Did D. Hall Just Blast Zorn and the Inept Offense?

Don't make excuses for the offense to justify your poor play. Just say I got beat and I gotta do better next time w/out mentioning the offense.

Your D. Hall hate is showing. Nothing he said was covering up for anything.

While I truly think that DeAngelo said nothing wrong here, let's not act like he wasn't trying to offer a potential excuse for future things going wrong. He was absolutely right: there's not a whole lot of margin for error when you play the Rams. He gave up one TD. If he had given up a second, we probably would have lost. He's absolutely 100% right.

Of course, don't ignore that the offense isn't responsible for giving Hall enough of a cushion to completely suck as an NFL db, and still play on a winner. Hall took responsibility for his poor play, but he's on a razor thin margin right now between acceptable and unacceptable coverage. The reason that there's no margin for error has little to do with the offense.

NFL cornerback is a ridiculously difficult position. You need multiple players who can play it well. Hall has to show he belongs in that category.
