Boysboy, they were healthy in Sundays game and what did we give up? The same passes from weeks 1,2,3,4,5..................... They didnt even throw one pass Newman's way yesterday. Newman and Henery are better suited playing bump and run coverage. For crying out loud, Henery might be the slowest DB in football, his strengths since he came into this league was to get a jam and slow the wr down because hes so big. Newman should be allowed to play whatever he feels like he wants. Most of the time this season we barley got by and have been let down by our SCHEME. Playing 12 yards off half the time is ridculus. Thats like at worst giving up a 6-7 yard run on 1st down. Its there all the QB has to do is hike and throw it out there. Heres some research I did
Week 1 Burries 9-144 and Toomer had 8-91
Week 2 Chambers 10-109
Week 3 Berrian 6-73
Week 6 Welker 11-103, Stalliworth 7-136 Moss 6-59
week 10 Shockey 12-129
week 11 Moss 9-121, Cooley 8-89, Mccardell 5-76, Randel El 7-53 (Just freaking WOW)
week 13 Jennings 5-87 Driver 7-66
week 14 McDonald 8-96
week 16 Smith 9-144
week 17 Moss 8-115
10 out of 16 games we get killed by recievers having around or over eight catches. In four games, they had two recievers over that. Its the scheme. Its designed to give up 8 yard catches and if you dont tackle then your screwed. Theres no more evidence to prove im right by those numbers.
