No, Acker played well yesterday. The big play he allowed was extremely difficult to stop.

the other one, the catch right at the sideline was a non-defendable throw, almost the same throw was caught by Torrey later in the game. In both cases, the coverage was very good imho.

With the exception of the Steelers game, Acker has played very well. There are far more important things that need to be fixed. For the time being Acker isn't one of them.

The back shoulder sideline play. The other one where he slipped was actually a zone play. Aikman was wrong saying it was man ad Acker opened his hips and let Jones get inside of him.
We have some nice young corners.

Acker played better yesterday ....I was calling for him to be benched, but he held his own , Ward was solid as our 3rd CB and helped keep the Packers from getting big chunk plays , but I agree Reaser needs to play too at some point

Acker, Brock and Ward got most of the snaps according to the released snap count.
Yesterday there were far far less gaps in the coverage because guys were passing off receivers so much better. Everyone on defense looked more like they were on the same page, you saw communication going on from the DL to the LB's to the secondary, it looked far more crisp and what a professional defense is supposed to look like.

Ward was a bright spot for an otherwise dismal performance from our team and coaching staff

The corners did all right yesterday. Not so many brain farts as in previous weeks.

Scheme seems to be more of a problem than talent level. We can throw in lack of a pass rush by only sending 4.

Acker is playing fine, no need for a move.
