Only watched the 1st quarter, but enough to make sense of the defense through it. Casey Hayward can't play boundary corner, plain and simple. The Chargers exploited it last week with Keenan Allen, and the Broncos did it again this week with Demaryius Thomas. Put Damarious Randall on the opposite boundary corner of Shields, and let him develop. I'm not sure he's the answer, but he can't be that much worse than Hayward out there.
Second, Nate Palmer needs to man up. Yes, he's got value as a coverage LBer, which is a nice mix with Clay but he gets washed out of run plays way too much.
As for offense. Simple hit Aaron early and hard. After he got nailed and slammed he never got back in rhythm. QB are a fragile bunch .. once the head games start easy to get them off kilter.
