Re: CHFF: ‘Rex Ryan D’ exposed by CHFF Friday, ‘Fins Monday
I thought the article was very misleading.
There was no mention of hurry-up or QB hits/knock downs.
Also, the author compliments their excellent pass defense (5th), but fails to acknowledge any connectionc between that and their blitzing.
He says that pressure without sacks isn't valuable because it hasn't resulted in a lot of interceptions. No? Ok, how about an increase in incompletions because of poorly thrown balls? Everyone knows that the more pressure you get up front, the less your dbs get victimized.
While he brings up some good points about the MIA game, I can't get over his inability to connect the dots between the massive blitzing and the excellent pass defense.
He also didn't emphasize that MIA has a very good run offense and that played a key part in the Jet's demise. He stresses only the inability of the Jets defense to stop the run. Let's face it, not every team can run the ball as effectively as MIA, our team included.
