Did you not see what we had at SAFETY? Sorry that was not an option last year. Maybe moving forward it will be, but not the last 2 years.Cribby, spot on assessment. However when we're in a short yardage situation, be it 2nd or 3rd, you need to stop run first. Therefore, you try to use a guy that is big enough to defend run and ideally be able to jam the wr enough to throw off the timing of a short route. Unfortunately neither TA or TC got the job done. Obviously there were plenty of times we just plain had the wrong personnel out there too. There are some game day issues that need improvement.
That's why when you play spread teams you replace a lb with a S , good enough for run support and can still cover. Or replace a lb with a cb and bring a S down for the run. There's many options, but we continually did the same ole crap.
What are you talking about? Db was our strength last year. We could've had Howard, Gunter and Crawford/Artie at cb and a S in the box, that's not better than Armbrister, Gaines and Dp on wr 's? We had plenty of options with our secondary. If anything it would've protected our lbs and safeties.
Spread teams were salivating for the bs we were running.
Why not play to our strength?
