I went back and re read your post and I think I misunderstood the first time lol.
you’re on the money with the blitz idea. If you have the talent to blitz and drop 5-6 every play to cover, do it, pressure is king and it’s RARE that a team has the talent level we have to blitz as much as we do, and if your DC is a mad scientist at dialing up the exotic blitz, all the more reason.
even if we had a chandler jones, still blitz, get those rushers home, make the qb see ghosts, not only are you pressuring them with talent off the edge but you’re also confusing them. I’m a believer in blitzing but only if you have the horses to handle it, when we were blitzing and we had jimmy and Carr and weddle holding it all together, it was a disaster, dropping mosley and weddle from the LOS to show blitz and then cover deep, just ridiculous, but if you have our secondary NOW, blitz, because they’re not gonna get beat often lol.
and even more so now with speed in the LB corps to either get home or drop back, the likes of Patrick queen can handle such a role from what we expect. I like the concept of using speed at LB to blitz more dbs because we now have the guys to cover their ground, that’s what Rex Ryan dreamed of, chuck Clark with this supporting cast could find himself putting up monster numbers this year.
one thing I feel like wink doesn’t do enough of though, is overload blitz, I’d like to see some of that with the talent we have to man up and not get exposed.
