Is anyone else a little confused about this quote? Are we going to play more 4-3 than we did last year? There's no way we're switching back to a 4-3. And why would we play more 4-3 than when Haynesworth was here? It seems to me that since we're bringing in more personnel to play the 3-4, we should play the 3-4 more this year instead of less.

Sorry man , i was being a smart ass , as Hayensworth was crying about the 3-4 . I think we are sticking w/ the 3-4 . I would assume Cofield will play both NT and end ?

Re: Chris Chester Signs
 

Chester video finished. Now I have to wait an hour for it to process and upload. Thanks to CBS for using a lot of end zone views and Visa sky cams on their replays. Chester video would have been practically worthless without them.

I should've recognized that but I couldn't find a hint of sarcasm or anything in your post. It's all good. And I'd assume Cofield will just play DT full time, in whatever package we're in. We'll probably still rotate but Cofield should get the majority of snaps.

Re: Chris Chester Signs
 

we'll probably keep bowen at DE and rotate cofield at NT and DE will rotating our over 42 DL guys into the 3rd spot (whatever it happens to be) until we figure out what works best and settle it down.

Yea, thats a head scratcher.
Do we even have a proper starting nose tackle?

Judge for yourself. Right Guard #65

[quote]Newly signed Free Agent OL Chris Chester plays Right Guard in this opening round playoff contest against the Chiefs.

Sorry the editing isn't as clean as the other videos but the replays offered the best views of Chester's blocks, especially considering that Chester played Guard in this game (a position usually obstructed with the traditional sideline view).

Videos for newly signed Skins Barry Cofield and Stephen Bowen will be posted in the near future. You can also expect play by play for Beck and maybe the Running Backs for the upcoming preseason.[/quote]

it's tough to judge based on that. They run a power run scheme and we run a ZBS. Dockery was a good power run guard, but sucked in our ZBS system. Chester, it seems, didnt' fit in there power run scheme, but will most likely excel in ours.

what stat is that? 8th in total yards? If so it was probably because our defense sucked so bad we were always behind and had to throw to catch up.If our passing game was so impresive why we trading our starting qb for a 5th round pick?

Thanks for putting that together DB.

No problem. Actually much easier now then when I first started. The Beck videos, my first two, took me like 1.5 hours each. Now I only need like half an hour to put together an 8 minute video. Some take as little as 20 minutes.

Careful man. All these compliments and pretty soon I'm going to be signing my post with a sharpie.

The thing I loved about him in watching this is he has to great mix of nastiness and finesse. Constantly gets to the second level, knows who to get on blitzes, and he's probably the best puller we've seen since Randy Thomas in his prime. Rice didn't put up great rushing numbers in this game but it certainly wasn't Chester's fault, many plays he was the only guy getting a push at the LOS. I was even more impressed that he was playing the more difficult Right Guard spot (regarded by Ross Tucker as the second toughest position on the O-Line.)

Only problem is he tends to waist bend at times. However after getting a chance to see him I have to say it's obvious why he was targeted by our FO and coaching staff.

DB what are the chances of an Atogwe video?
