    Rams Film Room: What's gone wrong with Marcus Peters, PFF's 106th-ranked CB?

    This is a good article. I’d paste it here, but lots of videos. Worth a look

    I think if any half way decent corner plays in place of Peters the last two games…. we win them easily. He is crippling the defense

    part of it is peters just being peters. you take the good with the bad.

    part of it is just him being injured.

    but also i wonder if he might be trying too hard.

    i listened to some analyst talking about how far the denver secondary has fallen after talib left. his leadership on the field could be a big difference as well.

    From the 10/11 presser. Wade on Peters.

    (On Peters mentioning that his eyes were on of place during the Seahawks game, if that was a one-time thing and if eye training is really important for defensive backs)

    “Well, he’s one of those guys that’s special in that he sees so many things and he can diagnose routes and those kind of things. You don’t want to take that away from him, but you also don’t want him peeking too much in certain situations, that’s why I say that’s partly me. We’ve got to get him, system-wise, in to how we want things done, especially with – it’s not how he moves and so forth. He’s got great movement skill and ball skill and all those things. So, I think it’s just working out how we want to play it and him fitting into the way we want it done. But, he’s like a great quarterback that can scramble, if you take the scrambling away from them they’re not as good. The same thing with him, if you take what sees away from him – now you’ve got to limit it a little bit more and that’s what we haven’t done well enough with him. He’s getting there and he’s a great competitor. He’s like any great corner, the next play he’s going to play as good as he can play. He doesn’t get his head down. He keeps fighting and that’s what happens in the fourth quarter. If bad things happen for really good players, they keep playing.”
