We need to get healthy in the Secondary.  Taaffe covers up a lot of the mistakes today.   But I was never a fan of the Akina hire and nothing I've seen this season makes me think I was wrong.

Taaffe rectifies a lot of those mistakes.  He's a bit of a <redacted> but he knows where to put his guys on the field.  That wide open receiver on the right sideline would have never happened with Taaffe playing.

Filsaime has been late breaking off his initial read to go help the cb over the top several times since Taafe's injury. The db's play dumb, soft coverage that qb's have absolutely abused in the last three games

Secondary is fine. We have been torched two games in a row without Taafe. But Littleton and McDonald are studs, and we will be just fine. Hard to explain Stowers 67-yarder other than Guilbeau is awful and it wouldn’t have happened with Taaffe on the field. I’m still more worried about our OL. If PK is fine with Akina, who has forgotten more good DB play than we will ever know, I’m fine with it.

McDonald also didn’t play most of day. He’s been one of our best this year.

 

The soft ass coverage, bend don’t break shit needs to stop when we’re up 17.

The problem is that outside of Taaffe, our safeties are not exactly rocket scientists. They are quick and athletic but just aren’t processing fast enough.

Been saying this since his missed block in seccg

I'm sure he's a good kid I just don't think he's very bright.

His PI on Kentucky's last drive in that game was the dumbest thing I've seen anyone on this team do all season.

Taffee being out sucked but I thought McDonald was able to hold the secondary together the best he could. Once he went down the defense had 3 easy targets to pick on. Williams just isn’t the same post injury, Filsaime is very meh, and Guilbeau is so obviously being picked on it hurts to watch.

McDonald is probably the most athletic guy in the defense outside of Ant and Simmons. Hes also extremely smart. The problem with Taaffe out, Filsamie is in, and it’s been a problem. He and Guilbeau were bad today. 

Our secondary will be much improved against UGA, and it’ll be good next year.

Yeah so what happens next year when he’s gone? We can’t keep saying but Taaffee.

Maybe better coaching can help with that
