Easily. This is SUPPOSED to be a cover-2 defense. The safeties MUST keep receivers in front of them. The coaches can scream at them 'til they're blue in the face; if the player doesn't get it, it's just a waste of energy. Both of these guys want to make a highlight reel hit rather than just tackle, and NEITHER know how to play deep. FFS, in the cover-2 the first & foremost job of the safety is to keep deep containment!
