Did a good job. Looks awkward when he has to come up and tackle still... kind of like a fish out of water flailing their tiny body for air. But if he covers well that's what gets ya paid.
 
Thought that the corners did their job well. Rarely heard Collins', Higgins', and Noel's names, and Durant got a nice pick.

Safeties struggled. Thought that Kinchens should've had that pick because of the weak roughing call.
 
Lots of soft zone going on. Was tough to watch and reminded me of the Raheem bend don’t break years.

But when you give up 9 points and no TDs, who the hell am I to complain.

Pash rush seemed rusty especially Verse.
Should have feasted more vs that Oline.

Did Forbes beat Dwill out of a job?
 
Could have been the scheme and could have been the pass rush but I don't think we should overlook our CBs when we almost completely shut down an elite WR like Nico Collins as well as up and comers like Higgins, Noel, etc.

We'll see how the rest of the season goes but we might have found our ideal composition of zone specialist CBs and that includes Forbes who started and played almost the entire game. Could be a secret superstar for us with his unique build and speed/length skillset. Just don't line him up against AJ Brown unless you want to activate his PTSD...
 
Darious Williams was not seen today on the field, because he is obviously the #4 CB now.
Forbes and Durant seem to be the top 2, with Witherspoon as the third guy.
We have some depth if this is the case.

Forbes and Witherspoon had 50 snaps each, Durant with 25, so I guess that would make Durant the third guy for now.

Yeah, that call made me want to punch the TV. Weak-ass call...

Interesting. Durant definitely made a bigger impact though. Witherspoon didn't do much. But again, as a CB, when your name isn't called, that's a good thing most of the time.
Same for Forbes. Name never called except that one early tackle.
Nico Collins' name not called much either.
I'm guessing that was Forbes' contribution. Good cover man.
