2 great games in a row. I was not paying super close attention, but it seemed like from the snap counts of the DBs, there were times when we only had two CBs in (the 5 man fronts). I think Hilton stayed on in a lot of those packages with CTB, but may have come off in some obvious passing sets with 3 CBs being CTB, Turner, & Chido.
But someone who has watched a replay needs to check me on that. I am just guessing it from the snap counts.
DBs:
D. Hill 59 (100%)
CTB: 57
Turner: 42
Hilton: 40
Scott: 39
Awuzie: 27
Battle: 18
J. Davis: 1
Wilson played 59 and Pratt 54.
Anyway, Hilton is as good as gets for a CB vs the run. Sticking with him + CTB in the 5 man fromts (only 2 CBs) makes a ton of sense. But he is our 4th best pure cover corner. If it is an obvious pass play and we are playing 3 CBs, (not dime with 4) it makes some sense to get him off. Anyway, it puts him, and us, in better situations to succeed. When Chido was out, Lou did not have the option.
