[QUOTE="wist43, post: 559433, member: 9839"] I think the biggest factor in improvement in the secondary will simply be experience. TT refuses to bring vets in, so we have a constant turnover of youth pretty much everywhere on our roster - and that is nowhere more harmful than in the secondary where it takes a good deal of communication and recognition skills by the players for the unit to function effectively. I think we have some good players in the secondary, I especially like our corners, but the breakdowns and blown coverages are glaring and alarming. I was listening to sports radio in the car the other day, and Donovan McNabb tabbed the Central to be won by the Bears - citing our secondary as the primary reason for his skepticism. He said that in watching the Packers he was shocked at all the blown coverages, and the overall soft nature of the secondary. I tend to agree with McNabb, but I think we can get it straightened out back there enough to at least keep us in contention within the division. I don't like the soft philosophy we employ, but improved communication should produce more picks - if we can get back to leading the league in interceptions, that mitigates the poor tackling and soft play to some extent. I'm cautiously optimistic that the secondary will at least be marginally better this year. [/QUOTE]
