After watching some film, it's interesting to see how Gannon attacked Stroud. It seemed like he was intent on throwing exotic coverages at CJ to try to confuse him. It didn't normally work, and actually seemed to backfire a lot of the time.

But it also seems like Gannon was intent on having his cover guys jump anticipatory routes. Especially those over the middle. This seems to be the most common way defensive coaches are getting to CJ. I think that's an ongoing adjustment that CJ is making.

What's interesting is that anytime we did a double move on these defenders, we typically beat them pretty hard. Tank's touchdown comes to mind. Nicole Collins had an out and up in the back corner of the end zone where he beat his man as well, but the throw just wasn't quite there. I think this is what the Texans need to do when they start seeing this defense, as I think they will more and more. Especially with a quarterback that loves to drive the ball down the field.

It worked for Gannon in the sense that sitting on those anticipatory routes( those ins, outs, and quick slants) produced three interceptions. But it also didn't work in the sense that CJ still made that defense pay. And it could have been a lot worse than the stats show.

Love this kid. After watching this, and thinking about these things, it makes sense as to why he said what he said about how he's going to keep slinging it. So excited for next week.

Does the JAGS DC favor risky moves on D too?

I agree with Caserio and what he has done. Stop projecting…

Sorry. For some reason, I get you confused with HeyNow. My bad.

I was just wondering after watching the Mi'ced up video why C J was having trouble gripping the ball or why Dieter's Jersey would be wet? We are playing in a retractable roof stadium.
