He felt we will just put a ton of pressure packages with Hendrickson and Sam and hope Maholms gets frustrated and starts making bad decisions, but he sees us coming after him with Hilton off the edge.
I agree, but I do think we will test Maholmes early to see where he's at with his mobility.
What are your Thoughts?
I keep him in the pocket and don't let him get comfortable which is exactly what he does when he breaks contain.I think they can put pressure on him with 3-4 guys. Keep my back 7 back there and keep everything in front of them. I've never watched Maholmes in all his years just beat a team staying in the pocket. He's not even use to making some of those deeper out throws/angular throws, etc. as he is when he's on the run making broken plays.
