I noticed that too. Thats scheme more so than individual CB play. GW obviously wanted to keep things up front.

Maybe thats because we had our 4th and 5th CB's starting, I dunno.

Thats not really McKenzies strong suit. He's a good press CB that challenges well. Playing McKenzie 10 yards off a WR is kinda like playing Jason David in bump and run.

But it sounds kinda foolish to 2nd guess the best DC in the league and a team thats 12-0 doesn't it?

blitzing and not playing press doesnt make sense anyway.....i understand wanting to disguise the blitzes....but everybody knows we are going to blitz

blitz....delay the receivers running their routes by pressing them at the line.....then force a tough throw under pressure to a WR that is only a portion of the way through their route

that is the idea of blitzing....but without press coverage, blitzes are pretty useless
