he though mahomo was going to roll the other way so he dropped back into coverage to cover. but mahomo stopped and faked him out
There was no RB popping out though. The RB stayed in to block. Also it's 4th and 17. Very unikely there would be a screen there.Looks like one of two things, and possibly both are at play: 1) he had an assignment to cover a potential screen/dump off and was looking for the relevant player in his zone of responsibility; and/or 2) he didn't see the ball and questioned whether he should be going after the RB.
RB was crossing the center. He ended up blocking, but it looked like he could leak to the other side. It looked like the defender was looking at the RB wondering if he had the ball or was leaking, but you're right about the second part - if he was thinking that it's pretty bad situational awareness.There was no RB popping out though.

"tape him back up and he'll be ready to go"

Dislocated elbow. Ouch. He’s gone for a while.
Old friend Jacolby Brissett leading the Cards against the lucky Cowboys.
TommyD's binkie Joe Milton makes 6.Brissett and Maye and Mac Jones started games this week. Garoppolo and Zappe are on active rosters.
I don't think any other team in the league has drafted five QBs that are currently active in the league.
It is amazing how much of a lay up the NFC is for the Eagles this year.It looks like the Cowboys will need a miracle to make the playoffs. Wildcard teams will be coming from the NFC West and North.
When do they stop calling them America's Team? They have done nothing for 30 years.
