He’s had a nice season but man, they picked on him allll night. After putting this on tape, he better be ready for this every single week. He got his INT tonight, you’ll get a lot more opportunities now.

Nelson gets too many props, he’s been lucky all year now teams are starting to figure it out.

Nelson has been pretty damn good all year. He has become an important part of the defense. Luck doesn't have anything to do with it.
 
Edmunds is the one who should not see the field. He simply isn't getting it done.
 
DB's sometimes get beat. Even on the completions he had pretty good coverage. Joe Haden has had a bad game or two, it happens. I did not see a corner overwhelmed I saw a guy battling against a good player and making him work for it. We only gave up 17 and should have won going away if we had any creativity on offense.
 
My complaint with the defense last night was the zone on 3rd and long and not blitzing the QB. They lost contain on the one 3rd and long early and he got the big run on 3rd down up the middle. You give any QB time with a zone D and minimal pass rush and he's going to find open receivers.

No issues otherwise with our defense last night. They gave us the ball a couple of times and once a very short field that we gave right back. That was the difference.
 
Edmunds was a horrible pick where they drafted him. That was such a strange pick when the guy had a fourth round grade and we could have taken him later.
He cannot cover, he’s always late to the receiver, he’s late to the ball carrier, like most of them does not tackle well. Very bad pick.

Our coaching staff clearly watched no film of Bill's game vs Ravens last week. Ravens had 6 sacks and 12 tackles for loss. They blitzed the hell out of Allen, he never had time to throw like he did last night.

He is better than Edmund's.

That is the definition of a back handed compliment. Edmunds has not performed up to his draft position nor the money he is being paid.

Edmunds was replaced quite a bit last night in coverage situations with Mike Hilton. That says a lot.
