He didn't have to cheat over, there's a safety on the other side of the field, that's why it's called a two deep zone.

Not if the other safety doubles another receiver in a three reciever formation. Duh.

I love Roy Williams, but this is another example that he cannot cover a fast receiver.

I don't know how far fetched this is, but Urlacher was a safety in college and when he got to the NFL he has been a Pro Bowl linebacker for years now.

Not this season, but maybe in the future it could be a possibility that Roy be moved to linebacker. Here he would dominate by being closer to the line of scrimmage and covering RB's and TE's all the time.

He's a liability late in close games, plain and simple.

LOL what coverage has a strong safety on the other teams fastest receiver??
Get real man, this was Glenn's fault. You name ONE..............JUST ONE FRIGGIN STRONG SAFETY IN THE NFL WHO CAN COVER FAST RECEIVERS!
Some people have no clue

Roy was all over the field tonight. He played an awesome game. The plays the Commanders called were perfect for the coverage we had, period. They executed. And if you have ever played the game, you know, when you have the right play called, and execute it perfectly, it impossible to stop. Thier OC guessed right and Zimmer didn't. You take RW out the line up and our defense goes down hill, FAST.

Roy made 2 BIG plays. The fumble at the end of the 2nd quarter - end result? Nothing.

The sack on 2nd and 10 - Ware was coming around on the other side a half second later.

Roy is a very good player, and a GREAT hitter, but his coverage skills, man, they need work.

Two deep with man underneath when the offense needs a LONG gain to get a first down? Sounds like a great call to me, except if Roy is going to let the WR run by him.

What would you like? A goal line stand?

LOL, what game were you watching? Roy was deep at safety...........GLENN let the WR run by him.:rolleyes:

He wasn't covering the WR, he "was" the DEEP SAFETY.

The problem is that all of those plays came within 10 yards of the line of scrimmage. He's a linebacker masquerading as a safety. He has good closing speed, but only when he's running towards the line of scrimmage, not the other way. He can harass QBs, RBs and TEs, not WRs.

Show me a strong safety that can cover, and I'll show you one that can't tackle. :laugh2:

We need to get Roy out of deep coverage fast! Every team we play will try to isolate him on WR's. Roy should play the LB spot in the nickel as Bill Bates did late in his career and leave the deep middle to Wille Pile and Davis.

I hate Cowboyszone because it seems like the b!tches and the whiners love to come out @ times like this. I'm relieved we lost.. let's move on
