Well he's balling out in ATL and meanwhile we're getting poor play from our safeties!

Bates did play great his rookie season, not as good his sophomore season and fantastic in the Playoffs for us.

But we were never going to bring him back, it was always Bell and hoping someone could grow into the future FS. It is not Dax.

Luckily Dax is finding his nitch at boundary Corner at times, just needs to tackle better.

Stone hasn't been that good with us either, too bad.

So the FO had a terrible plan and were not allowed to call them out on it? Also why were the never going to sign  Bates? The guy was a great player for us on and off the field?

Agreed!
