Interesting observation in Gregg Williams Presser

SaintFanInATLHELL · 12-18-2009, 10:43 AM

Are you happy with your pass rush?

"Right now, we are a work on progress. We are very opportunistic. We've improved the pass rush a lot. We're going to have to be able to do some things in manufacturing pressure, and to be honest with you, I've put those guys in an awful lot of three-man rush. We've had the three-man rush a lot around here so that I can help the guys in coverage that are having to play all of a sudden coming off the street that really haven't had a training camp. You really can't put the emphasis on both areas, so when I've had to put the emphasis in the coverage element, especially these last three weeks really, we probably led the National Football League in three-man rush the last three weeks."

I read that too, but that's not going to work against Romo. He mucks it up when he is under pressure. When he isn't under pressure he kills secondaries. Like him or not that's a fact.

I still say JAM the WRs at the line. Throw them off thier rythym & it will throw ROmo off of his!!

Exactly what I was wondering- I was thinking that we have had to scale back our aggressiveness due to the injuries. Yep sounds about right, and I'll tell you- it really shows how much of a team game this is

Not worried in the least about Williams or our D.

He's is going to do what he needs to do and make adjustments. Thats what its all about. Something we have haven't had year over the years. Its made all the difference in the world. Seriously all he has to do is create 2-3 turn overs a game and its a blow out. We don't have the D yet to shut people down yet it'll take a couple of years to get the people we need in the mean time, hince the term "opportunistic", get a couple of turn overs and Payton sticks the fork in it.

excellent point, but I am hoping we are healthy for the payoffs, makes a huge difference. We can shut some people down when we are healthy!!

Good point Euph. Payton is to offensive what Williams is to defense. They help each other help this team win.

But when we aren't sending 3 or 4 we are sending the farm

Good point. Unfortunately it hasn't worked. I've seen too much of Randall Gay trying to get by a 320 OT, and that really hasn't been working out

The Saints don't have three DL players that can get a pass rush in a rush 3 only scheme. One on one Smith, Ellis, Hargrove, and McCray can get some pressure. One on one with help will shut them down. Let McKenzie and Jenkins use their size, man up, bring the pressure and let the chips fall where they may. When QB's Campbell and Redman throw for over 300 on you, it's time to go to Plan B. WHO DAT!
