CB Marshon Lattimore (2017 NFL Def ROY, 3x Pro Bowl, New Orleans Saints)

I care about them, in that I hate them deeply and hope they all fail.

Btw, it was a joke about the fact that you posted Marshon is the #1 CB on the Saints. He's so obviously their #1 CB that it would be like specifying Brady is the Pats' top QB or Antonio Brown is the Steelers' #1 WR


Oh no I got it....

Marshon Lattimore has rough day covering Mike Evans

Bucs receiver Mike Evans makes a catch against Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore.

NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) - The Saints were the heavy favorites on paper, and a big reason why was cornerback Marshon Lattimore.

Flash back to a year ago. He had one of the league's most talented receivers, Tampa Bay's Mike Evans, visibly frustrated and off his game. But today was a great reminder of how the NFL works.

"Nothing about last year carries over to this year," says head coach Sean Payton. "I've said it a million times."

That was certainly the case for Evans, who caught all seven targets from Ryan Fitzpatrick for 147 yards and a touchdown. Four of those receptions came with Lattimore in man coverage.

"He had some plays," says Lattimore. "He won the 50-50 balls. It is what it is. It's the NFL. Everybody's going to have their day."

The 50-yard touchdown is the one that stings the most. And while it's certainly not easy having the shut down corner label and the responsibility of man coverage without much help, Lattimore knows those are the plays that he can't let happen.

"I've just got to be there," says the 2017 Pro Bowl corner. "I'm out on an island by myself. No help. No nothing."

Since 2017, the former Ohio State corner has allowed a passer rating of just 68.8 on throws into his primary coverage – fifth among cornerbacks with at least 100 targets in that span.
