vel Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 The blitzes are fine. DRob isn't out there and it is showing. They are getting there but aren't finishing or the coverage is breaking a little early. Nothing serious in my opinion. The Dolphins are terrible. The Jags have better weapons than you guys gave them credit for. Mike Thomas, Cecil Shorts, Marcedes Lewis, Deji Karim. Most of us wanted Karim and Shorts so we know they are good players.

Captain Insano Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 The only problem I'm having is either we blitz no one or everybody...we can't just send one?!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'd like to see one up the middle as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nolafan33 Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 There's nothing to worry about. Bring down the QB when yall get to him and get better play from your nickel and dime corners and yall will be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if we had DRob in there, out nickel would be fine imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hustle Up Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 Just can't depend on Grimes getting INTs. He's gotta adjust his defense as the game goes on.Well the key to BVG defense is pressure up front from the front 4. When the front 4 can get pressure it creates more INT opportunities. It's an excellent theory, but like you pointed out, he's got to make in game adjustments...this is where BVG is weak at in this league.

The Falcon Jedi Knight Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 BVGs blitzes are comical. He stacks 8 in the box on 3rd down. I could play QB and see that coming.The best blitzes are disguised. The purpose of the blitz is to *suprise* the offense, but we dont surprise anybody. And therefore - we never sack the QB and we get burned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Falcon Jedi Knight Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 We blitzed tonight and Gabbert was still standing on his feet. If youre going to blitz at least put the QB on the ground. Total Fail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g-dawg Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 the problem is twofold:1) our blitzes are not disguised at all. QBs know its coming and know where the pressure is coming from.2)we blitz but we never get there fast - if you can't get to QB in 2 seconds, then don't blitz.Bottom-line, the blitzing schemes suck and the players don't get the QB on the ground. its gotta be coaching as I bet **** LeBeau could teach these boyz how to blitz in two weeks.Nah, I'm not feelin' BVG either anymore.
