    Thank you, that's what i was thinking Baldy meant.

    You could use the DT has a blocker, with the primary responsibility of keeping the guard off Bosa, no?
    Or you could have the center occupied by the other DT, who you place over center or in the A gap.

    Lots of options Bradley could have explored, since he rarely sent the inside linebacker on a blitz.
    Didn't even bother feigning the blitz because the inside linebacker had to race back and cover
    4.3 40 receivers on deep posts.

    Watch the next video I posted where they slide to Bosa's side. That's what they wantbto do every play. Showing the 'A' gap blitz long enough freezes the C so the G can't help the T. If the C does slide, it's a delayed blitz and K9 has a clean run.

    Another impact is that if they are sliding protection to the right every time the opposite side pash rush has a much easier time. On Nwosu's hit of Fitz he has an inside rip with the LT on an island. If they had slid protection left, he would have gone straight into a G.

    Staley also had multiple play calls last year where he used the line shift toward Donald to get a free rusher on the NB blitz. We haven't showed that yet, but it's there. Bosa dominates protection calls just like Donald does, so the same concepts apply.

    Our opposite side EDGE players do need to do better with all this space. Getting Tillery on a stunt with Fackrell crashing should also be there and maybe get him some momentum.

      Bosa hasn't had good pass rushing DTs to play along with. Something he needs. Then it'll make it harder for teams to double team Joey.
      That's why I thought Justin Houston would be worth signing. He just had a sack vs. the Raiders, BTW:

        We have had a good or great off season this year. Signing Houston would have just made too much sense for the Chargers to do, there is only so much good that can be accomplished in one off season for us.

          Egbule has been on standby all along.
          Houston had mutual interest elsewhere.
          We do not play modern football.

            Houston made too much sense to sign. Must be something else to it. Indy did not resign him and TT is buds with Indy.

              Chargers like their EDGE population.
              There was no room for Houston.
              It makes perfect sense that we did not sign Houston.

                  Houston signed a one-year deal with the Ravens for only $2 mil. Surely we could have outbid them with $3 mil or so. You can never have enough pass rushers. But, as Heat mentioned, maybe there was something else going on. Too bad.

                    We are developing Rumph II, another aspect.

                    TT is managing our cap/player development nicely IMV.

                      Rumph looks promising...

                        I'd rather have Houston than Amen or Hall.

                          He may sneak in with some ST snaps here.
                          Feed him some Victory Brisket sammies.
                          Put some meat on Chris.
