No, just offensive snaps. They line him up literally everywhere.
Out wide, slot, wildcat, running back with Brees.
The issue lies more on the Ravens for not utilizing Lamar as more than a wildcat option. The Saints will put Hill out there and give 10 different looks. With the Ravens, you know it's a run out wide 99% of the time.
I think it was 2012 when the Ravens got smashed by Houston and JJ had so many tipped passes. KO basically said, "What are you gonna do when they jump?"
My answer? Punch em in the gut. Make them scared to go up.

That wasn’t to be taken completely literally lol, what I was getting at is I saw Mosley with his nose in the A gap pre snap constantly, and every time I would say out loud “please don’t blitz Mosley” or “please drop Mosley” and every time he DID blitz and every time I called that, his would-be zone got exploited

That’s an old school move too, shits been used as long as DLs have been jumping
haha im agreeing that its ridiculous - we blitz from everywhere but qbs have worked out our tells and our scheme well enough that pre-snap they can figure out where the blitz is coming from and take advantage of the hole it creates (no matter whether its mosley or someone else)

Yeah it’s really bad. Like I knew it was bad but then I Wikipedia’d the roster for those seasons and was disgusted by the names. Cringe-worthy
Awesome. Pictures seem to be hopefully working this time.

'scuse me?
For my coverage series. I test posted a picture in this thread and so I can screen shot different things from the All-22 and then I have a photo editor on my laptop.

So much talent we passed on for some huge busts.

The Steelers game is really a chore to watch. Joe was not good in this game. He was bad. There are multiple examples of him staring down receivers in the most overt manner possible. Missing throws, missing reads...late on throws...balls being tipped, etc. It goes on and on and it's frustrating to watch.
On the play where he targets Crabtree in the 4th quarter on a cross he is late and indecisive getting the ball to the receiver. If he hits Crabtree as he turns off the line....Crab is looking for the ball...Crabtree splits the defenders and picks up the first. Joe also fails to see the curl defender break to cover Crabtree, leaving hurst wide open up the seam for a pitch and catch first down, leaving Hurst with one defender to beat....he likely scores. in any case, we settle for three points.
