Chargers (-1.5) at Jets Pregame Discussion (Wk 9)

[Boltjolt]

Texans rookie Tank Dell has 28 catches for 454 yds and 4 TDs. He got wide open for CJ Stroud during that incredible drive to win the game for the Texans today, getting open on the opposite sideline for a long gain and getting out of bounds. The next play Stroud hit him in the back of the end zone, he was wide open again and leapt to make the catch. I don't know how he is beating press coverage. He's only 5-foot-8.3 inches 165 lbs - exactly the same height/weight as Derius Davis. Dell's 40 time was 4.49 to Davis' 4.36. Dell was drafted with the first pick of the 3rd round - 69th.

I hope Moore is paying attention to how Houston is using Dell and designs plays for DD as a downfield WR, not just a jet sweep or WR screen guy.

After watching the highlights, he wasn't facing press coverage. At least in the highlights.
TB was in zone coverage. The winning TD the defender was near 10 yards off of him.

Moore can use Davis more and I wish he would with his speed. We should see him more often now that Palmer is on IR. Guyton should get worked in slow.

Yep...also, motion, play action, short passes, and MAX PROTECT...don't understand why Bolts don't more often at LEAST keep a RB in on Herbie's blind side (or whatever side most of the pressure is coming from) to block the edge rusher...if no or little pressure, RB peels out into the flats for a quick safety valve...or stays in to buy more time for a deeper route pass...

The pass rush that hurts Herbert the most, or any other QB, is the pressure that comes up the middle..... it gets to the QB the quickest....and has a great good chance to block or tip the pass if they dont get the sack..... since losing our all pro center, we have given up big sacks at key moments right up the gut.... maybe use 2 RB's.... or RB and a TE to help out?.... i dont know what solution is..... but you are right... we need to help the OL....

I'd like to see a little more of Herbert rolling out.

I'd like to see a little more of Herbert rolling out.

There will be teams who prepare for him doing that. It should be used at a good time too.

My man, Tank! When he is in the lineup, he does nothing but produce plays. He and DD were my "late round" picks...
Like you, I hope Moore finds ways to get the ball to DD more. Having scouted both, Tank is the polished route runner... DD is the burner. I'd like to see KM put DD in short motion and let him fly. Even if JH didn't hit him deep every play, it would open up the middle for everyone else.

[Bolt4Knob]

I'd like to see the Bolts break off a streak of 4-5 games for a change...but if we keep up with this .500 pace or so, that's no bueno...

I agree - they need to win like 5 out of 6 or something like that. But tonight is pretty much a must win. Cannot be two games back of the Jets and lose the tiebreaker; same with the Dolphins

Good people of CVille - tonight shall not disappoint. 12 hrs until the march to victory! Onward!

[Boltnut]

Tonight, we loot Zach Wilson and the Jets!

Fvck. I didn't know Palmer went on IR. The formidable WR corps we were salivating about this summer has been dismembered by injury, again. Moore is going to have to get even more creative. The Jets are going to scheme to take away Keenan Allen. One positive, and maybe I shouldn't jinx it by talking about it, is the TE situation with Parham and Everett.
