Title: We can't consistantly beat teams like New England until... Post by: BigDaddyFin on December 26, 2011, 11:09:12 am we can come up with a better way to match up with their spread.
What's unique about New England's version of it is that they run it with two TE's. This creates a new kind of matchup problem. Yes we showed in the first half we could get pressure on Brady, and that's a huge part of beating them consistanly. We don't have enough DB's who can cover those guys. The TE's present the problem in that they're too tall to match up with the average CB and they're too fast for the Safetys. We need a couple tall corners who can stay with those guys and if it were me, I'd stay in the Nickel most of the game so that when they went to the no-huddle we don't end up with Burnett covering WR's Title: Re: We can't consistantly beat teams like New England until...

What you need on defense to stop their offense this year, maybe your downfall against their offense in 2013.
