fanatic got it right.
we have 3 blitz packages:
corner blitz, teams arent supprised when we do it so springs and harris always get stopped.

Delay blitz, stunt the linemen and have a linebacker(usually washington or marshall) run up the middle hoping the offensivelinemen are already committed to blocking.

Zone Blitz, bring up everyone to the line and drop both defensive ends and rush arrington and washington.

We dont blitz safeties because we HAVE TO use them in coverage( i miss you smooty ). when we play a zone defence, any QB in the league can pick us apart because our front four gets absolutely no pressure.

another problem: we are using our Dlinemen to cover gaps not rush the passer. it helped solve the big runs to the right side problem but opens up more problem.

and another thing:
the reason why we dont get turnovers is because our guys dont match up with anyone. they all play a zone. NFL QB's(even the really bad ones) can pick apart zone coverages. they threw to galloway every time he was in Piersons zone...
when they throw to our corners, they are so far off they never have a chance to make a play on the ball. when was the last time you saw a Cornerback get his hands on the ball?
there is no reason why springs shouldnt shadow galloway( or any teams #1 WR).

our defensive scheme is too much "Bend but dont break" right now.

we have to make simms earn his TD's to galloway by throwing at springs one on one.

Match our talented guys up one on one and help the others. Give springs, Taylor, Washington and lavar a chance to make plays or get beat.

all year teams have been dictating our matchups. we cant let that happen. no more #1 WR vs a safety. we need to let springs lock them up. if springs gets beat, fine... but if we let pierson cover a teams WR, we are morons. I CAN GUARANTEE YOU THAT THE RAIDERS WILL LOOK FOR THAT MATCHUP.
