Blitzing

As much as the checkdowns mattered, we constantly brought people. Even when we were up 35-10, we were still blitzing safeties. I think all the changes overall may have been brought on by Rivera, rather than each coordinator individually. Maybe if we consistently do these things from now on, we will win some games consistently. who cares about winning close games when you can just blow out your opponent.

Keep in mind it was a tactic utilized by the coaches for this specific game. It may not work against another opponent with quick drops and timing patterns.

It was repeated over and over how good Cassel is when he hits his 5 and 7 step drops. The blitz kept him from doing that for the most part.

i think it could work in about every game. it all depends on how infrequently we do it and how well we disguise it.

 

keep LBs and DBs on the line but keep on dropping them back in coverage most the time while most the pressure is brought from the front four and at random times blitz them from the same formations.

I can see it working as long as our DB's can hold their own AND the rush gets to the QB. If we blitz and don't get there our poor corners will be calling the coroners.

Let's see what the defense can do against an offense that gets the ball out quick and neutralizes the front four and/or blitzes. The secondary has held up as well as we could hope for so far but we've yet to face a QB like a Brees or Brady.

This is exactly what I want to see.

i don't think they'd need to hold their own too much if we don't do it too often.

 

if we are unpredictable with the blitzes like we were yesterday, 9 times out of 10 it's going to be either a sack, an INT, or some kind of blown play.

 

if we show our hand and/or can't get back to the QB in blitzes like that i think our secondary could be exploited, but done rightly (which it seems we know how to do) i think that it could work pretty consistently.

 

the main thing, tho, is just making sure that our front four can always bring pressure on the QB because that just opens things up for that quite a bit.

Saw a poor mans version of it already....lost against a rookie QB doing it

Why didn't we blitz against the Cards...

 

Why didn't we blitz against the Bills

 

A rookie QB

 

That made no sense and infuriated me. You look back at these losses aside from Seattle and have to ask what was the coaches doing after half-time. Absolutely no adjustments

Yeah, it seems like whatever gameplan we derive going into the game, its the same gameplan we stick with. We will never be a great team if our coaching staff aren't willing to or are unable to adjust the gameplan.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      And once again I showed you it’s been pretty even. We spent 2nd and 3rd rounders this past draft on edge rushers. No one’s going to sit here and do the math on a draft value chart etc. the only reason I even entertained this was because you said we’ve spent nothing on defense when that simply isn’t true. It also didn’t help we traded our ONLY WR worth a damn to trade up for Bryce soo… And this is kind of the issue with the anti Bryce crowd. This crowd tends to blame him for the trade up. I was team Stroud. Had the panthers not taken Young the only other QB they were going to take was Richardson. So your issue should be with Tepper, Morgan, Fitterer not Bryce.  Bryce is who he is and it was pretty obvious who he was during the draft process. Bryce is slowly developing into that guy most thought he’d be. Give him a WR like Jamo and this offense as a whole would improve greatly.  Anyone thinking he was the next Pat Mahomes or Josh Allen is clearly slow. Bryce was always going to need pieces around him much like EVERY other QB Burrow has Chase and Higgins and they’ve done nothing. After losing in AFC Championship in 2022, Burrow is 17-15. QB’s need a team around them It’s why a Jalen Hurts led Eagles team dismantled a Pat Mahomes led KC team in the SB Imo the QB’s doing the most with the least up until this year have been Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson  This year it’s Drake Maye and Josh Allen  Outside of the 3-5 elite type QB’s I’m not really sure what people expect here. Is Bryce ever going to be in that elite category? Nope. Should we punt on Bryce and keep swinging? I don’t think so. Should we keep swinging while hanging onto Bryce? Yeah but I don’t know what that looks like This team as a whole isn’t very good. Offense and defense and that’s the simple truth

      I didn't move the goal posts. But anyone who follows football who wants to engage in a rational discussion can't argue that 10 7th round picks are equal to 10 1st rounders in value. The argument has always been we haven't spent as much on defense has we have on offense. Draft picks have value just like salary. We have not spent the same amount of draft pick salary cap on defense that we have on offense since drafting Bryce. It's not even close. Just the 2 1sts we used on Bryce, 2 overall 1sts have a value of 6000. That doesn’t even factor in DJ Moore or the 2 2nds. Bryce cost more than everything we've spent on defense in 6 damn years.
