In one second of that clip he showed why the defense will be better and Perkins will shine. Perkins tried to avoid too many blacks last year by stepping out of his gap and into the direction the blocker intended to block him. Baker is actually teaching him how to remain in his gap and shed the blocker so he can be in position to make a play. He also showed how to read a tackle when you threaten him with the speed rush outside. Baker is detailed oriented guy, which is what this defense needed.

Yeah I loved that clip of Baker instantly getting on Perkins trying to jump the gap and avoid the lineman. You could see it made Perkins off balance and easy for lineman to just turn you or take you out of the play. Attacking the block and shedding is a basic technique but I'm not so sure what the previous staff was teaching. It's all back to the basics with this staff and will pay dividends imo.

If he can do that...GOAT!

Or he's riding the pine, either way.
