That is because some of the historically better defensive teams have focused on playing coverage. Teams that are aggressive in generating sacks like the Steelers, Ravens are still retooling their D while teams like the Cardinals and 49ers are hurting at the LB position where a lot of blitzes and sacks come from. Seahawks have never been a sack driven team, they are mostly a 4 man rush with their stellar 5 in the secondary playing coverage and forcing mistakes. Heck, even the Bengals are following the Seahawks approach albeit with a little more blitzing.

So, I'm guessing no one actually viewed the video,  except maybe Doug Dew......

 

Clayton actually says more teams are having their QB get the ball out of their hands much faster now,  the way Peyton does in Denver.     Can't sack a guy if he doesn't have the ball in his hands.

I watched it and then i watched Rust give a pep talk to the Longhorns. Your "hard hitting" analysis is not worthy of your flippant tone, sir. The vid may as well have been a gif it was the usual espn garbage.

What a great first exchange here on the website.

 

Feel free to ignore me.   And I'll be happy to do the same to you.

 

Gee,  I feel better already.    

 

You've haven't even begun to get my "flippant tone" young man..........

I read a lot but seldom post, but I do wish I was young again.

      Taking Taylor off the field

      By GoColts8818 · Posted

      The Colts handed Taylor a boat load of money which is unheard for a running back in today’s NFL.  You don’t do that and take him off the field in crucial situations for Trey Sermon and Tyler Goodson.  Shane has done just that in two of the last three games he’s coached.  Not playing maybe your best offensive weapon for a whole fourth quarter is criminal.  Shane is trying to be too cute and over thinking things trying to fool other teams and it’s not working in the slightest.  Play your best players at the most critical points of games.  That’s why you paid them.

      Rushing Defense Woes

      I agree 100 Ballard time is up , him and Bradley. You can preach accountability and retain Bradley another year….Ballard loves to say guys just need to hit the layup… he should take his own advice we all knew we needed help in the secondary this year no moves, we all knew we needed help last year at corner , oline year before. I talking about obvious weaknesses media calls him out on it year after year and he plays it off like he smarter than everyone then admit mistakes at the end of year and does the same thing. Bradley doesn’t make any adjustment like he runs what he runs and that it

      To be honest this is malpractice by Ballard ….. like I know they think us fans are stupid but some of us played sports , coached sports , watched sports etc… we know what we are seeing like everyone knew we needed depth in the second. But Ballard doesn’t bring vets in and makes guys compete for a job he hands them to players he thinks are nice people a deserve a shot. Ala Pinter, NFL is a league where you get what you earn ,you eat what you kill , not what you deserve. Ballard need to take a hard look at him self at look at how other teams that win are built. We need speed at the corner position and a scheme shift. Like no HC under Ballard has been able to pick they DC he normally has one before they get hired and they retain Ballard guy
