I could be in the pro bowl qb'ing Frisco if the league played me like Dallas does vs how Baltimore did. Then we gotta look at Dan Quinn all day. It's a joke.

Welp, we found Uncle Rico's burner account...

Why does that make him an idiot? You don’t think teams study film and don’t know other team’s tendencies? Like this is some secret? 
 

difference between knowing what teams do and being good enough to stop it. The Carolina panthers could know every play the other team does and it won’t matter.

 

Because he gave away information for free, regarding specific organizations.

 

He had a choice to say nothing, or something, where saying nothing was the smart choice.

 

He said something. It's dumb.

The league determines if they want you to be good according to you because it's rigged.

So the league is going to allow you to play well?  Why do you get this preferential treatment over Trey Lance?

Offense v Defense has forever been cat and mouse game that keeps evolving.

 

I posted a while back that offenses this season are down compared the last decade and heading into this weekend teams are averaging 21.95 ppg. Comparatively the last five years offenses in the NFL averaged the following ppg:

Defenses have evolved and it is not just playing Cover-2 shell, but far more creative blitz packages that do not send a ton of rushers but are very focused on how they attack the QB while covering the defense. Offenses are having to earn their yards far more then before. Additionally offensive line play has regressed as they keep reducing practices which takes away important developmental time. McDaniel and Miami were ahead of teams for awhile last year, but teams have caught up to there motion offense and figured out how to disrupt Tua better. I do think this year is a bit of blip with the ppg cratering to levels not seen since 2010ish and the injuries to so many major QBs also removed some of the better QBs from being able to drive offenses.

 

But there certainly has been a swing back to defense this year which has been growing for 2-3 years now and I think you are seeing that in spades.

ive been saying it since the offseason. defenses have been drafting smaller/faster players on defense to deal with the high flying passing offenses. last year we saw NE, Cle, Ind make an emphasis on the run games.... all dealing w/ below avg QB production, and leaned in on light defenses. CLE/IND the last few years have been the wildcard type nobody wants to play because of their unique style/lighter defenses.

 

interesting development. didnt expect us to get on board, but did see a run game resurgency coming. i think their will be some bigger Brandon Spikes type players develop a role through the draft/FA again next year. this shizz moves in cycles lol

I don't deal the cards. Maybe it's cause of his appeal to the audience. If it was fair Jacoby Brisett would be winning.

He's white, clean cut, an underdog in stature. But he's no system qb and a mind to rival rain man's through his progression. It's probably an experiment and they'll throw him right in the trash within a year or two

Yep and they have mixed NCB/LB together which is becoming a real weapon or even SAF/LB the way the Bills will use Poyer or Rapp. I am still a firm believer that a true top slot WR or TE can open an offense more then any other position and is basically unguardable. Kincaid has looked very good as a rookie and I am hopeful long term he can be what Beasley was for Josh.

I think he's probably a decent athlete and would be a good piece,but not the star on a softball team somewhere in the midwest.

Allen said last week that they were seeing things from defense they haven’t seen on tape all year long. He said it’s what made the Chargers game more difficult than spent and have expected. Miami could have a similar plan.

So they adjusted to Brady. Now we get to see how/if Brady can evolve. This is how you know if he gets the full time gig. Dorsey couldn't do it.

I think he revealed two things. Both those teams might have some tendencies but I think he also specifically said hit them for 4 quarters. Ie they are physically and possibly mentally soft. 

I will give McD some credit here which I am usally not apt to do.

I think the D is playing the most physical football they have played since McD arrived.  Guys are really hitting and tackling hard.  The defense still has mental lapses but I do think they can really hit guys. Dodson, Rapp, Oliver, Douglas, Poyer(still), Floyd, Jones and Joseph are all very physical defenders.

They're removing some of the physicality. Cook couldn't make a team if born in the right era.

To be fair, the exact same thing was said after the Bills game vs the Dolphins. Their use of motion with Hill was so precise that the Bills used the Dolphins going into motion as a timer to jump the snap. That was how they were getting such consistent pressure on Tua all day.

 

Now, I would assume that McDaniels cleaned a bit of it up, but I believe that the tells are the biggest weakness to the use of motion to the extent that the Phins and Niners use it. Because you need the timing and motion to be perfect on the quick throws, there is a risk of predictability if you rely on it too much...which is the core of McDaniel's offense.

This guy's an idiot, but hey, more fun for us.

 

On the Rich Eisen Shown, Ravens LB Patrick Queen stated that both Miami and San Fran telegraph their plays. 

 

The Ravens found out the tells for each team, obviously he didn't say specifically what they were. Rich tried to wheedle it out of him, but Patrick clammed up real fast. 

 

My guess is we know too, our players just aren't dumb enough to say so out load. 

 

Thank you for that  Patrick. If we play the ravens, I act like Im doing what we normally do and let them bite on the tells, then burn their ***** with something different.  We at least now know that is what they feed off of, they rely on those tells. So make em' pay for it.

Agreed. 2019 defense was probably the last truly physical unit I can remember with McD, since then was more rope a dope.

You guys haven't seen 90 percent of Purdys throws are at or between the hash? So what? Baltimore was told to stop it. The rest of the league put them in the pro bowl. All points to Baltimore coming out rusty and losing after their bye to me.

IF we would get in I can see Bills knocking off KC and Cleveland  beating Baltimore setting up battle of Lake Erie for the Super Bowl
