Should the Ravens be AFC favorites?
Lamar Jackson & company have faced 3 opponents above 500 this season and won by a combined score of 103-12. Their sensational run game fuels an offense that’s not reliant on Jackson putting up jaw-dropping numbers. What’s their ceiling?
Why have the Vikings regressed this year?
Even in their first win, Kirk Cousins and the offense looked one dimensional. Outside of Justin Jefferson, only one player had 3 targets and no one eclipsed 2 receptions. Can rookie Jordan Addison be a WR2 and lift them to the playoffs?
How did CJ Stroud & company put up 37 against the Jags?
In week 1, the rookie QB took 5 sacks as he tried to extend plays on the run. Against Jacksonville, he held the ball for an average of 2.9 seconds as he made confident throws in the pocket. Has he surprised you this season?
How did Arizona plan for Micah Parsons and a bruising Dallas pass-rush?
The Cardinals broke off several long runs by anticipating and reacting to Parson’s initial step. Once he established his path to the QB, the blocker used his momentum against him to force him out of the play.
Shanahan vs. McVay Chess Match ♟️
First, we see stacked coverage up top into a Nickel Fire Zone to pressure Stafford. Then, the 49ers fake a similar scheme to confuse the Rams. Once McVay counters with quick routes over the middle, the Niners drop their LB’s to force a turnover.
Justin Fields tied the league lead for sacks last year at 55. After two weeks, he’s taken 10 sacks which would put him on track for 85 this season. His continued trend of indecisiveness, especially against zone, should make Bears fans concerned with his contract year looming.
How did Browns new DC Jim Schwartz freeze Joe Burrow’s passing attack? Here we see a Cover 2 pre snap before McLeod Jr. comes down to the middle of the field in a Cover 1 Robber. Although Delpit makes the play, this shows how Schwartz sugars his coverages to confuse opposing QB’s
Jordan Love had a promising debut. On this first play, he recognizes the zone and looks the defense off before returning to the center of the end zone. Then, he identifies a 1-1 matchup for his RB on the LB and delivers a bullet. Can’t wait to watch him ball out this season
Dan Campbell and the Lions were employing Aiden Hutchinson at the BUCK position last night. At times, they had him rushing the QB in a 3-4 but also dropped him back into coverage out of a 4-3. Awesome way to utilize the best athlete on the field and confuse an MVP quarterback.
