  1. You don’t need a lot of yards with short fields & we are always giving short fields
  2. I agree but good teams don’t do it every week during crunch time, we pucker up during those times
  3. We need to get some more players but we need to learn how to win, we are right there & self implode every time. It’s been interception, muffed punts, terrible unexcused pre snap penalties & terrible clock & game management down the stretch week in & week out, we would be fairly satisfied if they had figured out a way to win a couple of the MAC games We didn’t & until they do we suck & the coaches need to figure it out because come crunch time we pee down our leg fyi - i didn’t use pee, lol, this must be a family friendly site
  4. He was sacked I think like 7 times. That is the minus 25 yards
  5. Jamal Davis - Bowden
  6. Could be a fringe P5 guy in recruiting & they played well in G5 in the 1st 4 games and redshirt & save 4 years at a bigger P5 program
  7. I am also not throwing credentials or questioning yours, your a great poster & bring a lot to the table but a great head coach or person in general is open to listening, I’m not trying to change your opinion on any defense. I’m just saying no defense stays in a base or they get killed, need to be a hybrid to be able be flexible or the OC will dictate the game please don’t take personal edit i guess i did say it CAN be a great defense (can being emphasized)if you have the right personnel, meaning you have great S / LB’s that are versatile & can play both & Im not a big 3-3-5 fan but some have made it work sorry, maybe i missed my own point lol let’s move on
  8. Last time, you are missing the point, i never said any defense was good, I’m saying don’t get caught up in base defenses they have to be hybrids with offenses having progressed so much, never once did I say I liked the 3-3-5
  9. Again you miss the point, all defenses have a base but adjust to the formation, West Virginia ran it pretty well for years but they had players that could play Safety / LB so there base was a 3-3-5 mostly for the spread formation but as you can see by the uploaded image of a team in 21 personnel the defense is in a 3-5 but LB’s can cover, it’s critical or you will get ran all over. This defense was a craz for awhile I know I’m gonna embarrass myself and age myself but I have probably coached every defense there is out there, 7 diamond, 6-2, 5-3, 4-3, 3-4, 3-3. I’m older so I’ve seen the evolution of the offense but at one time I use to run a 5-4. You couldn’t run against it and forced teams to pass which wasn’t what they was comfortable doing and it was very vulnerable to the pass but I adjusted base on formation. The T, wing t or power I was big back then so you had 32 personnel & 5-4 worked great. If they got out of their comfort zone and put a WR on the field you could go 5-3, 2 WR’s you could go 5-2, OLB became safeties & all zone coverage but again it was against all running teams you forced into passing if you could. point is better be a hybrid defense, flexibility or these offenses will figure out your weakness & expose you, but you need athletes that can fill that safety / LB mold which is difficult to find that good of an athlete that has the size & speed needed, but great d lineman make all defenses better
  10. I think these are all kind of gimmicks, it all depends on personnel, 3-3-5 can be a great defense if you have personnel with players that can play safety & linebacker so that defense can be a 3-5-3 as well, flexible players so they can adjust to formations & not get burnt in offensive personnel changes by down & distance, but it’s similar with the 4-3 & 3-4 with it being a DE or OLB, hand in the ground, stand or have a TJ Watt that can do both, great players give you flexibility
  11. But it’s ok to have an escort service on speed dial, so I’m sure you can be forgiven
  12. My fear is speed, they will have a ton of it in their skilled positions, better understand there assignments and use the right angles or they could have big plays
  13. I’m told there starting RB is out, 3rd string QB & going 4 wide and both our old recruits Louis & Sibley are starting & supposed to be a big part of the offense
  14. IMHO SFU stunted up front and brought blitzes from somewhere every play & we was bad in all phases of handling that. 1. Communication between lineman on stunts is huge 2. Back picking up missed blitzes 3. Play calls to hit blitzes where they hurt, quick slants etc. 4. QB knowing who the hot read is but replacing gray was huge cause he gets edged rushed to death & once he gets out there & they cut in & slap an arm he damn near falls down with no balance & good footwork
  15. I hear they got a RB down & with the new QB they are going 4 wide & both our old recruits will be on the field
  16. #21 is Treon carrying the flag
  17. Shredo Louis is also an old friend, him & Treon where not eligible & both took off for Liberty at the same time.
  18. Chances are they will run the option
  19. Penalties, very sloppy today
  20. Picking on Hooks
