re: If I were Aranda...

Has Ed Paris played much at all this year?

I haven't noticed

Getting Delpit into nickel back gets our strength to the line and reinforces that they need to pass. We need to shut down the run but *maybe* also have the talent to play D against the pass.

Jesus, just because Delpit has talent doesnt mean that he has talent "at the line". He's not Laron Landry or Jamal Adams. He's undersized. Bama will come in a run the football aggressively. We need bigger bodies near the line of scrimmage, not DB's.

Naw, you guys are getting it ALL WRONG. The way to beat Bama is, on the very first play of the game, have the OL pretend to block but allow Raekwon Davis thru. Then, when he's about 2 feet away, tell Burrow to snap his head back and fall on the ground in front of the referee. With all the scrutiny he'll be under, the ref will have to throw the flag!!

With Davis out of the game for targeting, we can score all night and keep the defense off the field.
