Base 4-3 defense

How come we are not playing more base 4-3 defense where the strength of the defense is the LB corp.  I member during off-season Shaq having a nice camp breaking pass plays , creating turnovers, I would rather have Shaq in coverage than the rookie CBs

Well, we played base 4-3 on 72 of 73 snaps yesterday. Shaq was in for all but one play and was our defacto nickel CB yesterday. It didn't go great btw.

I couldn't watch the game on tv due broadcasting coverage ,had to use shitty streaming website where I got to see 1 play every 10 mins.

Yeah the famed Buffalo Nickel which was suppose to be the next great defense ala Rob Ryan's 13 safety packages got shredded yesterday. The long Brandin Cooks play that cost us the game ultimately happened because Shaq got sucked into Brees.

 

If only we had the means to put CBs on the field.

Saftey probably fuged up but what was even more stupid was putting Sanchez on a TE for the touchdown it should have been the other way around.

In zone defense Sanchez is responsible for an area right? So he is responsible for whoever is running a route in it. Hes not put on any particular player ir it would be man, no?

    • I will allow that sometimes the players sound smarter than I expected, vocabulary seems broad and seems like they know what the words mean when they use them. A lot of them.  Some others are perpetuating the cliche.    But our organizational IQ? Bryce Young is our starting QB and we have no one to challenge him. Low end of the bell curve. 
    • Though question the validity of this chart, it does remind me of concerns I have with our offense. I’m unsure whether it’s Canales doesn’t trust Bryce to execute his gameplan or if the route concepts and scheme is vanilla and unimaginative by design.  When watching other games, the receivers seem like they get more separation and aren’t as clustered together as ours. The Panthers WR, TE and RBs, more often than not, seem very close to each other and almost like their feet are stuck in a lower gear in and out of routes/off the LOS. Often times, unclear of their positioning when the first read isn’t there and where they should be positioned within the options of that particular route concept (e.g. Bryce is under duress and the play breaks down….where do you go? Pre-snap we thought it was man, it’s disguised well as zone). It’s almost like if the coaches don’t tell them, the players aren’t intelligent enough to figure this out on their own. Or are the players simply doing as told by the coaches in film study, practice and in-game, which means the coaching is inept. 
    • I think Young has totally killed the idea of drafting undersized QB's and hoping it works. Especially at such a high pick and putting all your cards on the table. He won't last in this league.
