Posted September 17 They blitzed on pretty much every down. Jim Schwartz' defensive strategy was basically the same as 13 year old me playing Madden 04. it's kind of shocking how much it worked, honestly.

It's a legit strategy if you have the personnel and know when to pull it lol NashvilleFalcon01 and Emmitt like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I always liked that nickel blitz where you send the LBs right through the A gaps. I forget what it's called but I got my share of sacks and gave up lots of plays Jerz #Quinning likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now the Falcons better have it ready coz NFL DC are gonna go after Ryan coz they can’t stop weapons: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agree... and while I credit DK for having that check in (and Matt picking it up), it sure did take a long time to get a play in to beat it.

Posted September 17 Teams definitely smell blood when it comes to dialing up pressure against us. Until we repeatedly burn them we will keep seeing it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Honestly, a better throw from Ryan and he has a 99 yard TD the first time the Eagles ran cover-0.

Until we repeatedly burn them we will keep seeing it we had some other plays we didn't quite hit on though. Once the timing gets worked out a little better, they'll hit em. Give the DB credit for doing his job too on the one Ridley almost had Jerz #Quinning, PokerSteve and falconidae like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I figured DK had that check with every play they called and when they got the look Matt audibled to it and Julio was off to the races. fuego likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 17 We still need more dump offs to RBs to slow down the blitz. Hate the guy but Sean Peyton abuses the blitz with RB dump offs jdawg4876 and Jerz #Quinning like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, not really. We had 3 drops in the end zone...We beat that blitz most of the time, just didn't quite hit the execution... falconsd56, Geneaut, falconidae and 2 others like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
