You can still design better alignments and call a more complex defense with out

Talent. You still might get beat but you can game plan, scheme and design better defensive sets regardless of talent. Many coaches do this to their benefit despite lack of talent.

It’s funny listening to you all y’all about how our D just sat back all game

We tried different things. Nothing worked.

Yup. It was the stupid mistakes that killed us more than our D strategy.

Even the pressure an blitz designs were sooooo basic.... like junior

Because we have sooooooo much talent at our disposal to blitz complex packages

You're talking talent, we're talking coaching.

You mean the coaching that got us to 2-2 with wins over USC and TENN? 3/4 vs

Do you mean the coaching that the announcers kept saying we need to change? Or

Or the coaching that actually blitzed in the 2nd half and got roasted.

We'll agree to disagree. The majority of defensive coordinators & head coaches

I never said that I prefer that philosophy. I prefer a philosophy that works

Talent is obviously important but you dont inherently

You can do the same thing with the schemes we’ve already been running.

Which is also coaching. When players are undisciplined and have

Ah, now we are getting at the heart of the issue. Coaching related to penalties

Pretty sure Bronco had no problem doing it...it's not a talent issue; coaching

Pretty sure bronco got the same heat for the same issues

Punk Philosopher

Bronco never got heat for not rushing or not being able to blitz well...haha

Like seriously, I’ve had 7 thumbs down posts and 6 of them are yours

Punk Philosopher

I would rather make them beat us than hope they make mistakes.

BYUfan92

9/21/19 5:09pm

Sure thing buddy

Punk Philosopher

9/21/19 5:13pm

So you'd rather sit back and let them complete 90% and hope they make a mistake?

BYUfan92

I never said that.

And I'm not saying no we should blitz every play. I am saying that most elite

Like we confused USC last week?

Punk Philosopher

You mean the first half wasn't ugly?

cougaman

9/21/19 5:11pm

Not because of the D scheme. Without the mistakes this was a 1 score ballgame.

Punk Philosopher

9/21/19 5:13pm

Washington drove down the field every possession. It was not good defense.

cougaman

9/21/19 5:18pm

And yet, we were driving to make it a 1 score ball game at half time.

Punk Philosopher

9/21/19 5:21pm

Defense continually makes those mistakes. No blame for the DC on that?

cougaman

9/21/19 5:25pm

Sure. Lots of blame to go around. But putting it all on Tuiaki is just silly.

Punk Philosopher

9/21/19 5:26pm

It's not all on Tuiaki, but the defense was a problem, and Tuiaki can't seem to

cougaman

9/21/19 5:27pm

I agree with that.
