Karst41 Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Sunday we pretty much got trounced by Cam Newton and his MV7 style of play.This week we will face a smaller and faster version ofCam Newton in RG3.When Vick was here, the one division rival that had the best rate of success neturalizing this type of threatwas Monte Kiffen, DC of the TB Bucs who used theQuarterback Spy.Granted that RG3 is going to get some yards on us and probably a score.The idea here is to contain him as much as possible orin order to keep the damage to a minimum roar.Couple this with Mike (Rat Boy) Shanahan we are likely looking at a high probability of a loss this weekend.(Rat Boy is one of the best game planners in the NFL)and By Gawd he will be bringing it and a bag of chips.I hate bringing this Topic up because his staff will be seeking any bitof info they can including skimming this forum.So Who is our QB Spy or are we just SOL?

Dharma Initiative Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Bob hasn't seen a defense like ours yet. He had good games against the Saints and Buccs....who aren't exactly stout defenses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freebird310 Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Ah, BS, I agree RG is the real deal, but he no better than either Manning, Rivers, or even Cam at this point, he may bend us over on a couple plays, but he wont break us, and this is a defense Ryan will carve into pieces...

Tuggle'2 Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 (edited) Sppon , Moore , or Robinson , I want someone who can lay the wood if trys to break a run. Id like to make him regret it or at least think twice after getting rocked once or twice. Edited October 3, 2012 by Tuggle2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sun Tzu 7 Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Ok so when Vick played Tampa they were one of the fastest defenses in the league and let's be honest, they weren't worried about Vick beating them with his arm.RG3 could pose a problem because he looks like he's a better passer than Vick was here... And I like our D but let's not get crazy comparing it to Kiffin's Tampa Bay D just yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karst41 Posted October 3, 2012 Author Share Posted October 3, 2012 I was not trying to elude to a Tapa 2 defense, just the QB Spy aspect of it.Now the thought of Dunta laying the wood to RG3 is quite nice indeed.I can hear Stoney and Craig in their two part harmony now.

MattM12 Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 not uncommon to rotate the spy from multiple positons in the Front 7 and nickel, including the DT spot if you have an athlete there. Could see some interesting looks with 3 DEs on the field on passing downs for speed. If i'm not mistaken that may have already been a look we've shown this year. May have been with Kroy in the amoeba D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kane#7 Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Quite honestly we don't have anyone on our team that can Spy RG3 straight up... we can contain his running but not stop it.We also should not use the same guy each time, switch it between Moore, Spoon and Nic...Decoud, Samuel and Robinson are too important in coverage.

SPITFIRE Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Having a spy requires a front 4 that can get pressure to flush the qb into the spy. no pressure means that he can stand in pocket wait for coverage to break down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metatron360 Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 It's gonna be heavy blitz to one side with a role out player covering the inside gap on a delayed blitz. That's what I would do to confuse and force throws as we haven't used that type of coverage yet. We may save that for ykw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newgafatboy Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Jdawg, I'm with you, he was the second person to pop into my mind. either Spoon or Owens spying on him every play. why Owens, he's the only falcon with spped to match Bobby. its not their job to sack him , but to cover him on draws, bootlegs, and roll out. no other job except go hit him when he leaves the pocket.

Tandy Gossett Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 If we spy him hopefully we can put Dunta or Franks on him. After Dunta hits him he will think twice about running it, and Franks has the speed to contain him. We don't use 3 LBs and play mostly Nickel anyways so the spy thing may be in the gameplan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the problem with Owens being a spy and Shannahan would exploit that matchup as soon as he saw it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newgafatboy Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 (edited) in the three receiver set Spoon is the spy. that's why i said "either" :, maybe even Bierman, but point is every play there needs to be one guy assigned to spy RG3that said its easier in a zone defense than playing man up Edited October 3, 2012 by newgafatboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da_Truth Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 I know we're all on the outside looking in on our Falcons, but for the life of me I couldn't figure out why we had such a problem knocking Cam and the RB on their azzes Sunday. Whenever they ran the option one of our defenders take the RB and the other always takes Cam and blow them both up--that takes care of whoever keeps the ball. We seemed to be a state of disarray Sunday and did not know how to defend what they were doing. Like some sports writer said we seem set to defend the pass but our run defense is seriously lacking. Look like we played way too much zone this past week as well. Where was the defensive aggression that we had in the previous three games? I'm sure between Nolan and Smitty this will get fixed, because we play another dangerous, mobile QB this coming Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
