The Bears coaches (both Trestman and Tucker) were complimentary of our secondary. Trestman singled out Church, in particular, in his press conference as a guy who really outplays his reputation when you look at the Cowboys on tape. I don't know why our fans don't like him better. He's a try hard guy who excelled at STs and then earned his way steadily onto the roster. He tackles well, hits well, covers well even with limited speed, and is a value signing for the team and a high character guy. I think people just think he's too slow to cover well, and they don't really go much beyond that.
Our secondary isn't really our problem. We're very mediocre up front on defense, and we get too little DL pressure up front as a result. We could upgrade 3-4 positions on the DL next year alone and not bat an eye.
Speaking of which, was it just me, or did Brent look like he had a slo-mo camera on him at the snap all night? Ok power, but I was getting to 3-Mississippi before he even made contact with the OG in front of him.
