Cap1 Posted October 1, 2014 Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 10 YEARS EXPERIENCE. I feel ya... it's been about the same here. I'm not sure if coverage techniques have changed that much in some of these coaches eyes or if they just don't spend enough time coaching these kids up.

couch qb Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 (edited) I'll have to say in twenty odd years of walking or running the track during practices. I can honestly say... i have yet to see a one on one with a player teaching proper secondary technique or any DB technique for that matter...have you ever noticed that non of our guys knows how to back pedal or if they do I've never seen it used in a game. Could explain why we keep getting beat deep...i mean you just can't stand there flat footed giving a 8 yrd cushion and have the WR sprinting at you full speed ..wait till he gets to you then try to turn and run with him...don't care how fast you are.. your giving up two to three steps right there ...DUH!!! Man you gotta keep some try to keep some cushion so you can either read the route and break on it or pivot and run if its deep route. If that's the technique they wanna use then they would be better off just going bump and run and trying to jam them.

Just saying You have to think that the defensive backs are getting special attention this week in practice knowing that IMO they will make or break the Vikings in this game not just with coverage but open field tackles.

Cap1 Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 I can't help but notice the crickets that have been chirping in the background since along about post number 32. Doesn't anybody want to tell us AGAIN how good Science Hill is, or how unstoppable McGue is going to be, or maybe how the Vikings are going to get beat 120 to 5??!

I think with this SH offense,knocking the hill out of the topper who catches the ball,is about what you have to do.Unless,you have some lockdown defensive backs and they don't come along every day.I've seen many receivers arms shrink a foot after getting nailed .I know having a spy on whoever takes the snap will be hard,but that's always something to consider as well. Maybe the rain will give the Vikings a gift of 6 or 8 turnovers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't have to keep reiterating how good McGue and the rest of this SH team are. I'm pretty sure it's more than obvious at this point.

THSSpectre7 Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 I think if we keep it close (7-10) we should take a moral victory out of this game. That will still be very difficult however.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBama42 Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 Just hit them hard as you can, over and over, and you will have a chance TN high. Plus the ground is gonna be wet. Who will this benefit? A scrambling QB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
