ALLEN PARK -- There is one cornerback in the NFL who has played at least 20 percent of his team's defensive snaps, and is still allowing a perfect quarterback rating for the season.
His name is Teez Tabor.
The numbers say he couldn't be much worse, but the Detroit Lions insist he's actually getting better and that they're not mulling a position change.
"He's a very smart guy," defensive coordinator Paul Pasqualoni said Tuesday on a conference call with reporters. "Very, very intelligent player. And (we need him) to just keep getting better each week, keep working and keep improving, 'cause in this game, the margin of error at this level of football is so small for anybody, regardless of what position you play.
