That's what he's pointing out, or that's how I took it. Dax's speed and athleticism allowed him to get out there to defend the pass, had he recognized earlier, that same speed and athleticism may have allowed him to jump the route and potentially get a pick 6. I personally think these two will wind up better than the duo they're replacing. It's great to get them reps as a tandem going forward this year.

Right, we all knew that there was going to be a bit of a drop off while they young players were developing.  It's easy to spotlight their youthful shortcomings during an anticlimactic season like this one, however if the offense were putting up 34 pts/game, as many expected it to, the perspective of the young and developing secondary would be much different.
