They're running the same defense, they just aren't getting pressure so the QB has time to see those people flash open that flashed open last year too. It's often the same spot. Down the seam on the right side of the field where the safety is supposed to be hovering and making plays. Williams isn't a single high safety in my opinion. He's not consistent at it at least. We should try some Cover 2 and 2-Man under. Cover 6 as well. 6 is Cover 2 on one side and Cover 3 on the other. Crawley should almost always be the Cover 2 side because he's a liability in deep coverage. He holds for no reason.

Does the fact that Fitz released the ball in under 2 seconds most of the time throw a monkey wrench into that plan?

Granted I did not watch the entire game, but when I was watching he had all day and all night, some vacation time, some personal days, and even a few sick days to casually look around and toss the ball.

You saw the isolated plays where that occurred. It was clear their initial game plan was to get the ball out quickly and one play struck gold and after that it was downhill.

Most definitely. If he’s getting the ball off that fast you have to press and throw off that timing. Disguise coverages. It’s a bad situation though because Evans scored a TD on a go by beating the press of Lattimore. Crawley was getting burned by Jackson so I don’t trust him to press either. That’s why they should have ran 2-Man under so the safeties would be over the top on both sides in case somebody lost at the line. You let Robinson handle Humphries and you put Davis on the TE. If the running back stays in to block the extra linebacker needs to help on the TE or spy the QB.

It looks to me like they came into the game with the perfect plan that clicked. I doubt they can pull that off again and also doubt it would work again against our defense. At least it would surprise me.

Another question, Rez. How can a team efficiently make the adjustments during the game to adjust to that offensive approach? How effective can the adjustments be?

Most times coaches try to stick to what they worked on throughout the week. Allen probably said we need to get more pressure, press, and be more disciplined. He didn’t make any major adjustments, and if he would have I believe they could have at least slowed that offense down and stopped giving up big plays.
