Clancy coverage alive and well

I still see our CB's 10 even a few times FIFTEEN yards off the receiver. Its an easy 5-8 yard gain that we have given up alot already this year. We have the guys that can press so lets use it.

With the pressure we get it will work more times than we get beat.

DRC is still learning. Couple of times he tried he got beaten for much more. I think eventually he will get there. I think McFadden did play tight.

Garrard threw for more yards, as many TDs and only one fewer completion than Warner and Garrard is no Warner and doesn't have close to the talent at WR that Kurt does.

He was probably one dropped pass from going over 300 yards for only the 3rd time in his last 30 games. More evidence of what we already know. The Cards must improve their pass defense if they are ever going to be a consistent winner.

...but, he also threw the ball 43 times, which means he was just barely over 50% completion percentage. How about some praise for the defense in keeping him in check for 20 incomplete passes?

The cushion is partially a symptom of what the team does with the safeties.
Not enough help over the top so they get a bigger space to keep the play in front of them.

No praise for anybody. Our guys only play hard when people bash them and play like idiots when things get too good. So nothing but criticism from me for the rest of the year.

 

[Black Jesus]

With how much we blitz Adrian Wilson, basically playing 1 safety, the corners HAVE to play off.

Unfortunately that just maybe the truth.

Did the Defense hold down MJD after that big run he had? yes

that has nothing 2 do with our putrid pass defense.

Exactly. With AW playing in the box so much there's no help for the db's. I am really liking the D this year. I'd rather give up the 8 yard play with the possibility of AW getting a sack or blowing up a run than playing press, getting no pressure and still giving up a pass b/c nobody got to the QB.

Hopefully, with CC becoming a disruptive force, we'll have the best of both worlds and rush 4 and drop AW. I'd love to see him get the 20-20 this year.
