How did he play Monday night? I don’t recall seeing him much which is usually a good thing for a DB. Fuller had a pretty quiet night. Latt and PJ were getting abused so maybe they just kept going back to the well?

He gave up a few including a 50+ yarder to Fuller. But, I don't think we saw much if him because they ran so much zone.

We played a ton of zone, which is not Apple's strength at all. He's a very good press-man corner according to PFF, so naturally Allen has them play zone and off coverage quite often.

Dennis Allen, being the genius he is primarily called zone coverage when we have a ton of man cover corners. This is almost as stupid as signing Jason David (a zone cover corner only) to play in our Man coverage system.

Allen really is a POS as a DC.

That big fuller catch had a 15% catch probability. It was good coverage

Apple still hasn’t given up a TD as a saint
