He's a linebacker (a Strongside LB at that). Cut him a little slack on being in coverage on a fast WR like Galloway to begin with. Heck it's remarkable he was even close. He's actually been very good in coverage I thought, suprisingly so. He's the only one who actually seems to make interceptions, not just let the ball bounce off both hands.

A strongside LB is the LB that is usually the guy you want to be in coverage. One of Fujita's strength's is his coverage ability and range. Where he is weak is in the downhill running game. Many times he tries to make a play and loses gap responsibility. He is still leagues better than Sedrick Hodge could even dream about being and is better than the Lb's we have had over the last few years.
