Defensive Breakdown: How Manny Diaz Sees the Defense So Far

[umhurricano]

God imagine having our 4 DEs lining up in an obvious passing situation.

Ferrari Unit vs 4WR 2 minute drill or team playing catchup (by end of season):

DE Joe Jackson/Patchan/DJ Johnson
DT Chad Thomas
DT RJ Mcintosh
DE Trent Harris/Jon Garvin

LB Mccloud/Quarterman

CB Delaney
CB Young
CB Dean
CB Bandy
S Redwine
S Jaquan Johnson

Blitzzzzzzzz!

That's a lot of ball skill on the back end. I can't remember the last time we had multiple guys who are great at playing the ball in the air and will be looking for INTs, not breakups.

I think we will definitely see a lot of that this year Lu. We might even be able to get 4 DE across the DL for Norton and McIntosh.

Love. this. guy!

Granted we're only one season in, but CMR couldn't have made a better hire for D-Cord that him, as the saying goes "he get's it"

Have to keep Norton/McIntosh healthy and fresh.

If it's 3rd and long those two should come rumbling off the field routinely imo.

After the last regime this level of willingness and ability to adapt is like water in the g'damned desert.

150% Agreed. 3rd and long and our DT depth they should definitely be hustling off the field.

One thing Diaz may want to scrap is having 3 DL on the field in passing situations.

Meh.
The 3 man D line worked in some situations against other teams.
If I remember correctly Joe Jackson's big sack in the Bowl game was in a three man DL.

His sack against Duke was a 3 man rush, but the one against WV was not.
