May 30, 20242 yr 24 minutes ago, GreenbleedinNC said: The schemes last year didn't even exist LOL ANY scheme is better than the zero we had last year. And now teams have NO IDEA what we come out with There is some positive in any unknowns…much less how predictable we were. But everybody in the league has studied Fangio very heavily. He has a large track record that has been documented. Still isn’t what he creates from our personnel….so will be different some from his past. But guys need to learn and get on the same pages with all the different plays called…versus the opponents corresponding playcalls. Takes time. Just does. Year two, three …so on…be much further developed.

Parris, Ainias and Saquan …if we are being realistic…have concerns on the durability front. Can AJ and DeVonta be as durable as they were last season? Fairly large ask. But 7th to 5th isn’t a huge move upward even on the optimistic point of view. Hurts was kind of handcuffed with crap play calls why wouldn't AJ and Smith perform better with the handcuffs off? Add Goedert being used correctly also

May 30, 20242 yr Author Hurts will have multiple weapons, same or better than last year. He could have multiple guys open too and he needs to make the reads. He won't have bubble screens to count on nor the tush push. It's on him as he constantly states . Now it's time to stop saying it and deliver

The kickers now will absolutely look to kick the ball and land it near the goal line, but just short of it. Not anywhere close to hitting the blockers, even if you give them tennis rackets to hold up. It’s all imagination because we haven’t seen it happen. But we are just spitballing ideas here. But I’m curious where you think the returners will be standing? In my mind the hardest kick to field would be the quirky hard linedrive kick that lands before the returner can catch it. Kicking into the endzone is penalized also. So I was clearly thinking of a line drive kick landing in front of the returner…instead of him catching it….being much more ideal.

May 30, 20242 yr 32 minutes ago, GreenbleedinNC said: We snuffed some good RB's last year why would that be worse now? Arizona ran all over us..again and again and again…all day.
May 30, 20242 yr 35 minutes ago, GreenbleedinNC said: Why would the top LB matter more than the top CB we got in? For run D? Seems obvious.
May 30, 20242 yr 27 minutes ago, GreenbleedinNC said: SO the blockers aren't going to tackle the returner? The blockers are going to …ughh…block…obviously…for the returner.
May 30, 20242 yr 27 minutes ago, GreenbleedinNC said: Who makes the tackle the kicker? Anybody that can avoid/disengage from the blockers, have good angle of pursuit and tackle well. The exact same thing I’ve been saying since the beggining.
May 30, 20242 yr 26 minutes ago, GreenbleedinNC said: Yeah,no one will even trade a 7th for him LOL Not to take on his money. Whole league knows we are cutting him also.
May 30, 20242 yr 23 minutes ago, GreenbleedinNC said: IDK that would be similar to a volleyball spike serve,except with your foot. Very difficult Not that extreme…but believe you’re understanding my point to counter this technique being the blockers raising their hands high….to make it just that more difficult.
May 30, 20242 yr 23 minutes ago, GreenbleedinNC said: From where is this so called angle of attack coming from on a kick off with guys spread out across a line? You also said they are "blockers" So who makes the tackle? Blockers…block for the returner…c’mon man. Blockers block. Kicking team tackles. You’re going backwards.
May 30, 20242 yr 19 minutes ago, GreenbleedinNC said: You asked if I thought we were better 5th is better than 7th? And I can accept your answer on this
May 30, 20242 yr 19 minutes ago, GreenbleedinNC said: RG still bothers me,I can't lie about that What about depth?
May 30, 20242 yr 18 minutes ago, GreenbleedinNC said: Hurts was kind of handcuffed with crap play calls why wouldn't AJ and Smith perform better with the handcuffs off? Add Goedert being used correctly also AJ and DeVonta had some career season stuff. AJ broke the record with consecutive sick games. I hope they both do perform better. But no denying that’s a tall ask. It’s possible…but it’s also possible one gets injured also. AJ went for 1,456 yards. That’s nothing to sneeze at. I do believe he can top that….would be a huge season to do so though. Completely the optimistic viewpoint for it to happen.

I’m completely expecting us to utilize these this season.
May 30, 20242 yr On these returns the rules against creating a wedge would seem to be much more difficult to avoid. The whole situation would seemingly be bunching up the players so much more.

The whole situation would seemingly be bunching up the players so much more. A wedge is the blockers holding hands....doesn't really seem difficult to avoid...for 2 reasons 1. The returner will catch the ball around the 5 or so...the blockers will be 30 yards in front of them and be short handed 9 vs 10. It's not really bunched like the old school kicks where the blockers could run back and form a wedge. Idk it seems you are missing the concepts of the positioning of these guys. They aren't going to be raising their hands to block a kickoff and they are 5 yards away from the kicking team who is going to move first. That's about 2 or 3 strides. It's basically going to be a spread out OL type of blocking with the ball carrier starting deeper with the ball.

A wedge block is defined as two or more players intentionally aligning shoulder-to-shoulder within two yards of each other, and who move forward together in an attempt to block for the runner.

It’s a little tricky…but I guess they can’t really call a penalty for this the way they are aligned.
