Originally posted by UglyTruth View PostRe-watching the game, Thomas Davis messed up more than just on the tackle on Hilton at the end of the game. He looks to be the one primarily responsible for giving up the 1st TD for Hilton as well and the Jack Doyle beat him badly at least twice with Brissett missing him one time and then connecting on the other time for a 20+ yards play. He was trailing Colts players on at least another 5 plays as well as they got by him in coverage.
He looks extremely slow. The strength of our defense last season was the speed of our LBs corps imo with Phillips, Brown and White all being quick to the ball.
Davis is going to be a major liability in coverage and he will get exposed even by lesser QBs like Stafford going forward imo. I'm not sure how he's an upgrade over Perryman who is probably equally bad in coverage but at least is a sure tackler and much more useful to stop the run.“Less is more? NO NO NO - MORE is MORE!”

My projection is that Thomas Davis will settle in nicely in our defense.
Note: In DIME he was our one LB.You don't know ball
