Not sure about Hughes, but market cut his head in the UAB game and got a lot of stitches which I'm sure weren't comfy. And why risk splitting it again against USA. That's a big reason Evans played so much

I'm a big fan of Redmond though. But he beat himself on that post. At least the post I'm referring too. You may be talking about a different one.
It's ok though...it doesn't make him a bad corner. It makes him human.
I've watched it 3 times too. Evans bit low and should've stayed home. Will tripped, but the WR split the seam and no one was there in the middle deep 3rd to squeeze him. you're suggesting that it was Will's zone or his man. it wasn't even a man coverage... you could argue it was his zone since the WR split the two, but he should've had help in the middle there. If that slot underneath would've hit a wheel route, that would've been Will's primary. Pretty simple zone concept on deep 3rds... and he covered two guys' zones: his and Evans.

No, I was suggesting that he was beaten, and he was. Yes, Evans should have had inside coverage and he blew it too....doesn't mean Redmond didn't get beat. And again, it's not a big deal. He got his hips twisted up and almost fell down. Whether Evans messed up or not doesn't change the fact that Redmond was beaten too. We've established that Evans was poor all day yesterday in coverage.
Everybody messes up from time to time, it's not a big deal.

I'm pretty sure Market & Hughes did start at safety. Coman & Evans are the 2nd team guys.

Not sure if the announcers said anything (I forgot to record, but was at the game), but we had about a 20kt breeze behind us in the 2nd. That's why the punt in the 1st was, how do we say, less than stellar. He did kick the snot out of it, though!
The North wind was quite strong at times.

Here's my take on the secondary... if the DL gets the pressure on the QB like they should, they will be zoning for picks..I attribute a lot of those drops due to the hurried passes.. It just seems to me that the secondary is a gambling style, that relies on the DL and LB's to disrupt the play from the line of scrimmage..
I know, Captain Obvious...
