Taylor, but if anyone on our team can replace him, it's Landry.

Maybe I'm wrong but from what I have seen of Landry he plays a lot better closer to the line. He stops the run really well but I think his deep coverage is a little suspect. I'm just going off what I've seen though I could be totally wrong - and I hope I am.

I like the thinking on this one.

The one thing we will miss is LL is quick when playing up close to get after the QB.

I thought the same thing about Landry. His speed will allow him to range sideline to sideline the way Taylor did. I hope all of our safeties play big the rest of the year - it would be a nice tribute to Sean.
