umm...yea...blitzing? know what it is? its a play where you bring more than just the 4 lineman...


Its you that don't seem to understand. Four different LBs had a sack for us this year, meaning we blitzed LBs numerous times. We blitzed Coleman more often than not.

You don't seem to understand that blitzers can be picked up quite easily by blocking schemes when a DL is playing as poorly as our was this year. And a blocked LB/S is worse than not blitzing him at all, because they very, very rarely do anything after being blocked by a lineman or TE. And now, you have one guy less guy who can cover...

technically it doesnt mean we blitzed numerous times, it means we called different ones...

I dont believe this... cause we didnt blitz that much

totally agree and got it the first time...believe me I know the DL was horrendous and almost all the blame goes on them for long sustaining drives...but at some point to win close games you have to take risk...and win the down and distance battle...we were never setup with down and distance in our favor...
