The timing of Al's injury is just horrendous, but does his injury force a philosophy change right now? With the rule changes on contact in the secondary coupled with the lack of corners that actually have the testicles to play bump and run; are we forced to join most of the league with zone coverage from our corners?

I hate giving up the one on one matchups and challenging passes, but there are some really good aspects to zone coverage as well. The main thing would be tackling and having disciplined players, which like Dfoster says - we are lacking in intelligence in the secondary.

The boys in the office told me I should live in the now. I told them I was watching great press coverage (Hayes and Haynes) while they were shitting their diapers. God I'm getting old.

Aaaahhhhhh....Lester Hayes and his head to toe stickum. Dude was like a fly strip between the lines.

My guess is that, yes, we will play more zone. But I would also think we will play man to man as well.....perhaps just not as much as previously.

Gotta play to the strengths of the players on the field, and account for the fact we are covering up a huge loss to the roster in Al Harris.

Tramon can play bump and run pretty good. Maybe we will play man when there are only 2 WR's on the field. Tramon is our second corner now right? Woodson then Tramon? Im still confused why underwood was covering the number 2 WR last game. Isn't he our 3rd corner now?

I say grab a few sets of handcuffs, lock up each wr with a db and give that a shot.

Our secondary is screwed once Bush steps onto the field.

Correct we if I'm wrong but we haven't been playing that much press bump and run since Capers has.... we've been playing a lot more zone and Cover 2 even with Harris. Capers likes zone... so there has already been a lot of zone in...

Also in Capers system Woodson has been put on the TE a lot so that means the #2 CB goes on the #1 WR and #3 CB on the #2 WR...

Woodson has been everywhere, outside cb covering receivers, inside covering TEs, safety and blitzing.

With Harris out I suspect Woodson won't be all over the place quite as much. That's just one of the negatives knock on effects of Harris being out.

One of my least favorite rule changes in the "new NFL" is the elimination of bump and run coverage after five yards. I hate that "illegal contact" penalty. Make the damn wide receiver prima donnas earn every yard until the ball is in the air.

Then we'd know who the real WRs and the real QBs were. And which ones wouldnt be good enough to carry Raymond Berry or Bart Starr's jockstraps.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Zero2Cool (19h) : It's like listen, you made 4,201 mocks, no shit.
Zero2Cool (19h) : Cuz during the draft "I had them mocked there!" as if it's amazing.
Zero2Cool (19h) : They're fun to do once in awhile. It's people who think they are "content" that annoy me.

dfosterf (20h) : And/Or a city council, of which I haven't seen a good one in a very long time
dfosterf (21h) : That sounds like a Mayor, not a city.

Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Yeah, challenge until you are incorrect twice.
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Fining them is the goal, per the people who made the rule anyway.
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still waiting on the kickoff rule changes. Did hear yesterday that the touchback proposal will now be the 30 yard line, not the 35
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
beast (25-Mar) : Simply fined in the week to follow
beast (25-Mar) : I agree with one NFL official, it'll probably be like some of the helmets hits, not really called by the refs on the field but simply fined
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Hip drop is not. Super confusing. Referees job is harder
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Swivel hip drop is banned
dfosterf (25-Mar) : The hip drop enforcement will be in the form of fines, etc. Not flags
dfosterf (25-Mar) : A major foul will be enforced on the offense if there are offsetting penalties in a change of possession situation
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Teams will receive a 3rd challenge if 1 was successful. Previously, it took 2
