Biggest problem with defense this season

The sad thing is...IF the coaching stays the same, Bates will likely regress. We've seen that happen a lot.

I'd say that Bates was the surprise of the draft though. He was supposedly good against the pass but a poor tackler. I'd say he was pretty good in both areas.

Safety is one position where I think we're ok. (Yeah people complain about Williams, but he's adequate minus some missed tackles here and there.)

Agreed on Bates he is one of the lone bright spots of this pathetic season along with Boyd and Mixon. Didn't think good football players could come from Wake Forest lol.
