I have seen more blitzes, stunts, and fake blitzes this year that previously. I have to admit that the last game was the first time I saw a corner blitz. The 2-3 safety blitzes we have seen are ineffective, as well as any normal LB blitz. And even though Mario and Weaver have come off the line into coverage, bleh, they are mixing it up.
They have run blitzed alot, but it has probably hurt them as much as helped them. I think the biggest issue is poor play from our DT's and all 3 LB's, whether it is gap penetration, containment, coverage, or tackling(ok this is the worst for both).
Because of this the safeties are biting the run more and droping coverage, and it seems like every time they play zone they get beat.
From what we have seen they can blitz 50% of the time and still never get to the QB because line just folds. Its almost like the DL has no idea the LB's are comming.
