seaofred92 Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 If Jahkeem Green is #4 that means Avery Anderson either changed his number or left the team 1 Quote Link to comment

So, I wonder how much possible improvement along the line will ultimately impact Barry's play. It's possible that he (and a lot of other players, to be fair) were still trying to do too much in order to make up for inconsistencies elsewhere. The main problem throughout the majority of the season to me was that Chinander wasn't calling blitz package plays, period. It seemed like in roughly 9-10 games he was calling plays where the linbackers were kind of just standing around in a run fit scheme. Quote Link to comment

Probably not good for Anderson one way or the other. Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Seems like they're planning on having Washington around for most of the season. 1 Quote Link to comment

Hard to call blitzes if you can't trust the secondary to cover - look what happened against Iowa. I expect we'll see more blitzing this year. Quote Link to comment

But my original point was responding to the idea that our linebackers "weren't freed up to blitz by the defensive line." They weren't being coached to blitz all that much outside of the Colorado and Ohio State games. Quote Link to comment

It'll be interesting to see how much different the defense looks in year two, there were so many things wrong it's hard to list all of the issues. Better S&C, players not being forced to play out of position, better understanding of the playbook, and even just more familiarity with the other teams in the conference will all change how the defense is called and how they play. I'm optimistic. 1 Quote Link to comment
