By the way, the Tsunamis blew out the Gangsters (the Tsunamis partially boosted), which puts us in a 3-way tie for first.

Okay... I'm in now (finally), so if you should shoot me PMs on the game, I'd appreciate it.

The 3WR singleback blitz is that double weakside LB blitz that I copied from the Gangsters (or Bucks, can't remember which), if the Tetris dudes beat us on that, that's pretty clever of them, but we really don't do that against good teams. (I usually remove the double LB blitz % except for running downs.)

I'll be interested to see what kind of blitzes came off during this game.

That's pretty cool that the Tsunamis beat the Gangsters, as I was pretty sure it would go the other way.

I'm (unfortunately) at work today, so won't have much time to gameplan between now and the next game.

PMs sent.

Thanks Gyuri. I'm guessing that J Charlie's sack (if I'm reading the stats right) came on a 3WR singleback as well.

Good, easy win though.

I believe so, and I think blitzing him from weakside shift is a good idea, but the MLB probably needs to be in coverage on the HB.

Any word on the deal yet?

Wallace got a sack out of the same set as well. Started out in double coverage on WR3 but went straight for the kill.

Matej,

Nope, still up in the air.

GY: Cool. That sounds like one of our CB blitz packages (like Neon L got last game).

Has anybody noticed if our CB2 blitz worked against the strong I?

It hasn't. Our successful CB blitzes have been CB3. On one of our CB2 blitzes, in fact, it looked like the LB was pressed into man coverage on a WR, which is not a great situation.

Any idea on how Steve D'Abril got so few plays relatively?

JtS, I have no idea. That's very strange, as we didn't change anything from the last game with respect to the depth chart or energy settings for our o-line. I'll change the energy settings slightly for our next game to see if that helps.

Matej,

I think D'Abril should be higher up in our KRS DC, as I don't think he's even coming in much in those circumstances.

Hmmm... If the CB2 is blitzing from the nickel, it should have dragged CB3 to that side to man up on the 2nd WR. If it isn't happening, I'm not sure what that's all about.

The KRS was switched to the defensive players to try and get them more plays against the cupcakes, but in reality, it has been the offense that has lost plays against the cupcakes this season. (Because we've been scoring with first passes from scrimmage.)

Otherwise, the new ROT has naturally caused both Bob Bob's and D'abril's snaps to be reduced.

I just went back and looked, and it was my mistake. It was the defense against the weak I that left a LB standing in front of the WR, but that's fine until the extra plays are added to that formation.

So did the CB2 Blitz run against the off-tackle at all? (Not that you have to look at everything again, it's just something I need to look at.)

I only remember seeing it against a pass play from the Strong I.
