Playing good WR's

I was looking at our schedule, and we are playing quite a few teams who will have a nasty pass offense (ie Patriots, Eagles, Giants, Cardinals, Jets, Lions), and I began to think to myself, how will we play these teams. To me it seems as if Gregg Williams defense relies on quality coverage so that there can be alot of blitzing. But when the other team will use many multiple wide reciever sets with multiple guys who are hard to gaurd, relying on quality coverage to blitz might be tricky. Do you think that we will double up on the high quality recievers such as moss, burress, owens, fitzgerald, boldin, williams, johnson, and coles, and therefore not be able to blitz as much, or do you think that we will rely on single good coverage and expect that to work, and still blitz a whole lot. Personally, I think that Williams will try to rely on good coverage, and will not double team many players, and will still try to blitz alot. This will lead to someone getting burned more than he should be and everyone hating on him even though he has been asked to do something unreasonable by being asked to single cover a great WR almost all the time.

Re: Playing good WR's

all right, I guess I messed up on Philly, but I only added them cause they have such a good passing game, they had the most passing yards last season, I guess I overlooked that they dont have any stud wr's. But I do think that Det does in Roy Williams and Calvin Johnson, Dal does in TO, Terry Glenn, and Jason Witten, the Gialnts do in Plaxico Burress, Amani Toomer, Jeremy Shokey, and the X-factor of steve smith and sinorice moss being good (they are undecided yet because of their age), and the Jets do in Laverneous Coles, and Jerricho Cotchery.

Re: Playing good WR's

If they don't match up man to man they will probubly use zone coverages as they have in the past. Either way if Taylor is aloud to roam the back field I think WR's will be a little Hesitant to go deep. We may see more offenses going 5-10 yrds all the way down the field. They may use more TE's also. Their size is a better match with Taylor.

Re: Playing good WR's

I suspect that our defense is going to be vastly different this year. It sounds like Grills has trashed a bunch of stuff and implemented some new stuff. I am curious to see how closely our scheme looks to the Chicago scheme since that is reportedly where Grills is getting his inspiration.

Keep our offense on the field and the other team can't score with the WRs on the sideline. Ball control and Long drives. Skins football

Smoot is not one of the two best corners on the team. He may have better hands than Rogers, but he gives about the same cushion, and he's a half assed tackler.

What re you talking about?? We have four corners on rooster that is starter, Springs, Rogers, Smoot, Macklin.. As for safety, Prio, ST, Landry, Fox, and Omar.. I think we won't have much of problem of getting burned this year like last year..
