MikePJ76 Posted October 6 Posted October 6 I thought this was interesting today. Sal made a good point so I put the two clips together with the play they are talking about. I wonder if McDermott was talking about Jackson or if it was someone else....honestly who else though? This must be Sean's way of calling out young players. Quick note for those of you who are so far advanced in your football knowledge as opposed us fat losers living in our mom's basement playing maddenwho don't watch the nfl, you already knew about this play and what happened right so spare me your personal insults. 11 4 Quote

fasteddie Posted October 6 Posted October 6 It seemed like lots of players were not doing their job yesterday. Hopefully they get it straightened out by next Monday. 1 Quote

phxbacker Posted October 6 Posted October 6 I saw him get his legs cut out from under him. Two steps and on the ground basically. Quote
boyst Posted October 6 Posted October 6 How hard is it to play defense on this defense? Why is it rocket surgery? 7 5 1 1 Quote
ticketssince61 Posted October 6 Posted October 6 Why do you design a play to cause maye to go to his strong right side? Against a rookie playing his 1st snaps Why not force him to his weaker left side 4 2 2 Quote

Yeah, McDermott can blame whomever he wants, but the fact of the matter is that the same flaws we're seeing this season were issues in past years with completely different rosters and coordinators. He's the common denominator. 17 1 6 2 4 Quote

If jackson stayed home he probably forces maye to throw it away or try and run. bummer because it was a big play 2 Quote

Just now, T.E. said: Yeah, McDermott can blame whomever he wants, but the fact of the matter is that the same flaws we're seeing this season were issues in past years with completely different rosters and coordinators. He's the common denominator. A coach can either: Coach to his players and talent Coach his players and his talent McDermott is doing square pegs to round holes and expecting triangles. @Coach Tuesdaysaid it "The entire offensive structure is designed to protect the defense from having to be on the field. The entire draft and free agent approach is designed to protect the defense." This defense isn't getting the results it need time and time again. 2 minutes ago, MikePJ76 said: Seems like it would have worked perfectly if Jackson stayed where he was supposed to be though. benford is blitzing and he is coming fast and the interior closed the middle down.

Low Positive Posted October 6 Posted October 6 Actually, to play Madden well, you have to read defenses and call audibles and hot routes based on coverages. You also have to shift protection to account for incoming blitzers. 2 Quote
thenorthremembers Posted October 6 Posted October 6 I know the game pretty well. That said, I had no clue Landon Jackson was even up for the game. So I guess theres that,. 1 5 Quote

Then I'm having to go with it's a coaching problem. If his one job is to stay and contain how could he drop off in coverage... something doesn't smell right with that answer, there is no way a player can go that rogue out there without someone saying do this. 2 Quote

So I guess theres that,. and Landon is ***** up his job, blowing contain. And giving up a big play. Contain is 101. What the heck Landon? Don't let mental mistakes cost you your Jersey. Hoech and Larry O are returning soon, and roster spots must be made. Make it happen Landon Quote
