Probably our coaches learning a lesson from darnold last season why killed us by extending the play.Tequilla said:It's an interesting idea when you think about it ... contain the QB in the pocket and when he steps up you squeeze him in and send a MLB up to support ... in the process you force the QB to throw in a semi-congested pocket and allows our DBs confidence to play actual routes versus freelanced situations
The downside is that it seems to be a bad natural fit for benning's style. I don't see why we've never tried him as a Michael Bennett inside type on. 3rd downs. -
On situations where one or more front 4 players don't rush, my guess is always been they're assigned to screen/scramble/draw.dhdawg said:go to 36:15

there is definitely something to what teq says about our pass rush philosophy. Gaines has a free rush to the QB and just stops. Similarly watch how wide an angle Jaylen takes.
Given this philosophy you can see why we? did so well against hurts. -
Makes more sense now. I read something that alluded to this from the Atlanta Falcons preseason talk about Elijah Qualls.dhdawg said:go to 36:15

Yeah I remember seeing that play, I think Greg just thought that was a screen since no one blocked him. If it's too easy it is usually a screen, in that case it was just a blown assignment by the OL and Gaines got confused.dhdawg said:go to 36:15

Part of being elite is doing things differently than everybody else and finding competitive advantages ...
We all know that part of destroying a passing attack is in making the QB uncomfortable ...
We all have largely been brought up with the idea that the best way to do that is through pressuring the QB ...
We have also seen instances throughout the history of football where there have been unique ways employed to disrupt ... the Bills/Giants Super Bowl (SB25) is a famous example where the Giants continuously rushed 2 flooding passing lanes ...
In today's modern football defenses are faced with QBs that are multi talented that can beat you with their arms and feet ... take the Rich Rod special play where they run option action with the QB/RB and still have a WR available as a receiving option ... or take the QB that breaks containment and creates big plays with either his feet/arm ...
It's not that I think that we are against blitzing or pushing up the field ... but I think we are definitely strategic about it ... if we blitz up the middle the edges are containing the escape route ...
It's interesting to me to think about the concept ... on one hand it goes against everything we've ever thought ... on the other the implications are super interesting -
That's all well and good, but we don't need Ryan Bowman doing that.Tequilla said:Part of being elite is doing things differently than everybody else and finding competitive advantages ...

You are missing something key with Bowman. We need him vs Auburn next year. He played at IMG probably on the bottom of the roster but he was there. Now all the kids that beat him go to auburn. So he got that revenge factor going on. No one else on the team has that kind if motivation.

This is brilliant, hadn't thought of it that way.Bread said:You are missing something key with Bowman. We need him vs Auburn next year.

This isn't about Bowman ... fixating on Bowman is getting lost in the details and not seeing the bigger pictureCokeGreaterThanPepsi said:
