How do you stand there and just watch the #1 WR in the league go up for the ball and not even attempt to deflect it or pick it off. If anything it looked like his ass was ducking out of the way. Get your arm up in there and rip his arm down so it falls.

I mean if he would have tried, then I wouldn't be so pissed.

Reed is not trash, he's a pretty good SS, but you can't expect him to go one on one with the best WR in the league. Including their verticals, AJ probably has 8" on doughty. Coverage has always been his weakness, because he's just not fast enough or able to contest balls wig athletic receivers. But he's always been solid in run support, and you can't say he didn't try on that ball. You can't really place blame anyone, it was simply exploiting a mismatch.
At least he looked better than whoever that Dallas defender was who gave up a jump ball in the endzone vs the bears haha.
