Nickel might be familiar in the future

I was just thinking, that with 2 allstar tacklers at safety, and how GW thinks that pressure on the QB is helped out by good coverage, that we will see alot of nickle packages next year. One of the safeties will essentially play linebacker when we are in nickle packages.

Re: Nickle might be framiliar in the future

Defensive personell is dictated by the offensive personell.
(3 WR = Nickel)
(4WR = Dime)
(5WR = Quarter aka, the hated 3 man rush)

But, Williams does march to the beat of his own tuba player, so you may be right. It would be a good base package against the Eagles, for instance.

One allstar, one wanna be? Hasen't played up here yet, a little different. But good point.

I think I actually saw the Pats run a 0-5-6 defense once. I can't remember if it was preseason or what, but it was the craziest thing. Not a single d-lineman.

Re: Nickel might be framiliar in the future

We should play nickel. We have 4 starting calibre corners and Stoutmire is a pretty good nickel/dime guy.

Also, I forgot to add that Rogers, Springs, and Smoot (probably MaClin too but I dunno bout him) are all solid against the run.

Re: Nickel might be framiliar in the future

with all the secondary players on the field at once, how do you suggest the skins get to the qback? you can only cover NFL receivers for so long

No, He knows what he's talking about.

You need DB's on all of your WR's because other wise slow linebackers will be guarding them. Bad news.

A properly working G-dub defense is going to blitz the corners and safeties. Taylor also gives you versatility since he is essentially another linebacker. That being said, the D-line needs to generate some pressure on it's own.

Re: Nickel might be framiliar in the future

We should just play a half-dollar zone on every play.

Taylor, Landry, Smoot, Springs, Rogers, Jimoh and Prioleau, with Washington, McIntosh, Marshall and a Sartz/Blades rotation.
