Green Bay's pass defense


1989

Recommended Posts

...they gave up 419 yards through the air last week. Another big game from Cam and Smitty?

If we can effectively pass on them like we did against Arizona and like New Orleans did to Green Bay- with a good rushing game and a slightly improved defense we could win this one and shock the world.

Here's to hoping!

Go Panthers...cant wait till Sunday!

We'll be facing a whole nother level of defensive play. Let's hope the O line is ready to give Cam the opportunity to make a play. RBs need to pick up the blitz well too. *crosses fingers*

all the more reason Stewart and LaFell should see more time on the field.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Green Bay back off the blitz and rush 3 while putting 8 in coverage baiting Newton to run or throw into an interception. They will likely blitz somewhat but given how well Newton did against Arizona, I am not sure the all out blitz is a good idea. Even in collge, Newton was better when teams blitzed than when they didn't. If it were me I would play zone and make him fit the ball in tight windows and keep everything in front of me.

Skip Bayless said something on ESPN today that made sense in that Arizona basically provided teams a blueprint for how not to defend Cam. He said teams will look at that tape and decide to not blitz, but rather drop more guys into coverage and make him read the defense.

However, if that happens out run game is going to have a chance to do very well. Nice to finally have a QB who defenses have to account for.

    • I went on a solo elk hunt in the Flat Tops. It was awesomely miserable. LOL It was a late season hunt, I think third season and it was forecasted to snap off cold with highs in the upper thirties and lows in the single digits. fug it, I'm going anyway. They were wrong. The highs were in the low 20s and the lows were in the negative teens. I shivered so hard the first night I thought my teeth were going to break. It was the only time I've ever been legit concerned that I might be in trouble. Crawled out of my sleeping bag and got a fire started and suffered through the night bundled up next to the fire. I slept the next two nights literally wearing every stitch of clothing I'd brought with Nalgenes full of near boiling water in the bottom of my sleeping bag. That was the only way to have non-frozen water in the morning anyway. There was about a foot of snow on the ground and the melt/freeze crust was almost enough to support your weight but you'd go crashing through just as you went or make your step. It was exhausting travel and every step sounded like a rifle shot. Hunting was basically impossible. I never saw an elk in those four days, only saw 5-6 deer. LOL It was brutal but I loved it. Absolutely beautiful country that is never been to before and haven't been back since. I needed that four day complete break from society fighting for my life against the elements. I'm weird like that.
    • The lack of production is especially surprising given how much effort the team put into coaxing the best from him.  In just six short years he’s had the opportunity to work with 3 different GMs, 7 different head coaches and 10 different starting quarterbacks.  There’s literally no excuse to be made that one of those combos didn’t work.  It might be time to look withIAN.
