Two words : Malik Hooker. He is knocking that BS down or picking it.
Kind of BS by Quinn. Safety help or not he was in the trail position. If it wasn’t his assignment than Brown would’ve been left open. He just got burnt
Not necessarily disagreeing with Quinn.I mean, why would you question his statement - how does Quinn have any incentive to lie about this play? If the safety was supposed to have everything over the top, then this wasn't on Brown.
I agree Brown deserves some criticism in other areas, but I don't understand the choice to not believe DQ here.

Pressure on the QB would help.

But as a corner, you get help from your safety. That doesn’t mean you let the man run right by you and get stuck in a trail position.
Him trailing AB shows he was in man coverage and was beat. A safety coming over the top likely knocks the ball down and it’s not a TD. But you cannot excuse a corner who is in man coverage to allow a TD because we’re running a single high safety.
Add this to another reason why Almost Anthony doesn’t deserve to be a starting cornerI guess Quinn missed the body block attempt by Brown on Gronk that he ran through to get out of bounds when they had no timeouts left that probably would’ve ended any realistic comeback attempt when talking about his tackling
Oh no doubt, you’re absolutely correct. Publicly shaming an NFL caliber talent (small % of dudes can do what they do) isn’t the way to go. Brown is a million times the athlete I am.I am sure Brown got a dressing down in private by DQ, and now needs to prop him back up to the media because of course they are gonna keep him there. He bit on AB first move and it was history. He getting paid $5m per year. Can't have all your big contracts sitting on the bench. He is just trying to explain that one play, how about others where he kept getting beat or played soft.
And was surprised that the whole game we couldn’t get close. Nothing consistent at all. We had pressure last year at least a little. Got burned in the run game though.Yep. To beat Brady you need pressure up the middle in his face and we simply can’t do that.
Well the issue was a corner isn't suppose to slip lol. The corner slipping ruined everything even though Brady probably would've found someone open anyway.I'm no defensive mastermind, but a coverage that allows a WR to blow by a CB expecting help over the top doesn't seem like a good idea to me.
"Trailing technique" seems like nothing more than allowing the WR to gain a step on 2 on the CB.
