They decided they didn't need Talib. And Bradley Roby got burned last Saturday. Badly. That's going to continue to happen. Roby might be a decent defender, but Talib is a Hall of Fame CB or damn near. The defense is not as talented at the back end as last year. And Yiadom got torched.
Meanwhile, Jamal Carter, who figured to play a significant role at S just got put on season ending IR with hamstring surgery. Things are not looking good on defense right now.
You say 'they decided they didn't need Talib' but in fairness management cant pay everybody. Elway has been good at managing the Cap.
