Speed looks good in coverage, but this coaching staff is too stupid to do anything different. thats why they're all going to be out of a job soon.

They're too loyal

Well, if Bumi says so, gotta be true.

Who needs Porter, we have Speed!! And Speed kills!!

We found the diamond that at least a few other teams couldnt utilize.

Maybe Jerry is a genius?

Clearly he is, I mean one lucky example out of 3000 counterpoints proves it!

So, he’s NOT constantly falling on the ground and he seems to have the recovery speed to stay with and/or catch up to receivers. What’s it gonna hurt at this point to give him more reps?

We get th else threads and then the next game that guy gets beat like a drum.

No. There's a difference between earning more playing time and being ready to cover the opponent's best receiver every week.

I don’t know about QB1 but the highlights of Speed are encouraging. Put him in CB2, JPJ at CB1 and Bland in the slot.

I got no faith in Revel. I’d like to roll with Speed

They are not just stupid, they played favorites. 87 and 26 are their faviorites.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

Yeah, I'm sure the previous six teams he played for just missed it.

 

[Aven8]

Follow the money……

We also have no pass rush and the one of our better pass rushers is always deactivated Houston……

 

[BigD5]

How do they have all these good players and best rookies ever and diamonds in the rough on defense but yet have the worst defense in Cowboys history at the same time?

Lol I hope nobody falls for this crap again or anymore. THEY SUCK. All of them! The coaches suck. Jerry and company just are not ever gonna change

 

[Creeper]

too small of a sample size but can he be worse than what we have seen out of the other CBs? Revel is too stiff. Bland is too soft. Durant may be too small. He's listed at 5'11" but he looks smaller to me. I am in favor of any changes at this point. That defense is the worst I've ever seen.

 

[FiveSuperBowls]

Bland just isn’t the same anymore, just bench him for now. Some players just need more time to adapt.

At the same time maybe he needs another set of shoes. He slips too much!

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

Try anyone back there with the way that D looks, can’t hurt.

He played 62% of the defensive snaps.

Somebody on the coaching staff likes him.

This is his 4th season in the NFL.

He played more snaps on defense this week than all 3 previous years combined.

He has been a career ST player.

 

[Desperado]

we have so many snaps where we leave a receiver completely uncovered, I don't know how you can use stats to qualify a defenders coverage numbers.

 

[exciter]

Hmmm... because he comes in and performs vs the WR who was most likely to be just a decoy simply proves he was in fact just a decoy.
Give him more snaps if comfortable, with the knowledge that the more film that gets out on him the more of his weaknesses are going to be visible for OCs to exploit.
The same weaknesses that led to 5 teams cutting him!
