Ok, here is the truth. You won't like it, but Acho saw who was to blame but decided not to call out who was responsible for both plays screwups. It was Micah. Period.
Acho knows this because he played LB and understands the role and assignments of a LB, both inside and outside types. The same goes for me at a lower level. Anyone who played LB and played it well should easily be able to tell who was responsible for both plays screwups. Two more reasons why Micah should not be playing stack LB back in coverage.
Here, watch it again a few times.
What gets me is how Micah refused to take responsibility when clearly it was on him both times.
I went back and watched the first play a couple times and it looks to me like Micah clearly messed up. In reality Jaylon had nothing to do with it with Micah’s mistake.
This was play-action, the TE is who Micah follows
Micah knew it was play-action, instead of taking the RB coming out for the pass up the middle, he follows the TE that pulled from the right side of the RT.
Your take seems right. Micah should have followed the RB.
