We've faced several bottom dwelling offenses with a common theme - weakness up front.Ā Ā The Ravens present a bit of a step up.Ā But the good news is, the defenses that have had the most success against them structure a lot of what they do based on 5 man rushes.Ā Something Schwartz has been favoring the last 3 weeks.Ā Ā Only drawback is that you can't just scream into gaps now, with Lamar you have to be mindful of him taking off in a heartbeat.Ā Ā Ā But the matchup on paper, both the Browns offense AND defense, likely makes them early favorites. No doubt we will have to have somebody a good portion of the time acting as a spy on Jackson.Ā That or the ends will have to subdue a bit and play some contain of the edge.

What I see is a D that is now good enough to constantly apply pressure from the entire front 7 and rotate very good 2nd stringers so everyone stays fresh the entire game. Jackson will be forced into turnovers & throwaways IMO. We shall see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Innovative and proactive would be an understatement. Good Morning Football still talking about it as I type. deserving post to get back on topic.. Mid November of last season the fins put up almost 40 on us (39) in Miami. They've only added a real rushing attack & a few tweaks to same WR's routes from what I'm seeing. Let's not forget Waddle ain't slow either & Tua is putting the ball on theĀ š°Ā I thought the master of defense Bill Belicheck, showed Denver how to play against the fins offense only losing at home 24-17 the week prior. I'll be betting on the Bills defensive HC Sean McDermott to use some of Belicheck's ideas to slow this offensive train down with better defensive talent than the effort-less donkeys showed..Ā Fins still have to play a Eagles,Cowboys,KC, both NY's, Bills(2) & Pats defense coming..

If the DB's don't give him good targets and we apply pressure, that is the ticket, and this D can do that a good amount of the time.Ā I don't buy it when people say Jackson can't throw.Ā I do agree he isn't the best at hitting tight windows, especially under duress.Ā Keep the guy sweating.Ā We may or may not get the sacks, but we stand a good chance at having a shot at a few picks if the pressure gets him chucking the ball two feetĀ high or wide to either side. Ā I think we have a very good chance if we can limit rushing yards, no matter who runs the ball AND don't allow Andrews to go nuts on us.Ā I think Schwartz will have a very specific plan on how to deal with Andrews.Ā At least I hope so.
