“They were playing it soft, especially early. It opened up a lot of lanes.
He's obviously not calling the players soft but part of their schemeHashtag thepowderblues

Originally posted by Formula Two One View PostI saw posters bitching about the NT play this game. Carrethers got 5 tackles, 1 TFL. I watched Carrethers a lot and saw him have great push and get in the backfield a lot. I watched him push the C back into the QB on one play. (It may have been a sack because Smith couldn't step up in the pocket.) It's nice to see this confirmation that Carethers is coming along at a difficult position. 5 tackles (per ESPN) in 13 plays, not bad.Adipose

Originally posted by Steve View PostI thought we played OK at the point of attack. If that was the only issue, we would have won hands down. But we had issues because the offense got the ball out into space, then we couldn't get the KC ball carriers down.
JJ points out that most of the tackling issues were people overrunning the plays, and not playing with the correct leverage to use the help of the guys around them. Most of the missed tackles were out in space, how the hell is a NT going to help make tackles in space?
We need to get good playing the screens in space, because Manning loves those, and I can't see him backing off until he gets them up by a bunch. We are not a good bubble screen D, and this is the game where we are going to put it to the test. Denver might be the best bubble screen team of all time.sigpic
