Dagerow Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Do you think our defense will be similar to what we did a few years ago? We have lots of experience in the secondary, limited experience at linebacker, and will be facing a lot more spread teams. It makes sense to me. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Sure seems like we could go back to more Peso look with CJax and Green taking that Haag and Gomes roles. Would be interesting. Quote Link to comment
HuskerFowler Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 He's splitting time between both. Don't think he officially moved. Quote Link to comment
huKSer Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 I don't think his vertical nor speed will help us Quote Link to comment
HuskerNationNick Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 I am still not sold on Green as a solid CB, I don't know how I feel about him at safety. Not a knock on him, but he likes to go for that big play too much, rather than just making an incomplete pass. He has the intangibles to be a great CB, but he has a lot of mental mistakes.

Think Gerry would make a great peso, he's tailor-made for that hybrid-role, but I don't know about him being able to play it this season. Quote Link to comment

Perhaps a little later in the year depending on how fast he picks things up. Of course, our first nine games set up pretty well for a Peso-style defense. The last three will probably be more of a traditional 4-3 so his window is compressed a little bit. Quote Link to comment
Husker from Kansas Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 I know it wont happen this year, but next year or in a couple of years D-Mart could possibly play that role Quote Link to comment

Gerry would have to have a hell of a learning curve to play safety in Pelini's defense. Quote Link to comment
