Late night bullshit: Solving the impossible problem of how to replace Chris Owens.
I'm guessing we're not seeing Owens for a while, after his unfortunate injury.

Owens has been a big win for Dorsey and this team. He's played good, fundamentally sound football in the slot.

Losing Owens for a few weeks normally wouldn't be that big of a deal, but it is with us because the next guy on the depth is Phillip ****ing Gaines, a guy who allowed 5 TDs this preseason.

Five. In four games. To 2nd and 3rd string QBs.

So, assuming Eric Berry returns, what do you do?

Poll forthcoming. Edit: Alright, I screwed up the poll some.

Here's the options, as I attempted to list them:

a. Play Gaines at NCB, play Berry/Abdullah/Parker at safety
b. Play Parker at NCB, play Berry/Abdullah/Coleman at safety
c. Play Berry at NCB, play Abdullah/Parker/Coleman at safety

The thing is, while Abdullah is fantastic in the slot covering short to intermediate routes, he can get beat deep due to a lack of long speed. We saw that once during the pre-season when he was matched up one on one in the slot with AJ Green I believe it was.

Parker was the one who gave up the long bomb to Green.

Here's the thing...
I don't think Parker is a long-term answer at FS. On the other hand, if you give Berry time to learn FS, I think Abdullah at SS and Berry at FS is actually an excellent 1-2 punch. I don't see a point in kicking Abdullah out when I think he's proven he's a good starter at SS, and we all know Berry has talent to play FS (whereas Abdullah doesn't have the speed to play FS nearly as well).

If you put Berry deep, you take away everything he does at the LOS.

But he might get 1 more INT per year.......
Anybody who thinks Berry needs to move FS needs to be educated on what an elite SS looks like and what their importance is.

I'm plenty familiar with what an elite SS looks like. If Berry was truly an elite SS, you would notice an appreciable difference when he left. We haven't seen that. Polamalu had that kind of impact on the Steelers defense. Berry has elite physical skills at SS. He's physical, great tackler, can explode in the run game, versatility to play LB, cover TEs, SS, single-high, sometimes nickel. He also has the rare skill set to blitz. I get all of that.

What I'm not sold on is his instincts. Because his reads not only impact his ability to make plays, they impact the entire defense. If he stays at Strong Safety, he has to show noticeable improvement there. I'll give him a 1 year pass because he was learning a new defense, but I think the reason you don't see as much of a dropoff is that maybe Abdullah is the more cerebral SS of the two.

I like Berry at either position. I originally advocated for him to play SS. But we're in a different situation where I think we're finding we actually have a pretty good SS in Abdullah, and we have a Safety in Berry who most people believe has elite abilities to play either Safety position. Combine with the benefit of hopefully saving Berry's body a bit and I'm thinking this looking like a better idea.

Ah. I remember him.

I was certain he was going to make the roster. Actually, he did, didn't he? I believe he was cut following the Titans game.

Both Gaines and Parker currently blow chunks as a corner and have speed to ball as a fs type. So both of them on the slot? Jk
