I guess anybody can get a job with Yahoo sports..

What half of the starting secondary was out?

He used to be a Lion beat writer and Bush certainly did have an impressive debut. 

The Burnett injury hurt, but it appears to me that TT made a mistake at the safety position like he did at the backup QB position and his faith in the guys he had was misplaced. 

Is it fair to criticize tt and the coaches over the safeties?  I guess but I put it more on McMillian and Jennings learning what they're supposed to to develop.  They're given an opportunity to develop. What they do with it is mostly on them.  I think they both showed potential last year and it wasn't unreasonable to expect them to get better.

Nick Collins and Charlie Peprah?

People are saying half because of Burnett and Hayward being out... when that really is 40%.  

Yes. It's kind of an "all of the above". The players have to play, of course, but if they don't have the talent required or the proper coaching then that's an issue also.

Let's keep in mind that during all of the OTAs and offseason, Jennings and McMillian were battling for the SS spot. GB wanted to find the best partner for Burnett (playing the FS role) and being the QB of the defense

Then on Saturday/Sunday -  Burnett is sore and can't go, leaving precious little time for them to work on being the FS and QB of the defense vs a very talented offense.

That's what hurt more than anything else. The other key thing for a safeties' development is experience, so the game begins to slow down for them- neither McMillian or Jennings are there yet- but Burnett is

To say that the safeties suck or that TT and MM blew the deal is classic stupid given the circumstances, but that won't stop some fans from spewing on the topic

Perspective, context and understanding the big picture are required in order to offer a useful opinion here. Give it a try sometime

I thought they were just auditioning to be the next winner of - The Factor
since the current winner had to relinquish his\her title.

 It was a very deep draft at the position and many here and in the media expected TT to make a move but he was apparently satisfied with what he had. Time will tell if he made the right call, but the early results aren't promising.
