And it is getting a 5 yard completion on 3rd and 10 that is chickenshit. It is never blitzing and letting a QB have all day to throw and playing your defensive backs deep as to avoid anything over the top but give up the underneath that is chickenshit.
You know it man, all of this is playing conservative and playing not to lose.
Don't have to throw bombs all day as Fred alluded to. Just try to get the first downs instead of throwing Screens to the backs
or underneath routes that the Defense sees coming. Dalton needs time but when he has just a bit he is the best Slot route
passer in the league. These are 15 to 20 yard routes that we could just feast on teams with.
You have to gamble a bit on Defense as well and blitz sometimes, so true.

Thank God Paulie G is gone, this drove me nutz.
Need to stop the soft coverage with the DB's as well and use less zone and more man to man.
Pretty much all of our CB's are man to man Corners, use them as such atleast most of the time.
