Watching the game last night my eye was on this guy. He seems to be
perhaps the key to the Colts D. Give credit to this player he is an
awesome saftey ... wish we had him.
He sits back there ... free to roam and determines quickly if it's run or pass.
On Run he follows the ball and with his speed and illusiveness he gets to
the ball often before the RB crosses the LOS and even if the play is away
from him.
If he sees it is Pass he drops in coverage or comes up to cover the short
wing receiver.
His tackling is excellent and I haven't seen anyone juke him.
It seems if you can take away Sanders out the play then the Colts D just
wouldn't be as effective.
How do you do this? Always insure someone is sent to block him?
On run do you send a WR like Welker to block him?
Thoughts?
