SAUCE PLAYED LIGHTS OUT. I like our secondary. The problem is with the butt awful and overly complicated game plan. The same fucking game plan our illustrious DC calls a no brainier. If is such a no brainer why so many miscommunication and blown coverages by a tough and smart playing secondar?
What’s complicated about their defense? That’s what makes the blown coverages confusing. Pretty sure their defense is pretty basic. It’s not like they’re running Rex Ryan’s defense.
Future All Pro for sure. Hopefully a new head coach will let him roam around and use his full ability all over the field. He did his job on one of the best receivers when he had too.
Fool's gold. No way this guy pans out. He was picked by JD and all his draft picks eventually bust. So add Elijah Moore (injury prone), Garrett Wilson, Michael Carter (injury prone) and Breece Hall to the list. Jermain Johnson is already a bust and Max Mitchell is an aberration. Fire JD!
Jermaine Johnson can't do ANYTHING. I can't believe he didn't have 3 sacks yesterday against a terrible offensive line with only 29% of the snaps given to him. RIDICULOUS.
I recall one play (Chase TD) where Sauce tried to pass Chase off to the safety and both Sauce and the safety ended up guarded the (same) wrong WR, while Chase was wide open in the EZ. Looked to me like Sauced bailed a bit too quick on the Chase coverage. He coulda stayed with Chase just fine while the safety covered the other dude. Looked a bit like Sauce didn't want to cover Chase in the EZ and was just fine passing him off to some other dude. WHat you think?
Yeah that's what I was referring to. I thought it was Chase but thanks for correcting me. I could swear it was Sauce who I thought was the one to blame for that long ball but I can be wrong. I go by memory.
There was a miscommunication but it seems pretty clear it was Whitehead who should have taken Chase on that TD.
Well, not so much according to this analysis: https://www.ganggreennation.com/2022/9/27/23374079/fool-me-twice I knew at the time that it was very similar to the Cooper TD. I hadn't realised that the down, distance and offensive formations were pretty much identical though. I wouldn't mind betting that week 1 was a similar thing too, although a different field position obviously. But for sure, this is going to get tested over and over until it is dealt with.
