Texans: Derek Stingley Jr.

Sting has six interceptions since the beginning of last season. I don't recall him gambling much on any of them.

Have you been paying attention? He doesn’t gamble on all the plays, just the ones the QB doesn’t throw his way.

I guess it's some kind of judgment stuff because I'm not seeing much of the gambling that Mr TeX is claiming is there.

There was the double move in the Colts game that Richardson overthrew. Hey Anthony, not every pass has to be 100 mph.

There’s also the double move he bit on in the AZ game that he wound up recovering and was able to make a play on. That happened to him several times in that game last year.

Stingley has bit on coverage, played the wrong leverage, and missed tackles this season. And he's still the CB I would take over anyone else to go up against Justin Jefferson this Sunday.
 
I see him as the weak link at this point in time as he seems to have an issiue with awareness. Yes, I seem unhappy however he is going to become a very good corner.
 
There's just simply players on this roster I see as elite and expect elite play from. The standards are higher and I will nitpick them.

It does not mean I don't like them in fact it means I like them A LOT to where I'm willing to dive into their play snap by snap.

You think Derek Stingley is the weak link on defense over the defensive tackles and linebackers and safeties and the cornerback opposite him?

He's a top 5 CB. Give me some more of those weak links. He had a bad game for him last game and it still would be a better than avg game for most CB's. BTW, Moore is a very good WR and makes a lot of CB's miss tackles.

Y'all know what I think of PFF, but if they have a guy ranked in their top 5 he's doing a good job.

Yeah and I don't think that was a risky gamble on Stingley. I just think he got beat.

It was totally a poor risk. He should have been playing over the top of the receiver. If Richardson had thrown underneath, the pass could have misfired and gone to Stingley, anyway. It was a game of poor choices by the secondary, and the Texans survived.

Yep, the Bears weren’t able to protect Williams long enough to take deep shots. I hope the communication issues on the back end have been fixed.

He was big time late in that game with the 4th down pass break up in the end zone vs Brian Thomas who had been cooking Lassiter. I noticed late Meco started letting him travel with Thomas in critical 3rd downs and he didn’t disappoint. and then he had the other pass break up he nearly intercepted on the drive Jax had before we scored the last TD.

That’s what he’s here for… must stop situations stick Stingley on their best target.

Agreed, early on they always try to keep him to 1 side. but as Kirk and Thomas started to get off against Pitre and Lassiter, they started matching Sting up a little bit more with those guys.... or at the very least putting him in the vicinity from a zone perspective with whomever was the hot guy at the time for the Jags.

Probably learned something from the Minnesota game when Justin Jefferson went off. They could have had Stingley in him more.
 
I’d like to see Ryans get both Stingley and Lassiter up on the line to challenge receivers from the get-go versus having them play what looks like almost 10 yards off the ball.
