Would you think that a league with a rule that states:
The *** expects it's owners to play a realistic style of defense. Remember football is a game of strategy.
Use the proper formations & use your audible's to adjust if necessary.
Learn your playbook and utilize formations
to confuse your opponent. LOOK at the offensive formation and adjust your defense accordingly.
would boot a guy
for beating these following defenses. In 4 games in this league only one of my opponents mixed up the D as the rule states.
Apparently playing all out blitz with more LB's in against 3+ WR sets is now the sim norm. Throwing to the open guy is untolerable
if its more than a certain number of times.
Unfotunately the buccaneers owner is a good guy and I didnt start compiling pictures until after seeing the repetetiveness
of these schemes in the first two games, this being the third game. I beleive he actually realized that I read his defense
well and adjusted accordingly. This game I jumped out to a decent lead and he made a very good game of it in the second
half (24-17 I won) In the following picture you notice he did not want to have less than 2 LB's on the field even though i
had 4 wr's (not a trick formation either)
Notice here the same concept, I am in 4 wr 1 rb set. See that one of his 2 LB's slid out on the inside wr in trips. This
leaves him with one LB (manually controlled) I have 2 receivers going to that area will he rush? cover the HB or jump my #1
read the wr leaving the HB open over the middle? Even a possible run from shotgun in this situation gains very good yards.
Here is another similar situation. 3 wr's 1 te and 1 rb. This is a 4-3 D as the OLB has slid out to cover my 3rd fastest
wr in the slot, the safety has come up as if blitzing right over the TE. Obviously the read here if he doesnt move the LB
out is to run off tackle or pitch or if your comfortable in your passing game Carter or Smith should be able to beat coverage
deep with their speed or just about any route in single coverage with at worst 1 safety deep. If the safety is man on the
HB and the LB's are blitzing this is even more reason to pass.
