Right! Which gives me the impression he just doesn't have "it" when IT comes to CB skills because that part of it crucial to the position.

William Bartee agrees with Ward

Bartee never stayed with his receiver. Opposing WRs knew that he was always the quickest route to the end zone, so much that his nickname was 24 Highway.

I feel like many of you have never played defensive back. I’d much rather he not always turn his head while staying with the receiver. The greater issue is turning one’s head and losing the receiver.

And, yes, I get that you demand both.

When the receiver's eyes get wide and he reaches for the ball, that's a great time to keep your head on a swivel and look for the ball, to either knock it down or pick the thing off.

And I never did play DB, correct.

Ward played a good game and was the victim of “a perfect pass beats great coverage” similar to his first start against Russel Wilson.

He didn’t get his head turned as much as I’d like, but he got his hands up and tried to dislodge the ball.

Stafford played the game of his life.

You don’t turn your head and find the ball in man situations

You play the wr and try to use his movements to know when the ball is coming

Stafford is a damn good QB. Ward gets beat sometimes, I have no problem with that last touchdown it was a well placed ball however he could have atleast nudged the dude a little bit.
[Reply]

In a lot of those situations, Ward couldn’t have played it a whole lot better and just got beat by a perfect throw.

Pat does that to the best corners weekly. Those corners aren’t bad, they just got beat by a perfect throw.
[Reply]

I think he did, man.he tried hard for the PBU by taking an arm away with great timing and just got beat.

He’s a young corner that still learning advanced techniques.

He’s a good study that I think will do better as he gains experience. I mean, he doesn’t even have 10 starts yet.

I think you are being very liberal when it comes to Ward people would use those excuses for Nelson too. If you have perfect coverage you should be able to make a play on the ball. Not all of those completions hes given up have been perfect passes.
[Reply]

Can that be trained or coached?
[Reply]

Yup, also his new nickname is 'The Burn Ward".
[Reply]

It’s a confidence issue in my opinion.

I thought most of CP did play that position in school.
