I always said that Pollard was asked to do a ton more than any safety because he played in a cover 2 for one, he played in a cover 2 that couldn't rush the passer (double whammy), and in run D, RBs too often made it to the second level untouched. Your safety shouldn't be asked to make tackles on a RB as often as Pollard and Page were last year.
I liked Page a lot more than Pollard. The more I watch Page the more I realize I was wrong. I think Pollard was a much better piece to the puzzle than Page is.

GoChiefs was wrong too. The difference is you admit it.
