Oh hell no. They have three tight ends that all play well. They'd rush for 200 if we play nickel all game.  


I think they need to go big nickel with a S as the nickel back, not a CB. The Bills need as much speed on the field as possible while still being able to slow Ingram.

 

The Niners did a very good job of slowing them in the 2nd half, I’ll be interested in what the tape shows they did. It appeared they were much more disciplined in their edge contain and stopped biting hard on every handoff/fake to Ingram.

Yeah, I really thought the rain would give the 49ers an advantage.  Anyone know if snow is in the forecast for next week?

Too early to really know...snow doesn't have much of an effect unless its really heavy

San Francisco gained lots of yardage on the ground when they ran outside.  They didn't much try to run inside where the Ravens have a pair of short 330-340 lb DTs and a 300 lb defensive end.   Baltimore played good, not great defense, but Garappolo completed a high percentage of his passes even though he didn't have a big day yardage wise.  Baltimore's Mark Ingram had several solid carries, but San Francisco stuffed him enough that his total yards and YPC were not very impressive.  Lamar Jackson had just over 100 yards on the ground.  Most of those were outside.  A spy on Jackson may work, but gap discipline is of paramount importance, otherwise Mark Ingram is going to get first downs all day long.  It was the tight ends who did the most damage receiving for Baltimore.  Mark Andrews had 50 yards on 3 receptions and Hayden Hurst chipped in another 21.  Jackson only had 30 yards passing that wasn't to his tight ends

Stopping that Ravens run game is going to be tough. That pre-snap motion is going to be a problem.

 

might need to ignore it and play lots of zone.

I can't see a spy working, patriots got smashed doing that.

 

We play a base zone so we will probably stick with that and use a 7 man front instead of our usual 6. Probably due some 8 man fronts too.

Gonna need Edmund's and Milano up at line of scrimmage a lot.  Hughes and Lawson stay at home and bring the pressure up the middle. 

 

Jackson will just run outside, need push the pocket and close in from the outside, basically close the pocket around him.

That's why I'm saying DEs need to hold the edge.  Dont even pressure from outside.  This is how they use to stop Vick.  DEs just occupy blockers but hold the edge and you bring pressure up middle.

I think the Ravens game will be one where you bench Murphy and play Lorax at DE, if possible.  Use a nickel DB rather than a third LB.  Have Milano and the nickel DB spy Lamar, especially on the outside edges.  Rely on Edmunds and the DTs to stop anything inside.  I don't think taking their TE or Ingraham away exclusively will work; if you're going to take anyone away from Baltimore, it will have to be Lamar's rushing ability.  Have to make him be a passer.

 

Benching Murphy will let them really them run.

Can you imagine how brutal it would be if Allen threw for 105 yards??

 

Just win

totally agree, we're are dead if we stay in our nickel.

Benching Murphy is the best thing you can do if you want to stop the run.  He's terrible at rush D.

Lamar rarely runs A/B gap. Keep your Lb's wide and your DE's must contain C/D gap. You can score on the Ravens defense. 

DE maintain outside edge and Edmunds work the middle. Milano and whatever safety needs to spy has to catch Jackson.
I rarely watch other games but wanted to get a look at Ravens and two of the best running games in the League.
Ravens with whoever their O coordinator is (lol) are doing a hell of a job running great plays and blocking, executing up front and on the edges.

 was a great game

 and who said the running game is going away, rain or no rain.

Bills have their hands full

 

Go Bills
