Week 1 Chubb vs Barkley rush Charts

[ncsdawg]

I don't think anyone will really stop either Chubb or Barkley, they're going to get their yards.  For me, the secondary has to play better.  There were too many plays where they just looked lost.

Barkley isn't really the same as Chubb though. I think he may be a back where quickness on defense might be an advantage. Idk looking for something positive to say. Any hope I had for this year is diminishing. Football is much less interesting when the outcome is determined by week 2.

To be honest, I feel like we just couldn't bring his big ass down. We really have a problem wrapping up. If it wasnt a one arm tackle we completely whiffed on more than a few occasions. I'd be interested in finding out how many yards after contact he ended up with. 

I remember having this same mind frame after playing Kamara his first year. We did end up stopping him the next game but the roster was vastly different ... 

Silver lining is, it's only week 1 and everything we have issues with is correctable. We have the talent but can we put it together.

I would like to see more Blitzes for Chinn. He's a very big very athletic safety and can help contain Saquon in the run game. Our DBs are very good and if the run game is kept in check then they'll control the game

You would think that a team that spent an entire draft on defense would have a better defense...

Better yet the Panthers will actually game plan for Barkley and contain him pretty well, only to have DeVonte Booker or some dude they plucked off the practice squad 2 days ago come in and look like Walter Peyton lol 

Game Plan?

There are great athletes on defense. A Weak LB core is really hurting us. That and the fact Phil Snow is the equivalent of Rookie mode for opposing OC's

Brandon Smith, please help us

He looked good in the preseason but his draft knocks were-

NEGATIVES

— Physicality comes and goes; too often does not play downhill with enough of a temper.

 

— Below-average technique taking on blocks. Low, slow hands. Throws his shoulder when he shouldn't.

— Below-average tackler. Too often tries to hit rather than wrap up.

— Plays high. Leads to issues with settling down to tackle or change directions.

Or if we stop Barkley this is an easy win…this is the refactor concept 

Of course we haven’t considered the referee influence so we will need an algorithm to factor in “enormous bullshet”

We have a couple LB's playing 43 DE.

I would go straight at them if I were the Giants.  Not like they are gonna put on 30 lbs in a week.

Both get up to speed in a hurry.  Both can take any play to the house.  Barkley was clocked at 21.91 mph on a 78 yd TD against the Redskins in 2018.  Chubb was clocked at 21.95 mph on an 88 yd TD against Baltimore in 2019.  That puts them on par with McCaffrey's 21.95 mph on an 84 yd TD run against Jacksonville in 2020.   Which makes for pretty exciting football.  In the first 2 games you get to watch 3 of the top 5 RBs in the NFL.  I wouldn't be surprised to see any of the three in the HOF one day.

Don’t worry, Rhule has the Giants fooled with his “the NFL is a passing league” comments this week. We’re going to shock them by giving CMC 50 rushes.
