It felt during the game...

Like the DBs were often really late to getting aligned to their assignments. Not just in the rotation you described, but simply the normal pre-snap alignment. And it wasn't as if the NIU receivers were hiding. I wonder if there was some communication issue or some unfamiliarity with whatever Golden was trying to do to adjust that was throwing them off.
