Really ? So, what you are saying is that BB loves seeing Ellis give up 3rd and 8's on sideline outs pretty consistently and enjoys seeing offenses move down the field at will against our defense and move the chains? This is by design? Let's let Ellis hang back, we'll bend, give them those automatic 1st downs on Ellis, but we'll stiffen up in side the redzone, this is what BB wants from his corners ?
If it was Ellis Hobbs who was the problem, then the Patriots would have replaced Ellis Hobbs. Instead, they've drafted a free safety (Meriweather) with above average speed and range, and signed Adalius Thomas, an LB who likewise has above average speed and range. This tells me that BB has not identified Ellis Hobbs as a source of any coverage problems, but the safety and LB positions, deeming them as the ones who are not covering enough ground.
