[QUOTE="pizzle, post: 723878, member: 12428"] We're playing the Bengals-up 38-28 on them with 7 mins left in the game. They're in 10 personnel. Their WRs are A.J. Green (6'4'' All-Pro) Brandon LaFell (big, sneaky fast 6'2'' guy) rookies John Ross (aka Mr. 4.22) and Josh Malone (6'3'' w/4.4 speed). Oh, as a kicker-the lone back is Joe Mixon-a GREAT receiving RB. I would assume that bracketing Green is a no-brainer in this situation. You'd next prolly want HHCD deep as your last line of defense as a definite. But doing that could take away from some of the things you might want to be able to call if you're Dom, especially if you're also worried about Mixon carving you up on angle/choice/streak routes either out of the backfield or motioning out of the backfield altogether. What if LaFell/Malone is hot, and Dalton is just throwing away from HHCD as much as possible, so him being used as a safety over-the-top on A.J. is what they want to get single coverage for the #2/#3 WR? How do you double Green and Ross if you are worried about the speed merchant just as much on certain formations without leaving your defense very vulnerable elsewhere? You might want to have 2 deep safeties AND still have some DBs underneath to handle screens and quick-hitters. You're gonna need your "tall corners" to match up with Cincinnati's size AND guys to handle the slot vs Ross and/or Mixon. It would also help to have at least one middle defender closer to the LOS in order to make up for any mistakes/misses in assignment/technique that leave a receiver open, especially if GB was running man. A clean-up guy before you even get to HHCD, if you will. So, you SURE there wouldn't EVER be a scenario where we could put 8 DBs out on the field? Cuz I see some with the schedule we have... [/QUOTE]
