Battle of the trenches


SpeedOFLight

Recommended Posts

Come Sunday, the team that wins the trenches will win the game. We really need monsters inc to dominate their oline. They need constant pressure on Eli. We need to make them one dimensional and not let the establish the run. Our depleted secondary will need some help. Pressure will force Eli to throw up some gimmes.

Now on the flip side. Our oline needs to get it together. With JPP and tuck coming to town, they need to stand their ground. We can't give their line a career day or it will get ugly quick. That being said, we need some quick plays to help the oline out.

We will win tomorrow! Go panthers

If Cam is indeed pressing and, our O-line is struggling in pass pro, and our WRs are having a hard time getting open...

How about this as a novel concept, let's lean on the running game more. Wear down the d-line. Take some of the load off of Cam.

Use Cam in short yardage situation. Get him some easy throws to get his confidence going and allow him to get in a rhythm.

Just a thought.

My thoughts exactly. Not sure why we didn't stick with the Seattle game plan in the Buffalo game anyways.

Because it scored 7 points.

 

 

Yeah, but after watching Seattle's defense against the 49ers, I can't help to think they played a roll in that.

 

I thought we moved the ball pretty well in that game, all things considered. Definitely better than we did in the Bills game.

 

If only we could hit on some of those playaction passes going forward, I have no problem with that game plan.

 

To be honest, that's what we practiced all offseason, and that's who we are as a Offense.

 

We can't protect Cam long enough to hit a 5 or 7 step drop pass. The only way we're going to have the time to go down the field is via PA.

I disagree our offense has become dysfunctional and not effective in the traditional sense. Were limiting cam and not leting him do what he does best and the offense is suffering as a result. We dont have the peices in place to run the pro style offense shula would like to run. Unleash cam and let's get back to putting points on the board. I would kill to have chud calling the shots again over this white bread offense were running now.

It's hard to establish a running game when your offensive line is as bad as ours is.

We scored over 3 times as many points in the Bills game than we did in the Seahawks game.

Who gives a poo how many points we score? I just want to be in the best position to be successful.

We didn't score more than 7 because we never had good field position against a good defense, and when we did have chances to score we had drops or turnovers.

Against a normal defense with better field position and less turnovers or drops we will score more.

It would seem that the coaching staff which you so adamantly defend agreed with a sizable number of posters here in that two or three mistakes in a game don't determine the overall effectiveness of a gameplan, and it'd frankly be tough to find anyone dumb enough to believe that it does. Unless you believe that only applies to Cam of course.

 

 

A sound offensive approach isn't held back by a couple of errors. We had poor offensive showings both weeks, the difference is that the aggressive one netted us 23 points while the conservative one landed us 7.

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
