The majority of yesterday sacks were coverage sacks

Our secondary is solid (Cockrell looked good last night). I just wish Ron didn’t play then 10 yards off the line of scrimmage... 

In this case we were clearly running a bend but don’t break scheme. It worked. Murray got 3-6 yard completions but his YPA and even YPC were horrendous. 41 passes for 170 yards.

Noticed this as well.  Against that offense, it's probably the right call.  That offense is designed to score a lot of points quickly.  Making them drive the field works against them.

While I agree, our secondary did a good job, our pressure was good.  We didn't get many quick sacks, but we were getting good fast *pressure*, making Murray uncomfortable in the pocket.

It always works against mediocre qbs and rookie qbs. An above average qb carves them up. This was game where the scheme was perfect for the team we played against.

We give up way to many first downs with easy passes because there's no defender close. We got lucky the cardinals receivers dropped some wide open passes too

This was intentional. We wanted to keep them from attacking deep, so we gave them short routes but locked up deeper ones. This is obviously not a plan for every week.

Secondary is worlds better, Tre Boston and Reid look like a good tandem so far.

Yeah the pass rush wasn’t dominating like the stat sheet shows, a lot of times it was kyler running in circles in the pocket.

Luckily he might be the most explosive qb we face all yeah. 

We got bailed out by 3 drops that could have changed the game entirely

    • First, am I wrong? I looked back over all his posts here and I didn't see anything positive other than Shough. Second, pretty sure if you had read the post I was responding to, you would have seen CRA made poo personal as well . You just choose to address me instead of him. Not sure why?????
    • I wanted XL but I felt he should have been a 2nd rounder but I understand the logic trading up just to get the option. A safety net for your gamble.    Certainly disappointed with his receivers development but i like his down field blocking and I imagine that's what's keeping him on the field. 
    • Pretty sure it is a given Young lacks typical QB size and strength and he is here simply because his other attributes more than make up for it. My point is not to indicate anyone "settled" for him but rather to remind people that there have been plenty of big, strong QB's that have not lived up to expectations. Jamis Winston, Anthony Richardson, Trey Lance, JaMarcus Russel are a few examples. They all have the physical attributes coveted by teams and yet none have had sustained success in the NFL. And yes, there are QBs that do have both but there aren't many and some of the ones still playing were failures with their early teams. Saying Young is a bust simply based upon his size (and I do think it is as simple as that for a few guys around here) is unfair to both him and the team.
