[QUOTE="YJMD, post: 337487, member: 1929"] CTR sent more guys to the LOS as the game wore on and I think it hurt us. Our blitz schemes aren't that complex and rely on numbers rather than twists, overloading spots, getting around the corner of a tackle, etc. When we tired we couldn't get off blocks to control the LOS and lost contain in the run game. Our back 7 relies on being able to go downhill and separate man from ball or have someone operate as a robber underneath. That worked a lot of times (and an INT or 2 would have changed things dramatically). When we were sitting on a bigger receiver we couldn't tackle him without momentum. When we were 1 on 1 we didn't have the size to win a jump ball. I'm ok with those liabilities except the tracking, but we have to find a way to keep our guys on the DL fresh (more rotation) and creative ways to get pressure. Ironically, we got more pressure on the edge rushing 3. I imagine this was because they were free to pursue instead of try and keep gap integrity in the run game or engage a blocker to free up space for someone else. We are going to struggle from a depth standpoint up front and got help us if injuries hit, but we can do more with the talent we have. That said, kudos to Roof and the D for what we actually did well. Sure we could do better, but they didn't lose us this game. [/QUOTE]
