Question On Man Coverage (The Last Time)


X-Man21

Recommended Posts

I was looking at Highlights of the Hakeem Nicks in the 24-2 dismantle against Atlanta and Troy Aikman makes a comment on how the corner "should have been in man coverage" Prior to that I watched highlights on turnovers caused by the Falcons and so far Every highlight I have seen they play so far back in zone, its almost silly to me. does anybody remember a year that the Falcons were actually solid in Man Coverage in the 2000s?

I think man and press is confused a LOT. We don't want our CB's in man necessarily. I want them in press.
i want a combination of both... If we get grimey back then you can free it up and let the player have the freedom to press or play off... I think thats exactly wat we might see with nolan since he plays to our players strength....

My point is If guys on the forum are talkin about picking up players like Rogers and finnegin then I'm hoping Nolan adds more press/man coverage so it can be mixed up. This secondary has been vey dry over the years as far as coverage

Nolan is known for using press coverage/disrupting the timing of routes at the LOS while blitzing multiple defenders from inconventional places. I think we'll see some great stuff this year.

Different, and it might come on slowly, but great all the same.
