Falconsfan567 Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Am I wrong for thinking that Vic Beasley would benefit the most from lining up in a wide 9 set? The reason I mention this is because I think about Cliff Avril. If I recall the Seahawks lined him up in a wide 9 set a lot and let him use his speed to cut around the tackle and he really benefited from that. Beasley is about the same size and speed is his number 1 game. If he was out wider it would make it harder for tackles to get their hands on him.

Iron Saint Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 How wide we talking? This wide? Or maybe this wide? If y’all want to line him up any wider y’all going to have to extend the field out into the parking lot.

JUST SOME GUY Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 I’ve actually changed my mind about this... Vic’s one advantage is his speed so by him lining up so wide it’s actually just creating more space/time for the tackle to step out to him. I feel like if he would line up a little tighter he could use his first step to get around the tackle before he can unset. the wide 9 would be more beneficial if Vic had a spin or bull rush, or anything to take advantage of the space he’s created. I like tak lining wide because he can get around but he also has great push and the running start really helps that.

Can’t stunt all that we’ll spread too wide. Pretty much limits you to speed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't have a counter move. B. He doesn't have the "dog" in him like all elite CONSISTENT pass rushers. A is teachable and you hope Quinn now running the D can teach him a couple. B is up to Beasley. ATLSlobberKnockers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give him and chance to beat the tackle before the tackle can get out of his stance. Good point. I was just trying to figure out what Dan Quinn's plan is for him to make him earn his money this year.

red falcon Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 I think chuck Smith said something about bringing him in more and also working on a double move. Other than stunts he always allows the tackle to push him outside. Not sure if its scheme or him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meaning he purposely opens himself to catch a qb running his way like he did Rodgers in 2017 when Poe ran him to his side. If he doesn’t get there initially he sits back waiting on a scramble. That’s how it always looks to me if he can’t get there. Almost like he goes into spy mode. And he’s actually caught some sacks that way.

Dude has one job which is to rush from a wide 9, he just has short ace arms and has no counter. We can line him up in the tunnel and it would make no difference.
