Colts Corner Coverage vs Texans


Gavin

Recommended Posts

Huh? Are you going to talk about the previous coverage the Colts DBs have had against the Texans WRs? Or what you think will happen next time we meet? Or are you trying to say our coverage is so bad that it will appear later?

I think he is planning on writing a detailed breakdown of our coverage vs the Texans (I don't know which week, but I assume the secong game).

Sorry about that guys, I am going to go through every game starting with week 1 vs the Texans and type out what I see in coverage to the best of my ability, Im new to learning, what routes are what and what coverages are what,

Play 1(First Down)- Texans line up in the I formation (thats two wide receivers split outside and ant a Fullback and Halfback in the backfield) Jerraud Powers is lined up on Kevin Walters (#83) 5 yards off of him while Jacob Lacey is lined off 3 yards off of Andre Johnson, #86 James Casey goes in motion to the left Angerer shifts out to the left to cover Casey, Bullit takes 4 steps up and then two steps back, the ball is snapped, Jacob Lacey appears to play bump and run before releasing Johnson, Johnson goes in on a Slant it appears the Safeties are late to react to the Slant, Johnson catches the middle at the Colts 44, Johnson makes it to the 39 yard line of the Colts. This was just an attempt and my first attempt at this so give me your opinions and their will be more to come, I will do the rest

While I am sure every appreciates your willingness to do things like this I can't help but think it's a complete waste of time other than for you to understand the game of football a bit better.

To alot that dont take notice of play breakdowns and just the average fan I am sure it will be a waste of time

You very well could be right and it's not my place to tell you what to and what not to do. So by all means scout as much as you want.

To me it's not really relevant to this years team, different players and different scheme. The way you would react to a slant, dig or any route is different in a cover 2 where the corner is mostly playing the flat/hook to curl vs a 3-4 where he is probably going to be maned up on the guy or playing deep thirds.

I think it's great that you are taking the time to study each play and learn though. It really changes the way you watch the game. You can read O-Lineman and already know basically what the play is while the QB is still dropping back.

    • I’m not a religious person, but since you’re an educator I think you’re doing Gods work!   In these crazy insane times we’re all living in you’re doing one of the toughest jobs on earth.  And you’re teaching perhaps the most difficult generation to deal with.     From a distance it feels like you’re being very unfair to you.  I’m hoping in time you’ll see yourself in a completely different light.    Someone highly thought of.  A leader in the community.  A protector of young minds.   I couldn’t admire a teacher more.  
    • You are too self-deprecating. You are one of the most respected and bright members here. You should never feel that you are failing. I'm sure your wife and children don't feel that way.  Indiana does not pay teachers what they deserve. But money is overrated. Having good morals and good character should be valued a lot more. JMO.
    • They make a heck of a lot more money than I do. Even those on the practice squad are making life changing money.    To be completely honest, as an educator I feel more like trash nowadays. One of those moments where I feel like I’m failing as a man, a husband, a father and a teacher. I would absolutely never consider an honest working NFL player as trash. 
    • Food for thought… Once again, you continue to be your own worst enemy.     The Colts overall TE room is loaded with young players most of whom have had very little playing time for a variety of reasons.   So if you want to say the room might not be ranked high, that’s fair.    But you don’t say that.  You call them “trash”.  Why you feel that’s appropriate is a mystery.   Whenever you try the internet tough guy approach it typically blows up on you.     No one is trash.     You ignore the last three years and the QB and HC carousel the Colts have dealt with.  All of which has impacted the Colts weapons, especially the TE’s.   Ballard has publicly talked about how promising he thinks his TE room might be.   Woods, Granson, Ogletree, Mallory and MAC.    Only MAC is questionable and that’s because the salary hasn’t matched expectations.  But the first four?   All are promising.   They’re just young and looking for opportunity.  But they are NOT trash.     There’s a difference.     
    • Some of the coaches?   That sounds plural to me.   To the best of my knowledge the focus in this community has only been on one coach who may not be maximizing the players the Colts have.   And that’s the defensive coordinator.  He’s been a hot topic of conversation.  But I’m not aware of any other coach being viewed in a negative light.
