He never has a clue about anything. I can't stand to hear him on TV.

Re: Base D vs Blitzing D

Collingsworthless, phill Simms and troy aikman are each terrible in their own way

Monday night football crew are easily my favourite

I do find it humorous that we now have 2 dozen color commentators that are the worst in the business.

Collinsworth is the best out there, or at least as good as Aikman. I like Gannon a lot too.

Gruden is no slouch, I think he's great on MNF

I get annoyed at his constant player worship. Not every player is great and not every play is great.

He brings very little insight and a whole lot of cheerleading for both sides.

Yeah that's definitely true, I think he's trying to add to the excitement for the fans watching by going into that much detail

I do think he is a very technically smart guy though, he explains concepts and schemes well for people that aren't massively clued up.

one way to get pressure is to have amazing coverage. Its a two way street where all parts need to click for the whole to be good.

When it comes to the 3-step passing game, the slants, quick outs and underneath routes i.e. pressure are and will be virtually non-existent, especially when the QB works out of the shot gun. There just won't be enough time between the ball is snapped and when it leaves the QBs hand to get there. The only way you can get a sack in that part of the game is if the defence can manage to blanket all the WRs and forcing the QB to hold on to the ball for too long.

W.T. Sherman is my favorite General. After all he did order Atlanta to be burned to the ground.

Re: Base D vs Blitzing D

Whatever results in an effective pass rush, go with that. Otherwise, it just doesn't matter.

Re: Base D vs Blitzing D

if we run that cover 2 like we did against the pack Cam will eat us up running.

it has to be week to week without a doubt.

this week is gap discipline speed rusher pushed out to wide will kill us. as will getting blocked into a bunch. gotta hold our ground and collapse the pocket the old fashion way. bull rushing.

that IMO will be the key. hem in cam and crush him.

We could spy him using a 3 S set to see if that worked, Vaccarro is big enough to bring him down and an occasional delayed blitz will make him a little skiddish of running so quick but I do think the bull rush is the best. I look for Lofton and V have a big game.
