GDUB is brilliant. he is getting his players to overachieve.

BUT

watching the seattle game i noticed a few flaws. Instead of Mixing up man and zone, we are primarily playing zone. our blitzes are coming from the same two positions(CORNER and STONGSIDE LB-washington delay blitz). We arent using taylor in an attacking mode. he was in coverage the whole game. too far from the line to make on impact on the running game.

I think williams is scared to play Harris and Rogers man to man. harris is a decent player but he looked great last year because he was facing the opposing teams #3 WR. rogers has alot of talent but is still a rookie(gave too much cusion last game). also, we are using our linebackers too much in coverage.

last game, seattle was killing us with sideline passes, engram would've been player of the month if he hadnt been injured. when we shifted our defence to cover the play(moved a linebacker in coverage), alexander started breaking runs on us.

I hope williams gets a little more exotic with his blitzes. play the corners in man to man, make them earn their money. give taylor and arrington a chance to make plays. they are 2 of the top 15 best athletes in the game. use them.

the D gave up 2 TD in the second half of the game. any good QB will be able to pick apart our defence if we stay in zone blitzing the same 2 players.

we have 1 int because we arent playing an attacking defence.
