Re: Possible Reason for Carlos's Problems?
All three of Carlos' interception chances have come from the slot this year, with him (eventually) making the catch on just one ball.
This is changing the subject a bit, but I think our scheme needs a dominant coverage safety more than any nose tackle or rush linebacker. Kareem Moore just isn't good enough, I don't think. We've received better-than-adequate play from our corners, and have a pretty consistently below average (certainly no better than average) pass defense.
Most completions in the void I mark as "hole in zone" and then chart the corner who had the first read. But it's really not so much the corner's fault if he's playing outside leverage in a cover three. If the free safety isn't instinctive enough and tough enough to punish receivers and offenses for throwing the same dig pattern over and over, offenses aren't going to stop doing it.
Oh, and Carlos Rogers can't catch.
