That's a new one. I can't tell you how many posts I read saying that McLeod sucked in coverage. Until he left of course. Now the defense can't get by without him.
And I'm pretty sure no said that the gw defense doesn't have someone play that role. What was said is that gw prefers hitters and tacklers to cover guys.
he was the deep safety, the one who played middle of the field in Cov-1 and Cov-3
What was said was "The rams don't seem interested at all in a traditional fs type. Gw wants the safeties to be interchangeable. Why keep harping about it?"
And they do have that guy, Davis. And before it was McLeod. And McLeod, before we got Joyner played some nickel back. Not so sure he "sucked" in coverage, but that's beside the point.
We talk about this because Davis got a promotion and we've not seen hm enough to know what we have. It's a fans concern. And whether you think they are good or not, McLeod and Davis are traditional FS types, to use that term. To suggest otherwise is wrong
