It's a pretty aggressive approach to play man coverage, and I think that's what happened more often than not.

Ding ding ding.  We have a winnah!

Having those CBs is part of the reason Denver was so effective on defense these past few seasons.

Going back further, the Raiders of the 80s with Hayes and Haynes were one of the best CB tandems in history, and enabled them to play fantastic defense.

To go along with that.  To play man coverage against a team like the Steelers is pretty bold.  That overall signals "belief" in the defense by the coaching staff rather than try to "cover up" any deficiencies.


There are 10 kinds of people in this world.  Those who understand binary and those who don't.
