Dragonborn10 Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Blitz Brady mercillesly...If Jason Campbell and this bunch of castoff WR's can carve up your secondary, Brady may throw for 500 yards by the end of the third quarter. The only way to stop him on defense is a pass rush. Send everyone... Send odd man overload blitz packages. Hold and tackle their TE's at the ling of scrimmage - yes that is cheating. Don't let Kelsay ever drop into coverage. And if at all possible have Aaron Schobel wear Arrington's jersey... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from being a great decision maker and experienced vet, he usually gets the ball out so quick that blitzing him accomplshes little but weakinging your zones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubes Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Blitz Brady and he'll pick you apart. For that matter, do whatever you want against Brady and he'll pick you apart. I have no idea how you slow them down, other than some vague notion of "get pressure on him". He walked 99 yards down the field against San Diego like he was playing against a high school team.

He's going to kill you if he has time. Do you think a great decison maker won't find someone open even if you drop 7 or 8? There will always be someone open. Only way to beat Brady and Manning is by beating their offensive line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you think Belicheat would do to beat Brady? Once they took away the ability to mug the WR's downfield the only thing left is the blitz.

Offside Number 76 Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 That might not be such a bad idea... Except they'll do the same thing on our next drive, and you can take that to the bank. And Mallett will beat Thigpen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on board with attacking their OLine, but I don't necessarily believe regularly sending 5-6 guys at him all the time is the best way to go about. I think you can run a lot of twists and stunts because you're no necessarily afraid of their ground game and also run a bunch of overloads and zone dawgs to cause confusion about where the [pressure is going to come from. The biggest key might be just keeping the ball out of his hands, and that's up to the Amish Rifle and the Bills OLine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, pretty much. The best thing I can think of is to bring back McGee to cheapshot Brady to take him out of the game. If nothing is going to work, I'm going to go with the option that seeing Brady with his face in the dirt, taking hard shots. And not because he's hired a male prostitute.

Rubes, How to Handle Brady, The Blueprint Jets at Pats, 2010 playoffs 1) pressure 2) take away the stuff across the middle Unfortunately I don't think our 2ndary or LB are up to the job the Jets did so we have to figure something else out.

billsfan714 Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 I agree, blitz him and get some hits on him. The one team that beats the Pats is the Jets and they bring the heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silvermike Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 I think we need to go very aggressively against Tom Brady, just because we're not going to win in anything other than a high-risk set. Base defense, we're goign to give up touchdowns. The way to win is to blitz, jump balls for interceptions, and hope you get lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
