Diggs might be the reason we can't stop the run

[maryquality]

Diggs is the least of your problems when trying to stop the run. Come on man!!

 

[CWR]

maybe its me, but if you need your CB to stop the run, you got some serious issues.

Na, it's not just you. If were down to blaming our cover corners for run defense we've about exhausted the list.

 

[iceberg]

If you expect your corner to be the leading tackler against the run, you already lost. He is the last line of defense off the edge.

@BrAinPaiNt does have a point they were sweeping a lot and he's more a liability there.

 

[RonWashington]

Yeah I’m of the school of thought your edge contain starts with your front then to the LB’s
When it gets to Diggs look for a first down coming for the other team . Jourdan Lewis will scrap with the best of them the other CB’s are counting vested pension days

 

[starfan1]

that play irritated the mess out of.That and the dropped pick

 

[JW82]

This guy knows his stuff. According to him if we just cut Diggs and Zack Martin we'll win the superbowl!

 

[RonWashington]

While on the topic of matadors in the secondary at safety am I asking too much of Hooker to pick off a bomb every now and then . He got paid now let’s see some turnovers .

 

[Aven8]

Zimm has to love non tackling corners!

Correct my friend.

Yeah passing up the front 7 to Diggs sounds like tomfoolery

 

[Havic]

Malik Hooker 20 yards out from snap is why we can’t stop the run

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Oh hes definitely not the reason we suck vs the run, but his play is just a microcosm of this team's soft spirit.




Does Diggs in his entire career even attempt to make this play?

Diggs was hitting week 1 scapegoating him is nuts with you see how crappy the 330 pound guys were playing and how soft.

You don’t think it’s the 330 pound defensive tackles getting pushed back 10 yards?

He was hitting huh? Lol ok. And I'm not scapegoating him for week 1. I'm saying he's soft which is what I've been saying. He's not the main issue in run defense.

 

[MyFairLady]

Surprised how many of you don't consider the CBs to be an important part of stopping the run. The corners for the Saints were looking to destroy our ball carriers and it showed.

 

[Bagman]

He should be part of the effort. Especially when the opponent is in a run heavy formation. On anything resembling an off tackle run or sweep, Diggs was getting washed easier than a dish towel. I love Diggs the person and he's a great ballhawk but he gives 25% on run support.

 

[Adreme]

Na, it's not just you. If were down to blaming our cover corners for run defense we've about exhausted the list.

Next up will be blaming Dak and Lamb for not being able to stop the run. Maybe we can blame a random fan as well because their sunglasses were too distracting.

Not what I said at all. Simply suggesting that we should hold our highest paid "superstar" level talent to a higher standard. Did not agree at all with the Diggs contract. Did not agree at all with the Martin extension. I feel like the money could have been much better spent elsewhere. Also feel like our "leaders" are not holding the rest of the team accountable. At the end of the day I believe we are where we are because of them. Hey if you want to show them blind love that is cool good for you I am sure they appreciate it.

 

[iceberg]

yea, i want all my pass D stopping every heavy run formation.

that's why i have $20mil cbs.

 

[MyFairLady]

And people wonder why we lose. Look no further than this.
