Yes, middle of Nov in beautiful downtown Largo.

I was pretty pleased with the way the WTF played against the Bucs. I would have liked to win but we gave them their toughest game in the playoffs. You and I agree that the way to beat Brady is to make him uncomfortable in the pocket.

"beautiful downtown Largo", now that's funny!!!

we gave the bucs a run for the money . we didnt have enough horses

I think folks are getting too caught up in the name "buffalo nickel." The nickel part tells the story. The Redskins are running a 4-2-5 when they have a third safety in.

Bullock is correct in that the Redskins ran a lot of zone last year and they ran better than zone defense in a long time. Curl was a big part of that but so were the safety's. Early in the year the WTF were using a lot of single high safety and Apke was not reading the play well. That was where the D was sucking.

Secondly the WTF did not have good cover LBers ... not new news. It didn't matter if they were in zone or man. They just were not good.

If you can get a safety that can play a hybrid LBer .... like Craven was supposed to play. You need a guy that can drop back but can also hold up in the run because he is likely going to get blocked by a TE.

Long story short it is not a magical position unless you have a very good player there. You still walk up the SS when you can to play the run or at times blitz. The real trick in defense is trying to make the QB confused when he looks over the D. The reason the D didn't look so good in the playoffs is Tom Brady knew what they were doing.

well i have posted about it because some people might not know what it is and what it does .. and having you break it down for us/them is a huge plus . thanks buddy

All good .. just trying to make it sound more simple than sounding like they invented a new defense. Thanks for sharing it.

Washington Football Team has flexibility in the secondary in 2021

The Washington Football Team has completely overhauled its roster over the past few seasons. One of the most improved areas is the defensive backfield.

we might actually have position flex and depth to absorb some injuries . a huge plus . and add to it we can go man and zone fairly well only helps
