I'm just saying if Griffin wasn't the high priced FA signing and guaranteed starter on this Defense, people would be calling him out also. He was getting beat by the Brown's back up WRs/QB in the 1st game as well.

We just haven't gotten to watch Herndon get abused in a while because he only played 11 snaps in the Browns game before injuring his knee. They called it an MCL sprain and he hasn't did anything since.

Griffin let up a few catches but fwiw he made the tackle each time and was never "burnt". It's also really hard when you can't get pressure on the opposite QB. Once we have Josh Allen back I suspect Griffin will look a little better; Griffin is CB2 right now and I think Henderson is our best shot at locking up opposing team's top option outside the numbers.
