Make the QB hold the ball an extra second or two while those receivers get off their jams. make the Qb fit the ball over the corner but under the safeties. JFC i cant believe that we saw what we saw on sunday, its just beyond me how a so called defensive great like Zimmer could have thought that was the best approach to that situation. We had 8 guys in coverage on that final play... for the love of God, how does that happen?
No D can win if the mindset is to play off 7/8 yds and try and react as the Wr/Rb comes at you at a full head of steam and then make a split second decision is he going inside or out. This bullsheet of not playing up and jamming your man and going with him to re route the play is ridiculous.
