Re: T.O. vs DeAngelo Hall......Round 2

ironically,
Hall may be more value to us as a nickle anyways.

As nickles are usually covering the middle of the field, that is where interceptions happen.

I do like Hall as a nickle because of this....I am definately not comfortable with the idea of Hall covering TO. I'm sure the Skins coaches aren't either.

If I were the Cowboys, I'd move TO to the slot and hope Hall tried covering him as Hall has historically had issues covering TO....its because TO is so slippery with all that spitting he does.

So if let's say that Springs is healthy (very unlikely), how would they make the coverage assignments? Spring-T.O.; Rogers-Williams; Smoot/Hall Nickel?

And the more realistic situation, without Springs...who do you assign to Rogers and who do you assign to Smoot?

Without Springs, we're screwed. We would have to play zone. Last time, they didn't have Roy Williams, and we had Shawn Springs for three quarters of a game.

Hall and Smoot should rotate reps against Crayton/Miles Austin, but we should NOT have them on the field at the same time. Just too charitable for Tony Romo. I do want to see both of them this week though.
