4-2-5 base defense

Not sure if anyone noticed at the beginning of the game last Saturday but it appears we are now a base 4-2-5 defense?

I know a lot of teams in today’s era run around 3 WRs as their base offense but thought it was interesting nonetheless. Cant imagine we’ve ever had a base 4-2-5 defense in our past…

That look limited Soares time on the field; just 15 snaps as per @mshelton33 analysis.

Looked like Fitzball to me.

They are both on this board. Ask them. Demand a response or just keep accusing them of making stuff up.
They were repeating what they were told by the whistleblower. And the summary report said the claims were “largely supported” by the evidence. Ok great, any info on the who, what, when? Zippo.

I am fully aware that we will likely never know what really happened. It’s just shocking to me that these events actually happened and no one seems to care to know who did it. Are we cheering on violent assaulters every Saturday? Who knows.

Why I'm cautiously optimistic about the offense after week 1

The broadcast announced Gordon and Lang as starters, along with Porter-Kirtz-Henning. Use of TEs is something that we’ve been led to believe will distinguish Lujan.

But I’m pretty that Covey got more snaps than Lang. We also saw a fair bit of Calvin Johnson.

Wholeheartedly agree that Komolafe and Himon were disappointments in week one.
You raise another point I forgot to mention - I'm liking the WR depth so far. Covey looks legit and Calvin Johnson also seems like he will contribute this year. Jared Thomas said the coaches were raving about CJIII, though that may have just been tv talk.

As for the TEs, I agree I only remember the one long catch and run, but that was a broken play. Not sure why they weren't targeted more. That could have been part of the gameplan, the team taking what was given to them or the fact that Wright hasn't developed as much chemistry with them as he has his WR group. We need more data!

The 3-2-1 going into Week 2

When Coco went down, I was breathing into a paper bag. No stat line to speak of, but he's the man
We are deeper back there than you think. not a coincidence that his replacement, Fitzgerald, made the game sealing interceptions. FItz recruited pretty well the last couple years despite some significant obstacles. Let’s hope Braun can keep it up.
