Maybe you are looking for INTs and forced fumbles ala TM7.

No there is none of that. I didnt see playmaking turnover guy.

But Im actually more impressed with his cover skills and instincts. He blankets Tavon throughout the game. He takes away Tavon as an option for Geno. I consider that stud material and far more reliable than getting TO's.

His brand of play in this game buys time for others to sack Geno and recover the fumbles. Taking away Geno's best option led directly to punts.

That to me is stud material.

Good coverage isn't sexy. That sacks that result are however.

not going to lie, a lot of those route Tavon ran looked half-arse. Seemed like he wasnttrying to finish his routes.

He's tremendous in man and he played a ton of it in college.

I'm thinking the type of coverages he played probably had a little to do with his lack of turnovers produced. If he's sitting back in centerfield it's easier to do than sitting in the slot and pressing dudes.
