3rd and long is our Achilles heel!

42 posts in this topic

it only leads to that if you want it to.

basicially you are just asuming what i meant.

 

its funny cause redrum who posted right after i made that post knew exactly what i meant.

 

both of us noticed that any form of zone coverage couple with a 3-4 man rush is called a prevent defense by many here even though it aint and the same people where specially asking for more man to man coverage and blitzes which is specficially why i only used those words. 

 

what makes this hilarious though is thats its you again who decided to run with something completely different trying to be a smart butt.

 

geez i wonder why :rolleyes:

What's with the personal attacks? Instead of trying to have a discussion, you're sniping at me and others.

One topic: John Harbaugh was questioning Pees' play calling after the game

(on whether the issues are with execution or scheme) “It’s everything. You take responsibility across the board, Mike [Preston]. It’s execution, it’s finding a better way to play. There are options that you have on that last play down there in the red zone, on the five-yard line, besides man coverage, but we decided to blitz them and get after them … and they beat us. We have an option there, we can check to a zone coverage. We didn’t have that on, but there are always options.”

i know fans questioned him cause they accused him of running prevent defense all day and they wanted him to be more aggresive and use more man cov which like i said he did in the bengals game.

 

it backfired completely so its not a suprise the HC started to question it.

 

thats the whole point of my comment and like i said redrum got it.

 

so what exactly are you trying to discuss with me?

 

also you replied to me , i did not start this whatever you wanna call it with you so dont go and blame me for this.

You questioned what other play calls there were besides man/blitz and prevent zone. I offered alternatives. Not blaming you for anything - this is a discussion forum, a message board, if you post something you may get a response. What's not allowed is personal attacks.

read the game threads and the venting thread if they still around.

the not impressed with pees thread should contain a few of them as well.

i did not do that.

 

you assumed i did.

 

i already explained to you the context of my post and i already told you that redrum understood it and even expanded on it.

if you took a second to read his reply you would have a much better context to what i was hinting at.

 

also if you felt i personally attacked you , you are free to punish me if that makes you feel better.

cant see how saying that you are trying to be a smart butt can be considerd a personal attack but its all good.

 

i knew it was comming the moment you decided to reply to me under the pretense of having a discussion about somthing im not even talking or  hinting about :lol:

I wonder how fervently the players study film on their own time. Ed and Ray were fanatical and I wonder if the tradition of DB'S gathering mid-week away from the facility to watch and discuss opponent film has gone by the wayside.

I wonder if Ed could be paid to come in(if interested)and teach these guys how he studied an opponent and put forth to them the difference that it makes.

You did ask the question, literally. If you were just baiting others then why bother to post it? When you actually got a valid response, you bashed me.

Knew what was coming? A lot of your responses across all threads have been more about sniping people than discussing topics, apparently.

Really not much of a diffrence between a prevent and a soft zone imo. The lack of communication, the missed tackles, not knowing how long to stay in your zone before you converge yeah you can blame that on position coaches(the secondary coach is a newbie who's wet behind the ears) but the bottomline is who's the grand poobah. The conductor of the defense.

 

All I iknow is that on 3rd down and long I have no confidence. I'm just hoping and praying we can stop em

there is no ?  to be found in my post.

 

so no i wasent asking a question looking for an awnser that contains stuff that should be common knowledge for everyone who watches football.

 

like i said redrum got it and i ackknowleded that he got it.

 

if you take it another way then its on you.

if you keep persisting even when told you took it the wrong way its still on you.

 

if you feel im sniping at people then thats fine cause you are entiteld to your opinion.

im not here to be popular and say what people want to here.

if you feel i did something wrong then go ahead and punish me.

 

at this point unless you wanna discuss what i was really talking about i aint going to reply to you anymore.

 

call it straw man fallacies or whatever , i dont really care.

last thing i need is a mod trollin me.

As soon as I posted It occurred to me that this would certainly be on Webb and Jimmy to continue. It would be nice if such a meeting were directed by someone with the football intuition that Reed possesses but, in actuality it would be a benefit even if Melvin or Elam were heading it up.

I am certain that off field communication facilitates more intuitive play and on field communication and would love to know if that tradition continues. Good looking pup.
