I know we crap on Baker for batted balls but I think you’re seeing more across the league because I’ve noticed a number of interior guys seem to be coached that if you’re not gonna win the pass rush, stop where you are and just watch and elevate.

Use to be everyone pinned their ears back 24/7

They've always been coached to do that. They're taught the from high-school.  You just don't notice when they miss.  Baker just seems to have more than anyone since he's been in the league.  I'm not sure it all has to do with his height.

They're also getting penalties for textbook QB hits so goodbye DE's actually trying to sack the QB every snap, wait til they're scrambling and gently push them over

I know the concept of getting your hands up but there are guys not going forward at all and just waiting

Honestly with this roughing the passer crap it’s probably safer to do that instead of pass rushing

I have not noticed anything that jumps out to me that would indicate a trend toward stopping the rush to get their hands up beyond normal.  Maybe some coaches have figured out tells that are qb specific or situational keys. I really do not get into it enough nor care enough to figure out Bakers tell but I'm sure there is one.

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
