[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 573289"] Note the 8 men in the box, with the 4 second level guys taking two steps forward on the play fake and the middle backers a couple of beats slow dropping in coverage. I could be mistaken, but that looks like 4 LBs with the 4 DL. This is run sell-out against the full house backfield. The zone seam was wide open because 58 was late and did not get a deep enough drop and his head around. This is the classic weakness of the cover 2...the ILB is under pressure to cover a lot of ground. Also, if anybody was wondering why Chris Conte is still playing football it is because cover 2 needs a hard hitting safety for an intimidation factor in order to make receivers not want to make plays in the area of weakness in the middle intermediate zone. For Aaron Rodgers, this is shooting fish in a barrel against that personnel. So the idea that Rodgers can't beat cover 2 is not entirely accurate. Where he has problems is when teams get run penetration with 3 or 4, collapse the pocket with 4, and where physical, fast and instinctual ILBs (e.g., Willis and Wagner) see no particular need to sell out on the run and can control the the middle of the field. Everybody has trouble beating a strong cover 2 loaded with talent...Seattle, SF in past years. In order to beat them it starts at the line of scrimmage...open holes, get the running game going, and get the LBs to respect the run. If Lacy can't get it going against talented fronts and the passing game stalls as a result, put the blame where it is due...the run blocking gets whipped. We don't have to play Seattle every week. Then again, we don't get to play against this Bears front 7 sans Allen every week either. [/QUOTE]
