UW junior cornerback Jabbar Muhammad — who finished with four tackles in the win — said there was “a schematic shift, for sure. [Co-defensive coordinator Chuck] Morrell came in and made some great adjustments.
“We kind of went back to the basics, if I’m being honest with you. We didn’t abort the game plan, but we went back to the basics and what we were comfortable with. We were playing more sticky in the back end, tackling better and all types of stuff.”
Seems as though the coaching staff has been overcomplicating shit rather than putting their players in a position to react vs overthink. Not surprising.
In line with this I hate how often Bruener or whoever is making the calls is always flipping out half a second before the ball is snapped. Seems like d line is often late getting set in stance and DBs are always running around even as the ball is snapped. How can you play at full speed when your not in position with your eyes on your assignment when the play starts?
From what I could tell we were putting 8 or 9 in the box way too much leaving whoever is opposite Mohammed to tackle 1 on 1. Spoiler alert. They can't.
In the second half I thought we played more honest. I was saying we were leaving Jackson alone in the first half which is a heart attack every time the wr catches a pass.
