Earl is a great film guy, his recognition and reactions are why our defense clicks and why teams rarely challenge us deep, or why they didn't prior to his injury. Terrell isn't slow, but he doesn't have that recognition and experience or recovery speed.
Lets look at what we have on the table going forward for teams.
Stafford, strong arm and they like to throw deep and under routes.
Ryan multiple receivers that are threats, deep ball team and a lot of mid routes.
Rogers , we don't need to know anything else, they live by the deep ball.
The only team I think we have an edge on in the passing game is Dallas, Prescott has Moxie but I think can be challenged and baited to throw a bad pass, however he is also an ignition switch and if he gets rolling and like Wilson uses his legs we could have some issues.
Giants, again they live or die with Manning to Beckham, our recognition and ability to stay with fast and quick receivers in will be telling.
All and all, if I am a DC, I put quick up against Shead, I put fast up against Sherman, make Sherman read pass and run and run him down field a lot, make Terrell read and react, Shead will need to stay with quick or you get over the top there as well, again make Terrell read and react. With the rest of the offense you make Terrell have to make a lot of decisions, playoff time you only need one or two big hits down field to break a game open.
This is my biggest concern, getting Terrell up to speed on film and recognition of the teams were playing, all the QB less Prescott are savvy Vets that exploit a weakness when they find it, we can't afford to cover up for Terrell and try to give him help.
