Peppers Vs Clady

Recommended Posts

Denver's O-line is on pace to allow the 3rd fewest sacks in NFL history. They have only allowed 8 sacks all year, but 3 of those sacks were credited to backs and TE's.

Clady has only given up .5 a sack this year I can't wait to see what he does against arguably the best DE in the NFL.

where do u find stats like that for o-linemen?

I'm trying to hunt down the article that said it but the two teams who have allowed less sacks were two Miami Dolphin teams in the 80's.

As for who the sacks were credited too... One of our Guards dad posts on our site and tells us how our players were "graded" by the coaches and he said that our O-line has really given up 5 sacks and the backs and TE's gave up the other 3..

He's still a rookie. I'de like to see if they end up having to double team him. Hell, even when they put the running back on Pep for help we should still have some type of blitz dialed up, but never do...

I'm sure if they could see a play into the future they would always have something to do because something is about to happen.:eek:

Clady receives no TE help despite the presence of Daniel Graham on this team. He's shut down Joey Porter and John Abraham by himself...rookie or not. If I had to guess I'd say the Panthers might move Peppers over Ben Hamilton at LG. He's undersized at 6'4" 290 and he's given up 2 1/2 sacks. Chris Kuper at RG has given up zero sacks this year so I expect to see Hamilton faced up on Peppers at times. The thing is, Cutler is also very mobile and gets rid of the ball very quickly so even when protection lapses he's generally either already delivered the ball or he's bootlegging around like Plummer used to.

    • ^I want that, but Rodriguez over KC. Don't hate KC as much at that spot, but rather take a WR with the pick we gain in that trade than in the 1st. 
    • I think there is good points in this thread to what the team needs to do. 1) Ball isn't really the issue but, he needs reigned in.  Coach and he need to realize when things aren't falling from the three and learn to play other facets of the game.  He's an amazing talent and when he's on, he's on.  But he can also shoot you out of a game.  We're lucky Miami went that way but that is too many missed threes.  He still needs to bulk up if he can, but he needs to drive more.  He's pretty good at finishing usually and hopefully the fouls come (probably not though).   2) The whole team needs to be more physical.  As others have stated, we need more bulk in our bigs.  Diabate is a hurricane of energy but cannot go against the larger centers.  I love him on the team but he should be more of a match up type guy or energy off the bench.  I think he'd be insane off the bench.  However I think the biggest issue with Diabate and Kaulk is the lack of offensive game.  The lack of a jump shot or anything.  Teams figured out to just leave them on the screen and crash lanes.  There has to be some sort of threat.  We need a 4 and a 5 that can do those things and stretch out the court. 3) Bridges.  He's just undersized.  However, I feel he really threw his all into it the last few weeks when others were gassed.  He was ok not being a focal point.  I'd like to have him off the bench as well but I assume he'd be traded to make things work.  4) Miller.  Dude can light it up when on, but disappears for quarters at a time.  Also he needs to work on ball handling and passing.  He's a turnover machine at bad times.  Also hopefully over the injury so he can bulk up too.   5) Kon. Just a rookie.  Long season and back injury.  I have no doubt he'll be back stronger and focused.  Needs to work on defense and physicality like the whole team but yes, a rookie he'll get there. 6) Coby.  Has to be resigned, no question.  The bench lineup is rough without him running the point.  Team has big potential and the front office seems sharp.  They seen the hive and how crazy it got and how much the city wants this.
