I thought he was previously decent. Wonder what happened? Because he was awful today for sure.

I thought that Hadden was the source of a lot of the FU big plays, they seemed to be targeting him on just about every play

We played a LOT of zone
Hadden got caught looking into the QB once for a big play but really was out best corner by far.
One of the plays I think you were referring to was Tank's issue
The picked on Charles a bit but behind those two it was a disaster

However, besides getting trucked on multiple pays, missing open field tackles and flat sucking in pass coverage I think Flowers is a good safety

I was extremely pissed that THREE of them missed a tackle on that first gaytor TD.  Still am! 

Shades of the Purdue game (shudder)

how does that happen? Most of them were safeties in high school and were recruited for the position. Why do they look like they've never played safety before? I say it's coaching.
