....what would you do? I mean in the past years we were a one dementional offensive team, stop the run and we were dead. Even Denver this past weekend thought all they had to do is stop the run, but we showed we can pass too. Actually against Denver we were more successful with trowing the ball, then running it, but I do believe we can be extremly good at rushing too. So if you were NY how whould you approach defending the Dolphins?
 
Stop the run. Im not being funny, if i was NY i'd still question Miamis passing game. Make adjustments at half if it seems like Miamis passing game is for realy, but for now i'd bring the heat and see if I could rattle gus.
 
Turn-overs are HUGE in this Series....

Who-ever turns the ball over usually has a BAD day....
 
i don´t want to be in their shoes for now, Coach Saban is coming to ny and he has scott linehan with him......


seriously though, i think i would try to stop the run and bring pressure to see how he responds to the blitz, i´m very interested to see which miami team will show up on sunday.....damn i´m pumped already....again....GO MIAMI
 
Last I checked you haven't proven you can run the ball yet so that still makes you 1 dimensional and the pass rush will be a little mroe fierce w/ our great DEs than you saw last week w/ the denver Browns.

we havent proved we can run the ball against 8-9 man fronts.. Denver (Shanny) followed last years blue-print and It blew up in his face...The Jets will probably do the same thing but they have a much better front 7 IMHO but I doubt they show any reaspect EARLY to our passing offense after the half who knows.
 
Well we did get 151 rushing yards, with out really geting creative yet.

Exactly! Our passing game still has to show some consistency over a few more games before teams start respecting it totally. The Jets will do what the Broncos did, try to stop the run and force us to pass. The jets thinking will be: Our defensive backs are better than the Broncos. And they are slightly but we have the recievers who can bust them deep and a QB who can get them the ball quickly and let them make a play. This philosophy will do them in because there will be some big play early which will loosen them up and the Ronnie will take the second half and double his yardage outcome from last week against Denver.

It will be interesting. Miami is very different from years past. Where we use to be vanilla, now we are very complex...where our offense was playing not to lose and punting was "ok", now we are putting forth a concerted effort to put 7 on the board from anywhere on the field.

I think your Jets will be unprepared for whatever Linehan has cooked up for you.

What everyone else is suggesting ... in addition, I'd run some other defensive stunts.

However, any team that does so consumes a lot of energy.

Oh yea, btw ...


The J-E-T-S and that goat hearding fireman ed will be ... :0wned:
 
Nothing has changed in a week. Well, almost nothing. Miami unveiled tons of creativity last week, including players in motion being the primary focus of running plays. I'm not talking about the Chambers play. That's a vanilla reverse that happened to work. The interesting stuff was players being put in motion off the slot then settling into the backfield briefly and being handed the ball. That was never hinted at in preseason.

Everything tends to come back to the beginning. Our primary concerns going into the season were QB and OL. Now what has altered in one week? The OL got very little push, with several plays stuffed in the backfield. I'm not a big believer in sack numbers being representative of OL improvement. It's all about the holes for the running game in my book, and they weren't there.

Frerotte looked good, virtually identical numbers to his lifetime 7.1 yards per attempt. But without a running game on the road that passing output will be extremely difficult to match. The Jets would be incomparably moronic if they didn't attack our personnel-deficient OL, try to stop the run, and force Frerotte to put up a big game on the road.
 
I agree with Awsi here.
Not to take anything away from their performance, but if I'm Donny Henderson, I'm targeting our main weakness, the O-line.
I'm coming with blitzes and plays utilizing Abraham's speed on the outside to confuse our O-line. While Denver did a poor job of putting pressure on our QB, it was mostly due to the superior game planning by Linehan who did a terrific job of masking our deficiencies by providing Frerotte with options underneath and/or having players helping out blocking in the backfield. I believe that will still be the gameplan but playing at the Meadowlands will make it harder.
Houck better have them ready. Ellis and Abraham followed by Peppers and Buckner.

KC can't run against a NFL 9 man front. No team can consistanly. As the season wears on and Gus proves this week was not a fluke, teams will have no choice but to respect our pass. We put up 426 total yards this week, teams can't afford to allow that just to stop our running game.
If you look back to Minnesota's offense, Scott has always used the pass to open up the run. He tries to spread you out and get you thinking pass and then hit you up the middle. Run is more of a way to protect leads rather than build your offense around, is Scott's system.
We can't get too worried about how many yards on the ground we get. It is all about taking adantage of mismatches, and taking what the defense gives us.
