These rookie CBs haven't allowed many yards in their coverage

I'm glad to see it. Guess the td scored on Lewis was one of the few catches he allowed.??

We really need these two to step up and stay healthy.

Lewis was thrown to the wolves last week and after an understandable shaky start he really seemed to settle in.

He is a good football player, barring injury he will be around for awhile.

Awuzie hasn't allowed a lot of yards because he has been out? and Lewis missed the first game (this is me not paying attention to PFF stats and just looking at the headline)

It's average yards per coverage I think.

 

[Shinaoi]

But that's not what people around here told me.

That would be nice but it would be difficult to determine responsibility in many zone coverage snaps.

If the CB in zone is initially on the WR but releases him to a Safety and the Safety fails, than does it count against the CB? If the catch happens far past the CBs zone then it can't be on him but where do you draw the line?

Lewis was better than reported by the media or many people around here.
He fell down and gave up a TD.

He had and INT.

He might or might not have been responsible on another TD which used a bit of a trick by the offense.

Otherwise he gave up a couple of short completions.

He tackled really well.

The Broncos were repeatedly throwing to that side when Carroll was playing but shifted to the other side when Lewis replaced him.

Credit to him for making the interception but let's not act like that ball wasn't overthrown. Had that ball been on target it was an easy reception as there was five yards of cushion between Lewis and the receiver.

Lewis is our best cover corner

I think Jamiel Showers will have something to say about before it's all said and done.

Awuzie is the unquestioned leader in hamstring injuries.

At least he caught it which is no guarantee with our corners. It's hard to be a ball hawk when our corners are coached to give so much cushion. Hopefully we'll have some newfound pass rush to help them out.

PFF is garbage. For the record.

I'm not sure almost anyone would have been a better pick than Taco- so far.

 

[DeaconMoss]

I think taking Taco in 1 and Chuzie in 2 was better than taking King in 1 and Smoot in 2.

 

[NeonNinja]

Hopefully Awuzie can get healthy and fast. I like both these rookies. Awuzie has a nice all-around game and Lewis will be our best pure cover corner.

Really? Then how did we get torched for 41 points last week?

Lewis is a man cover corner. Plays best when he is at the line jamming receivers. Forget zone with this guy play him at the line.
