Single High-Safety against Drew Brees was a ridiculous defensive coverage to be in against a team with the passing game the Saints are in possession of.

Landry's not ever been a coverage Safety. He's a Centerfielder. The 'Skins Defensive staff made him look really poor in that game.

But you're right. Instead of just standing there, he shouldn't have committed either way. When you're the only one there you have to make a decision on what to do, and that's what a good offense is designed to do through the air: force you to make a choice, & then throw it into the area you vacated.

The coverage he was asked to play put him in the position he was in and we took advantage of it. You can't play single high and expect him to guess right every single time, much less expect Drew Brees not to make any Safety pay no matter which way they guess.

Your take is pretty much uninformed bro. He's a good safety but got sh!teous coaching.

He does do stuff like this, though.

I don't follow the NFL that closely so I have no idea if the quote above has merit or not. But assuming it is, it's disappointing that someone feels the need to find the (only) weak part of someone's game and attempt to use that to define the entire career. Note: we have never had a perfect player at any position.

Laron was nothing short of fantastic at LSU ('cept I didn't care for the taunting - no need to get snot runoff on your cleats). He was a 4 yr starter and if I remember correctly chose to return for his Sr. season when he would've been a very high draft choice after '05. There's so much to celebrate about his career at LSU.

I think he wants what every Tiger fan wants and that is for Tyrann to get his act together as opposed to being sucked down the drain. Who would have a problem with that? And how does that lead someone to complain about his coverage skills?
