Sean McDermott interviewing with Bears

[JARROD]

Ahhh Fuuuuddddgggheeee

Only he didnt say fudge.

[Proudiddy]

I'll see your McDermott and raise you a LeBeau.

This is Rivera's scheme pretty much with some philly tendencies mixed into them. 

 

Im pretty sure its not the same. Ron did a 4-3 cover 2 in chicago with 4-4 looks. 3-4 and cover 2 in S.D. Now we run a 4-3 zone blitz cover 0 & cover 3, bend but dont break defense because of front 4 pressure which allows a bunch of slants and dink and dunk their way through. When you get no pressure, it allow slants and quick passes, which Kaep and Wilson did just keeping their patience

[Clicheking]

Rivera said McDermott is the one calling the plays on Sunday's. So I wouldn't be so quick to cast him aside.

[Jackofalltrades]

Please stay!

lol, zone blitz team??? One of the lowest percentage blitzing teams in the NFL over the last two seasons???? 24th in 2013 at 26%. Last season was a bit higher then that to make up for loosing Hardy.  

 

 

 

However that number would be in the low 40's, high 30's  if it was the philly system or a zone blitz scheme. 

 

 

Mcdermott is calling  the plays but this is Rivera's defense because I believe that McDermott would blitz a whole lot more then he has been.

Lol no man it may say blitz, that's not what zone blitz mean

 

Here goes a quick right up. You are right about Sean philly implementation, but definitively not what Ron ran in chicago and s.d which was cover 2

It's Ron's defense at the end of the day.

alright but knowing that then why bring fox back ? If we are not bringing him in to instal a defense ? Just for the old times sake ? If so I feel it's not a job he would take he is an old coach would probably want far more control then Rivera would be willing to give

[The Huddler]

Im actually OK with this. Our current secondary coach Wilks is who Rivera origionally wanted as DC, but when Rivera accepted the job here Wilks was still with San Diego.

Im not going to lose sleep over this and neither should you guys

Especially when Rivera is our HC.

I'd actually like it if he went to CHI

[Password is Taco]

Take shula!!

[countryboi]

No no nope nope nope No

[Pazhoosier89]

Can they take Rivera instead. He is a former Bear.

A zone blitz is dropping linemen into coverage and sending DB's / LB's on blitz. A zone blitz is still a blitz and we blitz very little, typically you'd see Philly in the top 5 in the league among blitz percentage where as Carolina is in the bottom portion of the league in blitz percentage. The Panther's use zone blitz even less then that blitz % number I posted earlier.  Mainly relying on the front 4 for pressure and running a complicated zone system behind that front four. 

 

 

It's a 4-3 zone system that's fairly complicated in the back half with a twist of philly thrown in, but it's used really seldom. Maybe 4-5 times a game out of 60-70 snaps. So if it is in fact McDermott's defense, it's almost the exact opposite of what he ran in Philly and was taught by Jim Johnson. 

 

 

As far as Rivera's system in Chicago and SD, Rivera might be the most diverse defensive coach in the NFL as he has experience in the 46, 3-4/4-3, Jim Johnson blitz defense, plus Lovie Smith's Tampa 2. (Smith is why Chicago ran a Tampa 2 though)

Gary Kubiak, Chicago's first choice just said he's staying with the Ravens.

The Bears have a young new GM who might just take a chance on a young upstart like McDermott.
