Eric Stokes has played 112 snaps in coverage in the Packers’ last four games and he’s been targeted 11 times, allowing just five receptions for 18 yards and a touchdown. Opposing quarterbacks have an average passer rating of 62.6 when throwing at him.

This is extremely interesting to me.

He appeared to be burnt like toast several times against DET.


One question I have however, is this....when he is covering a guy (last night for example Metcalf), was their automatically help over the top.
A QB would quite naturally not target him OR it would be far easier to cover knowing there was help over the top.
