You're not thinking outside the box..

2-2-7

Football is evolving in to a safety's game.

i have more faith in our new staff then that....

LSUJeremy · 05-06-2006, 03:24 PM

In general, I do, but the DT/LB/S situation really irritates me.

patdog · 05-06-2006, 06:31 PM

People, People relaxs, I want all of you to count to ten. and just say Haz is gone, AB is gone, the whole coaching staff is gone.

You just have to hope that the new coaching staff is full of better "teachers" than the old regime. 95% of the guys in the league are athletes, but they have to be coached to do the right things and be in the right place...I will have to see it first.

Jones was a star for the Patriots, he sucked for us..

1st....What exactly is a blitch package? I know with Sully in the middle we have a "BIYATCH" package.

2nd....Tebucky Jones? Where the heck did that come from? That dude sucked a** on every team he played for....and that includes the Patriots.

I like that 4-2-5 concept. If you've got 3 hard hitting safeties, one of them can be a blitzer. It can add a more complex wrinkle against some of our pass happy opponents for the 2006 season. Also, safeties tend to be quicker to the ball than LBs, so since none of our LBs tackle well on the edge, having solid backup there will be essential.

Never have to many safities that can tackle. Makes the special teams better. Besides we know we are weak at CB so a shuffle may happen. As for LB I am sick of saying it, we really have no idea what we got. This coaching staff is trying to see what haz left behind, He left a group that has played out position ever sense haz took over, Haz slowly broke down OL, DL, and LB positions on this team each year. We have a boat load of WLB and special teamers in the group. Colby in the middle is key. I think he can do it. with less open field to cover and safety help should be a good fit.
