Dang, Pirk just said what I believe the root of the problem is...the players don't trust each other to do their job. You could see in the multiple BCC breakdown of Poz's play, he was trying to overcompensate for not trusting that LaRoy, Telvin, or Dakota would be in their right spots, thus putting himself badly out of position. You can't tell me Poz doesn't know his assignments or is slacking...he just doesn't trust that his teammates will be doing theirs. 

 

The same was shown in a few breakdowns I saw of Gratz against the Colts. It looked clear that he didn't trust the safeties had his back deep at all. There were several screenshots showing two guys on Gratz's side of the field. In those cases he should have passed on the deep receiver to the safety and stuck on the receiver running the cross/out/flat, but he didn't trust the safety and they both trailed the deep WR leaving Hilton/Fleener/Allen/etc wiiiide open to pick up easy first downs and more underneath. Just like with Poz, I don't think it was an issue of simply not knowing his assignment or what the coverage was supposed to be.
