Absolutely agree. And no I am not Pete. Pete brute forced his wins with no adjustments. We see two completely different offenses between first and second half!
It’s called rope-a-dope
The defense was fun to watch
I think our defense breaks the other teams will. Then we come out second half with a special teams score and it was game over. Any time this team jumps out to a lead it’s game over
It’s the defensive and special teams score scores that put us ahead and then it’s over. This defense is amazing and all Sam has to do is be smart, play field position and take points and whatever is givenI wouldn't say it's a strategy they use game after game. Remember we had a couple of games that we were up 3 scores by halftime and people complained we didn't play hard enough in the 2d half.
The first couple of series are often about testing what the defense is giving up and determining how they will be attacking. If the scripted plays get you some scores, great, but the important thing is feeling out what works and what doesn't. With our D, most of the time the offense has some time to do all that.
Maybe playing like shyt is not a strategy but i don’t mind playing conservative with this defense
That is what I am saying. Of course you are not going to play like shit, but you play conservative knowing your defense keeps you in the game (and perhaps to protect the qb if - and notice i said if, because i only watch from the outside - you feel he gets rattled. Then you study the tendency of the defense and you adjust and decide what will work best and pick the best strategy and then open up the book with the particular plays that will work best.
