[QUOTE="Heyjoe4, post: 1034460, member: 13032"] You describe what was so frustrating about Barry. Even on 3rd and long, the CBs would back up, back up right to the first down marker. Passes underneath were like handoffs and the result would be 1) a first down or 2) 4th and less than 1 yard or 2 - and teams go for it on that down and distance now. There's certainly risk in playing man. If a receiver breaks coverage and gets behind the CB then he's gonna get some yards. But chucking a receiver at the line, to your point, disrupts rhythm - for the receiver and the QB - and makes a second, third read more likely. Add a blitz here and there and it's a completely different D and a different outcome, as in more TOs. Barry was always willing to bend but not break, until the D broke, usually in the red zone, inside the 10. I'm looking forward to a more aggressive style of play - and now that the D has more speed and experience at S - that should be possible and successful. [/QUOTE]
