What the heck is a "Shut Down Corner"? (A bit of a repeat)
This conversation makes me think about a question that was brought up last year. The question being........Which is more important -- The players or the scheme?
I\'ve always said the players are more important than the scheme. Now, for those of you that think the scheme is more important, then you should feel pretty good about our cornerbacks. A cover 2 or cover 3 scheme can ceratainly help mask some weaknesses at CB. But, it also takes away from other areas of the defense. That\'s why the players are more important than ANY scheme. With that said, we are going to have to rely on our pass rush from our front 4 and play some cover 2 or cover 3 defense. Hey, it can be very effective with the players we have. But, if that pass rush doesn\'t get there or we can\'t stop the run then we\'re screwed. And Mike McKenzie isn\'t going to change that. |
