A Different Question

what I couldn't figure out is why they left wade there it obvious they were picking on his side

Because Wade is our best cover corner. Morley didn't exactly help the situation, he had a couple chances to really lay the wood to Monk and didn't.

I feel Morley is going to be a great player but something is lacking but what I am not a coach so I don't know. But man the kid has the speed and the ability. Is it just maturity or what

He goes for the interception too often. As a safety, you are the last line of defense, and as such, you should always make sure that you are taking down the potential receiver. Safeties should get interceptions as gifts, they should rarely be making amazing plays to grab interceptions (those gambles usually catch up.) Ronnie Lott and Troy Polomalu (sp?) are great examples of what a safety should be (Gibril could be added to that list). They patrolled the field and punished receivers when they came across the middle. Morley still loves to play the ball.

It's called football instinct. It can't be taught and Morley doesn't have it.

I have seen this over the years watching our secondary, it appears that our secondary always goes for the strip or interception and usually ends up paying the price for being too greedy. Just tackle it will make a better play

Could he sound anymore idiotic during his halftime interview with Tracy Wolfson. Paraphrasing, "we got to get # 5, we got to tackle his butt". I was waiting for him to spit some tobacco juice at some point.

That appeared to me to be a successful yet stressful attempt by our head coach to not let an expletive laden rant be caught on national television.
