Bellamy in Stoutmire out?

Before Harper was injured, he made the defensive secondary calls and did a pretty good job of it. I think his abilities, even as a rookie, helped cover up the deficencies that Bullocks has shown. Stoutmire was not able to pickup that slack and often found himself out position. I think with Bellamy we'll get some of that back and I'm hoping that his presence along with his experience will lead to better play by Bullocks. There was a sharp increase in the number of deep passes completed against our secondary after Harper went down with his injury. I don't think that was a coincidence.


The deep passes against our defense were there before Harper went down just not as many.(If i'm not mistaken the very first offensive play this season was that deep pass to Braylon Edwards). IMO Bellamy and Bullocks as our safties is the best combo (even if Harper was healthy), but thats just for now. Harper and Bullocks are gonna be a really good tandem for us, but the learning curve is obvious.
