Re: So what do the Packers need to do to get this turned aro
I went back and watched the play. Little was definitely near the line of scrimmage probably keyed on Dilfer in case of a rollout, or up there to provide run support for somethign outside. Manning (54) was definitely responsible for the TE but bit on the play fake and lost his coverage on the TE. That is pretty much his only responsibility on that play and mucked it up BAD. Barnett bit on the fake too but he never would have got over in time anyway.
To me, it looks like Little did his job correctly. I'm not a coach so I can't say for sure.
TOPackerFan said:ORRELSE, it looked to me like Little charged through the line well after the play fake when it was quite obvious that the play was not a run, given that there was no RB anywhere near Dilfer. Based on that, I thought Little was wrong to go after Dilfer when Kampman already had containment on him and that Little should have dropped back into coverage. I could be wrong about the timing, but that was what the play looked like to me.
