Aston Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Good post, but I would like to point out...that our biggest problem at stopping the run last year was failure to tackle. Watch alot of those games, and we had the runner in the backfield ALOT of times, so I wouldn't put blame on the schemes GW came up with. I blame the inability of the players to finish, and make the tackle. Whether that be GW's fault, or the players fault remains to be seen, but his schemes were fine IMO...at least against the run.YES!!!!I couldn't agree more. We tackled like freaking pansies from pre season until the year was pretty much over with. And when did it start to turn around? The week Gibbs announced they would start doing full contact practices with full pads. I expect Joe will take this philosophy into mini camp. It will be long, hard and grueling. And this time, no one's going to ***** about it. Result: 2004's defense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiefPowhatan17 Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Sounds pretty legitamate, but I wouldn't put Marshall out to pasture yet. He wasn't the problem on the defense. It was Holdman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
