When Allen doesn't have to think he can look like a top 5 player. Throw in the lack of talent and it was what we saw.
Armani Watts was horrible. Thornhill as the lead dog safety looked lost.
Sad thing is we could have signed guys that cost 2 to 4 million and they would be worlds better.
Thornhill might be able to play in a different scheme. He just looks bad in ours. Sad because I was hoping for a lot more from a 2nd round pick.

I said in an earlier post EVEN IF the badger was in there the whole game Josh still plays lights out BUT it wouldn't have been as easy to have those WIDE OPEN TD PASSES because at least the badger would have had everybody lined up correctly and instructing everyone what their responsibilities are.
Which brings me to another question. It seems that are d-backs are completely lost when the badger is not out there. Are these guys really doing their just do watching film and actually learning? Is what the 2ndary coaches are trying to teach them sinking in ? Or do they just depend on the badger to instruct them?
