But, I can't remember him doing anything positive. Ever. And as we all know he gave up the big play to the Rams rookie WR. If Smoot was it wouldn't have happened. I know its not all his fault but if he learns how to turn his head (a very basic skill most cb's in college posses) around then we might be complaining why we squeaked out a win to this horrendus team instead of losing to them.

On review, he was actually in perfect position to defend the route, unfortunately Bulger just underthrew the ball, putting his WR in the best position. Torrence played it by the book and still lost.

If Landry had stayed deep, this isn't even an issue.

Thank you. No roster fire sale necessary. Torrence is blazing fast and his technique continues to progress (albeit a bit slowly). Cut him and what? Throw Tryon in there? No thanks.

Looked to me (also) that Landry got there just a step or two late, otherwise this would have been a sure INT. Torrence was def in perfect position and in the bigger picture he has improved vastly over last year IMO. He has learned how to cover (Lord knows he has the speed for it), now we'll see if he can take his skills to the next level and play the INTs.

That play was a bust because we got no pressure Bulger - give half the QBs in this league that much time and they're going to complete a pass. We need Torrence to step up his game but we also need the DL to get in there.
