Where did this defense come from? (1 Viewer)

The defense has been on the rise since Davenport returned. He is drawing the double team away from Jordan. That was the biggest change. He may not have the stats but Davenport is key. Him being back and having Gardner-Johnson suddenly develop into a LB/SS hybrid.
I agree 100%. This defense has looked completely different since the second Davenport returned to the lineup. It’s hard not to say he has been the catalyst.
 
The demanding all-caps is all the indication necessary to know that everyone needs to fall in line and comply immediately.
Everyone can do as they please....

But this talented group we have didn’t just arrive, they been here! Showing they can ball but it’s up to the team to utilize you correctly
 
Isn’t this what happens every year under Allen? The first three games seem vanilla and then they figure out where to play people and sign key contributors - Eli Apple last year and Kwon this year- and it comes together?

The addition of Kwon- one player- with his coverage ability, changes what DA can do defensively within our scheme.

Its been talked about recently as last week.

couple that with the communication has gotten better and the back-end knowing their specific duties within a particular defense call, and this is the result.
