We know what Wingard is, a perennial special teams gunner, but seeing him play the deep safety position just doesn't make sense. The guy doesn't possess the necessary skills/athleticism to protect the field as literally the last line of defense - with more examples mounting against him in the other thread.

I'd rather take the growing pains of starting a rookie with Cisco, knowing that he at least has the ability to cover sideline-to-sideline and takes those chances.

Coming from a 1-15 season, we all know this team is bad overall, so we might as well play our "talented" rookies to gain valuable experience and go through the motions of this season together.

You're preaching the same thing everybody (minus about 2 people) are saying all over the nation. Hardly anybody understands why Wingard is getting the reps over Cisco. It doesn't make any sense. Wingard is the same exact player he was 2 years ago (which isn't any good), but that just pretty much falls in line with everything this staff has been doing for months now. None of them seem to have a clue on most things.
