I just watched the ESPN crew talk about the Tams/Philly game. They said da key to beating Stafford is collapsing the pocket up the middle.
Meanwhile, one of the lil tweaks DC Joe Woods n da D line Coaches have made is goin with Shep n Bink, da better run stoppers, in on early downs at DT, n then bringing in BB n Chase in on passing downs.
Is it working? Too early to tell for sure. But da Browns had 20 carries for 66 yds, and were like 3-13 on 3rd downs, n with little blitzing, da DLine got 3 sacks.
So here’s what I think we’ll do esp on pass D vs da Rams:
Play more ZONE. Not only to help Tae n Koolaid more, but to force Stafford ( who ain’t goin nowhere to n da pocket) to hold da ball a lil longer n give the D line a chance to get home.
But if do we blitz, I look for DD comin right up da middle!
IKR!
But I think a big reason is that most fans believe Matt Stafford, along with Pooky n Kupp are the most serious threat to our banged up secondary, n esp Tae n rookie Koolaid at CB!
So beating them would be huge!!!
