Question....if its the Eagles..how do we prepare for that up tempo offense?

I believe the Taints will fold like a cheap tent in the cold of Philly and that the birds will be here. My concern is that our defense will not get much practice with that kind of against our offense these next two weeks ( our offense is pretty slow moving and ponderous,far from up tempo),so it could be a challenge. Their running back is the kind of back that tends to give us fits. I remember back in the pre-season and they shredded us.....I know we didn't game plan and the D hadn't jelled yet. Do you think RR and MCD can meet the challenge? Can they kick our offense in the ass and get them to play up tempo to simulate what our D will face during practice?

Well chop that poo down to size. :) Carolina has a whole season worth of games to game plan on plus now this unit is BATTLE tested. Saints are better than Philly with a Legit quarterback who has playoff experience and we still beat the Saints. :) 

 

Panthers want this - Panthers will Get this  GO PANTHERS !!!

When Belichick was prepping to face the Rams in the Super Bowl, he allowed his receivers to line up with a two to three yard head start to help the defense get used to the speed of that team's attack.

 

There's always things you can do.  I'd say the fact that we faced them in preseason and got a look at what they were like would be a plus.

In all honesty they are battle tested and ready since the last few games.  Our offense was less then steller and the Defense was out there quite a bit each game, so I wouldn't think they would have a problem keeping up with the speed of the Eagles Offense.

Crowd noise, getting stops on 3rd down and turnovers... up-tempo offense is a double edged sword like Rivera said earlier in the year, if the Eagles can't maintain drives then it exposes their defense and our offense is well suited to take advantage of that and control the time of possession.

 

You can't run a high-octane up tempo offense from the sideline.

Stanford's offense beat Oregon's offense this season in CFB more than the Stanford defense shut down the Oregon offense.  Sustain your drives on offense, keep them off the field, control field position, and limit them to field goals instead of TDs.

 

Basically just keep doing what we have been doing.

 

You don't have to get to clever, if you can stop the run with the front 7 and rush the passer with the front 4 you don't need a lot of exotic defenses to stop this attack.  You have to win against your blocks and stay true to your assignments.

    • I don’t know about floor in a team defense sense but we needed more.  The floor that I am familiar with is our QBs floor and it is so low that every other part of the team needs to be beefed up.     We tried our best to improve these things and I think we did improve the defense and we at least kept the offense  from sinking from no LT.  And ostensibly helped the receivers too.   So we kept a window open that we at least have a chance to improve our record by a game of two.  Which would probably give us the division.

    • Yeah. I am one of. those who think a JAG RB can eat with really good blocking. (Brooks is most important in my mind, in tbe passing game and that is what we’ll lose without him)  There are a lot of aspects to this. The big one that caused us to struggle is Young and his arm scared no one.  Best back, best blocking still cannot defeat a really good defense if they are not forced to respect the pass.  And teams did not.    But, a strong OL and running game Can get us over against weaker defenses.  And if Bryce still doesn’t scare anyone we can still win some games. Like last year  So it is really important to tend to that OL.   Get that straight and see if in his fourth year he can finally back defenses off. That is what if is all about this year to me, on the Bryce front.
