Josh Wilson #26

[RGIII]

I'm not mad at Wilson for trying to break up the pass rather than just tackle Bryant. It's easy for me to say that because the Skins won but It was also a great throw and blocking by the WR.

Still, Wilson should never take that gamble. He rolled the dice and lost big time. Had he stayed with his man or just tried to knock the ball down and not try to intercept it, that play doesn't happen. Josh Wilson is not Lester Hayes.

Watched the game again this afternoon and think that coaching may have played a big role in Wilson's coverage of Dez on the TD. What you can see on play after play is defense going hell-bent-for-leather separating balls from Cowgirls. Blow-ups in the end zone, more helmets on balls, etc. I think MS and Haz were preaching TO's all week, maybe even offering bounties. And overall, that strategy worked, even if it resulted in a TD on that play. Wilson made some outstanding plays otherwise, so we know he's capable of closing on receivers and playing smart.

Hopefully not for money.

More like offering a bounty for turnovers, not knocking anybody out.

Bounties just make me nervous in general now.

Josh Wilson is not a bad corner. In fact he's a good corner. If he gambles on a play like that, let him do it on a much shorter field. Not 85 yards from the end zone.
