open position on the outside. everyone crazy if they think the badger's position will change next year. it's impossible 2 make the plays he makes on that island all game.

What about Vinson and Gibson, will they ever get playing time or will they just be journeymen on this team.

Simon and Mathieu but Collins will move up by October and push Mathieu to his normal role.

#7 isn't a cover corner. Hope he reads this and gets motivated.

Matheiu.... he is the Honeybadger. He didnt get that nickname for not going up against No.1 Receivers ......

Yes he did. He got that nickname by playing nickel and blitzing and creating turnovers. He didn't get that nickname guarding Julio Jones and AJ Green. (nickname came before this year).

This year he was burned hard by Rogers and in the BCSCG. He is just too short most of the time.

people kill me with this. a qb makes a nice throw against him maybe once or twice a game and that means he can't cover. tell me one time when he got beat and didn't have good coverage. when people start throwing bombs over his head for TD's then u can say he cant cover.

Mathieu is decent in coverage but his height hurts him vs taller guys and well thrown passes become even harder to defend for him.

I remember Patrick Peterson getting abused by Julio Jones and Jeff Fuller because of good passes by thier QBs. Does that mean PP sucks in coverage?

it was the same BS with Peterson. people really show how football stupid they are when discussing DB's and their cover skills.

I thought those throws by McCarron where fantastic. The wr's were covered! That is gonna happen when a qb makes a perfect throw and the wr makes a play.
