Oh god yes. Trufant was targeted an awful lot today.

Yeah, Tru made one good play in the end zone but was a liability otherwise.

Tru, knock him all you want but he has the best hips to change direction, he was with the slot guy on most plays. They are professionals also, the played contain and a zone like defense a lot to prevent the Rams quick receivers for busting RAC runs.

I don't recall Lane doing that well against Amendola in the slot in this game. Trufant actually did OK, Amendola is really good in the slot.

Who would the Hawks be facing in the slot from the Cowboys/Skins?

Lane got beat more than once today, and I think Tru would have at least made that tackle that Lane blew.

Agreed. Lane blew a few assignments today but he's got a lot of upside.

Based on the Fox footage: Trufant played OK today I thought. Lane looked shaky out there today.

Trufant has been bad all year. Remember how bad he got lit up against Miami?

If we play Washington I hope the nickelback is Lane. Trufant just doesn't have the speed to stay with Santana Moss.

It's not about speed, it's about quickness, quick shifty guys have given our bigger corners problems if we don't play up and knock them off routes. Guys that can start and stop then start again at full speed.

I'm still not convinced Lane is much of an upgrade.

Losing Thurmond sucks.
