He missed a ku WR on a bubble screen that went for a TD as well. Pretty much our entire defense (Ian included) are tackling like FP's. LOL at your pic/caption change.I love your steady pessimism, I wrap it around me like a warm blanket.It's more of a steady meltdown. I don't really erupt, just a nice steady flow. I'm consistent like that.

Watts is pretty good at playing centerfield in coverage but he is very below average as a cover safety.So we have an average speed, aggressive, run stopping safety that isn't a particularly hard hitter and is below average in coverage.I've really rooted for Watts, but he certainly haven't progressed how we wanted, because of injuries or not.All he's good at is tackling at the line of scrimmage. His open field tackling is horrible.Untrue.Hey, look at the bright side....we could have Tetuan back there. And Rusty, if you say Tetuan was better, I'm going to go
