BigPete Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 I am just wondering if we have we used the 5-1-5 defense yet? I haven't noticed it yet With all the injuries we seem to have on the Dline and the secondary, depth of personell could be an issue for this formation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allstarjim Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 I am just wondering if we have we used the 5-1-5 defense yet? I haven't noticed it yet With all the injuries we seem to have on the Dline and the secondary, depth of personell could be an issue for this formation Um, yeah. I don't think I saw it in the game against Washington, but since then, we have not had enough healthy personnel to run that formation with a reasonable expectation of good results. I'm not even sure if that is just a media created formation anyway... or if that's at all in the plans. I seen no reason why they wouldn't just run a standard nickel those situations. Maybe when Sintim, Tuck, and Canty are healthy, you might see it though. But that means Boley is probably not on the field in such a situation, and I don't think I like that.

Lubeck Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 But that means Boley is probably not on the field in such a situation, and I don't think I like that. That is why it would be a 5-2-4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treehugger Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Did Sintim get many snaps on Sunday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allstarjim Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Did Sintim get many snaps on Sunday? He did not play due to his injured groin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
