For a guy that knows the Patriots inside and out .... he said you can't beat the Patriots by playing zone defense, because their OL is good and will keep the rush away from Brady, and he'll pick the zone apart all day. He said the Jets and Bears both relied on zone defense and were destroyed. Without playing man defense and bumping the WRs, there is no chance of beating them.
I heard the same thing....very interesting
Apparently Lovie and Martz missed it.
makes sense. Especially after seeing the first half.
:asshat3::asshat3::asshat3:Martz??? Yea Lovie's job is on the line as we all know!!! Not surprised to see him act stubborn as usual like every things great. He probably thinks if he just acts the same way with the same no emotion persona he'll keep his job??? Because thats how he coaches he runs the same schemes and it seems like he prays they will work. OMG , SMH , IMO the dreaded cover-2 is the worst thing about watching the Bears. Well I want him fired and JA and that dumb scheme to go with him(and the o-line)!!! I think that we should keep Martz as the Offensive Coordinator like the Bears did in '85 with Buddy Ryan. Because that offense is still a work in progress obviously and with some new(good) acquisitions via the draft and free agency I bet the offense will be more exciting to watch than the defense real soon. But for head coach I want Cowher and the 3-4 defense NOW , we have the players to run that defense. Sorry , but my guess is the rest of the teams we face will do the same offense we seen today which means we lose but we MIGHT win against the vikings. I don't know if that will be enough but I am just so frustrated right now it just sucks:asshat3::asshat3::asshat3:
Everyone was saying it at half time; the Chin, Dungey(Lovie's boy who created the dreaded Tampa-2) all were saying in this kind of weather you cannot create the kind of pressure needed; then you look at that BEEFY OL of NE and I doubt in good weather we could have gotten that pressure. Need to man up occassionly Lovie....At least not play 15 yrds off the f'n wr's that are planning on running a 5yrd route.
One problem with this defense (or the way we've built it) is that the corners aren't terrific cover guys. They're generally zone defenders who are above average in run support. Sure, they can go man on occasion, but we have no shut down corners. There's a reason Angelo can find us new starters in the middle rounds. They're specific kinds of guys he looks for.
IMO, it wouldn't hurt us to get a lock down kind of guy. Sort of how we always had undersized, pass rushing 3 techniques and it kicked our butt in run D. I think it's time to adapt the philosophy on the corners.
I thought Buddy Ryan left to head coach the Eagles after the '85 season.Quote:

This again huh Mo? You still never responded with an actual answer as to how the design of their offense doesn't make a QB look better, other than some weak ass 'why doesn't everyone run it then.. hmph'. And what about yesterday really impressed you with Brady? I saw a bunch of wide open receivers with little pocket pressure. Kyle Orton would have picked us apart.Quote:
