What Happen to Your D

Hey Guys I didn't actually saw the game followed it by Gamecast, but man your first team defense got torch for more then 140 yards rushing by a crappy Jets running game.

This is suppose to be your strength and the offense that even I believe it's going to be explosive has been non existence

And Man was Gibbs pissed after the game

what are your thoughts about all the things happening?

We're totally screwed. Doomed I tell ya. Doomed! Might as well shut the site down Matty, season's over. Time to sell the team, sell the domain name. Focus on our jai alai message board.

Been busy thinking about the cow-not-quite-men, double-beat-down last year! Season hasn't started yet.

HTTR! Beat Dallas!

Yeah, because everyone knows IT'S ALL ABOUT THE O.

I don't think D'Boyz is trying to trash talk us. I think he's earnestly asking our opinion of the problems.

On the run defense, I noticed Williams lining the guys up in a straight 4-3 most downs. Williams' ultimate run defense formation is a 5-2, when he lines Daniels over one of the guards, Griffin over the center, Salave'a over the guard, and Carter right over the tackle. He then moves Washington up to the line, just outside the other tackle. The formation prevents the center from reaching the second level, forcing him to handle Griffin, and allowing each of the D-lineman to go man-on-man with the offensive line. The players all use their quickness to generate penetration, and since the center is occupied with Griffin, Lemar Marshall runs free to the ball-carrier. He never ran this formation once against the Jets. He just lined the guys up in terrible situations and they were letting up 4 and 5 yards on a consistent basis. Of those 140 yards you mentioned, 61 came on that reverse play which was simply the result of overpursuit. That part is the player's fault, but otherwise I think it was simple scheming.

If the Skins get gashed by Dillon/Maroney this week against the Patriots, then I'll be worried about the run defense.

As for the offense, the receivers are getting open and the line is protecting Brunell. But Brunell's timing isn't there yet. That comes with time. Some holes were getting opened pretty well for Sellers and Betts at times against the Jets, and they took advantage. But those are holes that Portis can turn into 12 yard gains instead of the 6 yard gains that Sellers and Betts were ripping off. The offense will take some time to get in sync fully.

Ugh. Already wanting to think way too much into preseason stats. Griffin went down. Williams starts putting people on islands to see how they react. Also, it was yet another trick play in PRESEASON by a shitty team. I honestly think it almost surprises our guys that someone is flaming enough to run one then. Aside from that, the defense played fairly lights out. Lots of good pass D and fairly good run D, even after Griffin went down.

Way to come in and try to stir the pot. Just like was mentioned above, come back when the games matter.
