"I think you look at that game there were a couple of guys on their team throwing up while we were driving, so itll be interesting to see for four quarters if those d-lines can hold up against our tempo and the way we want to move the ball down the field"

"Whenever youre in an offense where you dont huddle, and dont have to huddle, and youre always on the ball, that creates a sense of chaos for the defense so theyre running around trying to get the right personnel on the field"

Will be an interesting test for our communication on defense. forcing us to simplify might even end up being a good thing, honestly. it could be an good chess match for us though. Edited by NoSaint

A hurry-up offense is always a double edged sword.

 

If they stay on the field and sustain, it could make the opponents defense sick.

 

If they go 3 and out a lot or hurridly make mistakes, it could make their own defense sick (from not getting any breather) especially if the opponents offense takes a ball control, stay on the field and sustain drives mentality.

 

But yeah, it was an Achilles heal for us last year with a lot of teams trying to exploit the complexity/communication of Rex's D

He's mentioned quite often down here and not in a positive light. The whole defense is apparently already mumbling under their breaths regarding the WIDE 9 they are running. It puts tremendous amount of strain on your LBers and Miami is very deficient at that position.

but......I thought Miami's D was PERFECT for Mario?

its august still....

 

schematically its a good fit. its also pretty basic for him in terms of assignments so its not like killing himself in preseason is highly beneficial.

Anyone notice just how bad Mario Williams looked this past week?

Remember all those dominant Bruce Smith preseason games? Oh wait, he faked injuries and skipped camp most of the time.

 

For long term vets with their spots secured, preseason is just something you hope to get out of without an injury.

Good post. I hate when teams say they are going to be a strictly hurry up team. It's stupid. I think you need to switch up the tempo at various times through the game.

Not when you are on a new team, new system and are coming of a year remembered for basically quitting on your team mates. I respectfully disagree.

And their defensive backfield stinks too, right?

No one will give 2 craps about preseason game 2 once the regular season starts.

 

And no player in Miami probably even remembers what happen to Mario in Buffalo. Players don't care as much as media or fans do.

it doesnt sound like its a new system for him. and i dont think he cares what fans think of him.

 

if he shows up in september itll be a total non-story though. if i was the GM i might be a little anxious about that, but if he was playing 110% and like it was the super bowl i might be even more worried in august.
