The game is done. No one got hurt (hopefully Hardmans finger isn't mangled) and waiting to hear on WMD. Watching Wink play cover zero the entire time in a preseason game was dogshit. He's a scumbag. Also not really sure why you are responding to shit from 5 days ago. https://x.com/PFF_Sam/status/1695566761758724436?s=20 Watching this asshole hit Rodgers 3 seconds after the ball was out is also trash and the exact reason why I didn't want him playing vs a bunch of borderline guys who wanted more playing time.
I am late in responding because I just now read the thread today when I responded. I hadn't heard that WMD got hurt. I think Hardman just dislocated his finger. Maybe it'll be a blessing in disguise and it will make him focus more on catching the ball. He's dropped way too many in TC and preseason action. I had high hopes for him, but it's beginning to look like he is just a gadget player.
it was a weak bump man. It’s good for Rodgers to take a hit or two before the season and get his feet wet. All is well
One thing I learned about coaching is: You can't coach speed. You can teach guys who are fast to do almost anything, but you speed is something you either have or you don't. I think this is one of Saleh's core beliefs as well.
Cover 0 is man coverage and it's called cover 0 because there is 0 help deep. Everyone is playing man up across the board on the WRs while everyone else is blitzing. It's a high-pressure defense that forces the QB to get rid of the ball quickly. They just wanted to take shots at Rodgers. Saw it with that idiot Ward hitting him 5 steps after the ball was out. Remember when JFM hit Mac after 1.5 steps and the pick 6 got called back? I do...
It's not just Rodgers, Martindale comes after the qb every game. Was reading about Bel*chick getting pissed when Wink was blitzing week one of the 2022 preseason. Blitzed 46% and had a cover-0 blitz rate of 20.3 percent.
someone showed a chart of blitz rate during the pre-season in the NFL for 2023 and the giants were the lone team on the right side by themselves for most.
