the three man rush...

Recommended Posts

just to give you a little info on those 3 man rushes that worked so well against the vikings...

they were a 3-2-6 formation. not sure how many of you noticed it but we used the same lineup for all of those formations.

DL: peppers-brayton-brown

LB: beason-anderson (anderson kept getting switched from the left to the right side all night...no real consistency).

CBs: gamble-marshall (slot)- munnerlynn

Ss: Godfrey-Wesley-Harris

they ran this 11 times (out of 49 defensive plays). vikings only converted on one of those plays. the rest resulted in 3 and outs, a fumble, or an INT. there were 2 sacks that came from these plays as well (peppers and wesley).

1st Qtr:

3-10-MIN 37 (8:03) (Shotgun) PENALTY on MIN-74-B.McKinnie, False Start, 5 yards, enforced at MIN 37 - No Play.

3-15-MIN 32 (7:38) (Shotgun) 4-B.Favre pass short left to 28-A.Peterson to MIN 37 for 5 yards (41-C.Munnerlyn).

result: vikings punt

3-6-CAR 21 (4:03) (Shotgun) 4-B.Favre pass incomplete short middle to 81-V.Shiancoe (90-J.Peppers).

result:vikings FG

3rd Qtr:

3-5-MIN 46 (14:12) (Shotgun) 4-B.Favre pass incomplete deep right to 81-V.Shiancoe (21-D.Wesley).

result: vikings punt

3-7-MIN 48 (10:07) (Shotgun) 4-B.Favre sacked at MIN 43 for -5 yards (21-D.Wesley).

result: vikings punt

2-18-MIN 40 (6:07) 4-B.Favre pass short right to 18-S.Rice to CAR 37 for 23 yards (30-C.Godfrey). FUMBLES (30-C.Godfrey), RECOVERED by CAR-43-C.Harris at CAR 37. 43-C.Harris to CAR 37 for no gain (12-P.Harvin).

result: vikings fumble, panthers recover

3-7-MIN 14 (2:56) (Shotgun) 4-B.Favre sacked at MIN 8 for -6 yards (90-J.Peppers).

result: vikings punt

4th Qtr:

3-12-MIN 31 (12:36) (Shotgun) 4-B.Favre pass incomplete deep middle to 81-V.Shiancoe [91-E.Brown].

result: vikings punt

3-5-MIN 35 (8:24) (Shotgun) 4-B.Favre pass incomplete short right to 12-P.Harvin.

result: vikings punt

1-10-MIN 21 (3:02) (Shotgun) 4-B.Favre pass short left to 28-A.Peterson to CAR 16 for 63 yards (41-C.Munnerlyn).

Minus the thinned out D-Line Ron Meeks has brought it this year.

Fox and his confidence in Jake screwed this team months ago.

Agreed our defense has played well for most of the year, and I imagine that next year will be even better for that unit.

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
