Sometimes I think coaches can get lost in playing scheme against scheme. I've seen so many teams have success just sending 5 or 6 as it becomes a numbers game. Can the 5 blockers win all 5 blocking battles. Just need to win one to pressure the QB, It can be that simple to get pressure. But I agree with the nickel, Hayden has done a nice job at nickel but he shouldn't be your run D guy.

It's one of my main complaints against Wash, for a guy in his 4th year, I see so little innovation or creativity. The playbook feels exactly the same. Not utilising players or skillsets enough.

Add this to the Panthers players laughing how they ran the same play over and over.

I'm sure BoB was laughing after London too, since their secondary is in shambles and they pretty much pencil whipped this coach staff too.

When you lack talent you gotta scheme it up and we seem to lack talent and scheming ability.

Exactly this. It feels like we need the perfect players to fit the scheme. No team has an 'all star' D, you find guys who fit the basics you need. I heard yesterday the Patriots had their 19th consecutive winning season. That's insane. And while I hate comparing to the Patriots, they take undrafted guys and low round picks and make them stars. That's coaching and the system.

They both want to play not to lose.

Everything they do on both sides of the ball is very conservative, close to the vest, let's stick to the plan and not beat ourselves. They only get out of that by absolute necessity and by then, most times it's too late.

We look way to comfortable playing 1 score behind. Anytime we get a lead we seem to try and chew clock and go run heavy. You dont feel they are trying to grab the momentum or take advantage when were playing better.

Some of Marrones 4th down calls have been very bold. Theres brave and then theres reckless.
