Like I said you were not in huddle and dont know what he was to do. Why would they have LaVar covering a TE of Gates calliber, he didn't cover him all day. Taylor and other safeties covered him all day. so I think its hard to believe at the end of the game they would switch that sence they kept Gates in check all day. When LaVar was blitzing, he could n't get in back field, and DT,DE and rushing players are tought if you cant get in the backfield hold your possition and get your hand up, now maybe he didn't get his hands up. I seriously doubt that LaVar was responcable for Gates, he didn't have him all day. Plus on passing plays where LaVar would be in coverage, he generally is taken out in favor of Clemons.

Skindog nailed it, if it was a blitz as you say, then he blew that as well, I watched the replay he just stood there moving to his right a couple of steps following the QB's movement, while Gates slipped out to Lavars left. No I wasen't in the huddle but I have to assume that Williams who has been our best and most intelligent coach by far, had Arrington over there for something more than his good looks, then considering Lavar's track record with reads of this nature I then put my conclusion together, but yes you could be right, and I could be wrong, I was not in the huddle, nor did I hear someone from the caoching staff say he blew it, that was my own conclusion.

Actually Offiss the saftey had responsibility on Gates but took a bad inside move. Then lost the angle on him. Who was that you might ask? Sean Taylor
