How long until this board realizes Guenther road Zimmera coat tails
#39
Gunther plays way more zone and blitzes way more predictably than Zimmer did. Also Gunther LOVES to go full coverage and only rush 3 or 4. Zimmer put MJ and Dunlap in pass defense every once in a while but Gunther seems to think his defensive lineman are cornerbacks.

Zimmer could go 2man under one play and then send 7 or 8 at the QB the next play. Gunther is usually ALWAYS gonna only send 5 when he does blitz. And his blitz is usually gonna come at a point where a knowledgable fan at home could predict it. I called 2 or 3 blitzes out in the 2 quarters I could stomach to watch.

Both DC's rely heavily on their linebackers to cover the middle and corners to cover the outside WRs with no help. I don't think you can blame Shawn William's play on Gunther. Reggie Nelson is the better football player so naturally you have to expect him to
do better. Also Zim didn't have any reservations about blitzing a safety. Nelson came in a lot and killed QBs. Seems like Gunther is scared to death to blitz Shawn Williams
