Quote:I pointed out last year that Telvin is aweful in zone coverage.

On Madden...his zone coverage would be like a 56.

He is better in Man to man coverage.

I agree he's better in man to man, but I strongly disagree about him sucking at zone coverage. He jumped quite a few balls last year playing zone. He dropped 2 pick 6s last year covering the flat zone. He's good at using his speed to bait the QB into thinking a guy is open, but he tends to get caught on play fakes fairly often still because he's a young guy. He gets beat up the seam every so often, but Gipson was brought in to take that play away from the offense.


Don't forget Telvin is a 3rd year, former 5th round pick. He's got a lot of learning to do still. If he stays healthy he's going to be pretty darn close to an elite coverage LB I think.
