[QUOTE="alentrekin, post: 255328, member: 2909"] When I flipped the game up from my laptop to the tv screen, my girlfriend immediately, without thinking, said "wow, they are much bigger than the jackets." the D is more or less a position-level too small at every level. e.g. Pat Gamble is DE sized, Keshun is OLB sized, our CBs are nickels and one of our WLBs is a safety (curry). the interior is small, and the exterior is smaller. it doesn't hold for the whole two-deep, but it's indicative of the challenges these guys as well as their coaches and coordinators face. as boomer said, no defensive scheme works if their OL controls your DL. more blitzing just means more unjustifiable (send more blocked guys?) risk. that said, i really get a perverse joy out of watching this team fight. they do have a ton of heart, which is to say they play to the whistle, through the 4th quarter and often put themselves in good positions (e.g. dropped INT last game, Pat Gamble in the right spot but flat footed on the jet sweep). it's tough to watch sometimes but i don't think it's right to put it all on scheme.
