re: Not getting off the field on 3rd down

We played off of their WR on the outside, and played a lot of soft zone underneath and over the middle.

I saw several times where a LB in zone moved to cover a shorter receiver - a lot of times who was already in someone else's zone, leaving someone (usually the TE) more easily wide open behind them.

Giver the number of new players and the new scheme for our defense, it was bound to have lots of little miscommunications which need correction. Only a live fire game could really teach this.
