All season and going back to last year, our d comes out in a read and react mindstet, gets the crapped kick out of them and then beaten dog syndrome kicks in. It is insane to keep trying the same tactics with this group of players.
Why not for once, this week....being the freaking house on D to start the game. Blitz, stunt, press, whatever, go man and be aggressive see if you can get a big hit a turnover something and change the mindset of the D.
Starting the game off with another 12 play plus drive is just a recipe for more kicked dog syndrome. Their confidence will be shot in the first drive...game over if they don’t do something different.
