Adam Schefter hyping up Caleb Downs

Maybe, but he didn't win a lot of his matchups with Chris Olave in the scrimmage with the Saints from what I read. But hopefully, a nickel safety isn't going to be shadowing a receiver like Olave all over the field. Those are good tests for him in practice, but scheme should have him playing underneath routes in zone instead of manning up against the other team's best.
Darren Woodson was a monsterback at Arizona St which was considered a LB position and Jimmy had him covering WRs in the slot as a rookie in camp. It will definitely make him a better coverage guy.
 
Make it full screen and freeze frame it as it plays. Remember, the current rule is 3 feet down equals a catch at that point whether you're going to the ground or not. There was possession, one foot, two feet, and a knee (which is the same as 2 feet, so call it 4 feet now). Catch is done right there. The ball coming out without being touched is a fumble but he was touched so he's down at the spot. Excellent call without replay.


Other reports say from different angles, the ball hit the ground.
How is this different from the Dez catch?

I have not did the freeze frame yet though.

The difference is the rules have changed. Dez' no catch would be a catch today. Just like this is.

Who cares in reality? That was solid coverage by Downs, which is the real topic of discussion.

Yeah no catch. Stop it lol You have to maintain control as your going to the ground as well.
