Fir those who were frustrated with how little we blitzed under Flus, you should know….

 

That Bradley’s track record is of blitzing even less.    His defenses are typically in the bottom 4-ish in blitzing.   GB is counting on his front four to provide the overwhelming majority of sacks, hits and pressures. 
 

Will be interesting to see his willingness to blitz with guys like Moore, Leonard and others…..

Gus also said he would go off of skillset. Moore is excellent blitzing off the edge. I got him getting 3+ sacks. Leonard as well is a great Blitzer. If anyone in NFL history could get 200+ tackles,  10+ sacks,  and 10+ forced turnovers in a season it's him.

  I see us creating a lot of pressure up the middle that Frequently makes the QB have to move off his comfy spot. Throw in tight man to man and there is going to be a lot of opportunities for DL to clean up with sacks and TFL's.

I put in elite on low passing tds bc I think it may be one of those bend but don’t break defenses.  The other team may get yards between the 20s and of we don’t get turnovers by them getting inside the 20 I think the d tightens up and few tds are allowed.

Moore, Blackmon, Cross, and Leonard.... all good (blitzing) IMO. 

Not a lot, but will be great.

Way too much "bend-but-don't-break" 2021.... 

2022 will see more man IMO... hopefully IMO.

    • Packers fans can tell me about Joe Barry that was their DC from 2021-23. They were always in the Top 12-15 range in terms of points per game as opposed to the Colts.   But the year 2021, the Colts were on par because we ran the ball well and possessed it well. Not so much in 2022, and 2023 was a bit of defensive regression for decent possession of the ball from Bradley’s unit.   Brandon Staley is another name but I’d prefer Jon Barry for his units to generate pressure. Otherwise we’d have to look at college like Packers getting the Boston College HC.   I’m a fan of Jim Leonhard that was a heck of a defensive coach / DC at Wisconsin, and is now a DB coach with Broncos. Dave Merritt, the Chiefs DB coach has done an outstanding job there and was interviewed for DC by 49ers.   My pick would be Jim Leonhard or Dave Merritt.    
    • You can’t keep winning only scoring one TD A game. I think they have gotten some what lucky with who they have played. Colds dline beat up so we will see.
    • What I meant is they are not going to come out and just throw 50 times. They are going to try and break your will and run out the clock. It’s  probably going to be a low scoring game. They have only scored 3 offensive TD. I am shocked they str 3-0. They don’t have many offensive weapons. Harris is not really a pass catching back who will break a long run. Now could that change. Off course. But their Oline id beat up. I was reading an article how they tried to open things up and Fields immediately got sacked. He they try to open things up till he revert back to Bears fields. 
    • I don’t know enough of the position coaches on other teams to say who is worthy of promotion. Best to keep an eye out on head coaches on the hot seat and their staffs. 
    • Sadly also changing my Colts pick.. 😞   Steelers 21 vs Colts 17
