Bridges ultimate demise is no surprise after the abomination he called coverage vs. Calgary. He was Calgary's X factor in their victories. Pressure Vernon Adams check, move him out of the pocket check, cover the receivers downfied because all Vernon Adams knows is to launch it as far as he can throw when he is pressured....nope Bridges not within 20 yards of the receiver he was running with moments ago because he stopped to see what was happening. He broke the cardinal rule of DBing several times, stuff you learn in Pop Warner, run with your receiver until the whistle blows. You can look back as a DB but the feet gotta keep moving.

hopefully this will make the coaches realize now that just because a guy was here last yr...2...3 yrs....that maybe they aren't the best choise...and we see actual true TC competition finally

Bridges by all accounts had a great camp, but really got mentally rocked by Alford and never recovered.

The really good dbs we added started at training camp, and earned a spot.(0ther than ford)

This year we chose Bridges cause he seemed the safe choice. With others they may have had some growing pains but youd youd also see some great plays showing promise. Bridges didn't , not sure why it took so long to figure out

Not really that long.  5 and a half games.  He played alright in the first 3.

Bonds hasn't stopped getting torched since the first Calgary game.

We beat Toronto because for some reason they couldn't key in on Coxie vs Bonds or Vaval in the red zone.

We only stopped that connection by pressure.  Lucky they run plays for Ungerer, Mayala etc.  Dinwiddie's a genius.

Yea....secondaries are dependant on the front 4 getting home. I don't think our secondary problems are personnel right now.
