collapsing pocket

[tennesseeboy]

From the D&C today

 

A few players later, with Ryan Fitzpatrick at quarterback, the defensive line was able to quickly collapse the pocket and force Fitzpatrick into an off-balance throw that was intercepted by Bryan Scott.

 

The article seems quite optimistic about the new 3-4 defense and how its progressing though.

For the first time in Bills training camp one side of the ball clearly outplayed the other as Buffalo’s defense completely thwarted the offense’s passing attack in Wednesday night’s practice. Pass coverage was sound for the most part, which only enhanced the effectiveness of the unit’s pass rush as quarterbacks were often flushed out of the pocket and forced to throw on the run.

I'm okay with this. The harder the offense has to work in camp, the better prepared they'll be for game time.

- defense is always ahead of the offense early during camp and when new systems are rolled out

- this is essentially the same offense that struggled badly with the 3-4 and they are just starting full speed pads-on practice against it

- as camp goes on and the offense grasps chans system and how it matches to the 3-4 they will catch up

- the three young oline starters should improve quite a bit and overall the unit should be average (a big improvement) by the opener

- if/when oline injuries happen we are screwed

 

thus the official guaranteed-to-happen© mh prediction remains a middle of the pack offense and a terrible run defense that spoils a good dbackfield

 

four wins

We might have one of the best secondaries so I cannot see how this won't help the offense in passing.

It actually seems like the mindset Trent Edwards is taking, and the harder it is for the offense to move the ball, the better the defense must be doing.

 

As already been posted, its no easy task to throw the football when facing the Bills secondary ( I agree Skoobydum, one of the best in the NFL) and chances are you are going to get picked off, so if you're a Bills QB you might as well get used to it because its going to happen , get over it, get on with it,

 

 

and get better...
