T.D Lined Up As DE, But Dropped Back For The INT

[beastson]

When I posted that Seattle article on how they beat Saints, everybody kept talking about their corners. But the article was focused on Seattle d-line and linebackers play that lead them to dominance, not their corners

 

And guess what... d-lineman dropping into coverage was one of the things they did to confuse and disrupt Brees

From McDerp to McGOAT.

That was an incredible effort by TD.

fantastic call.  I saw that TD was lined up in a 3-point and didn't think a lot of it.  Great play - show him as a DL, bring Kuechly, so gotta get the ball out fast, right at TD. 

 

 Saw CJ was deep in coverage at one point.  Seeing it of course means he got picked on, but you can't win them all

i noticed CJ dropping into the flats a couple times... a good throw from brees to jimmy graham negated it on one play

 

good to see us switching stuff up though, it takes a hell of a good scheme to trick drew brees, and it happened numerous times today.

Drew Brees can't see because of his height at times, so a lot of his throws are thrown where players are SUPPOSED to be. Exactly what happened there. That's why you see him trying to stretch his neck like a giraffe to try and see over the linemen, or he'll have a twenty step dropback to try and get a better view.
