The Bucs are the highest blitzing defense in the NFL

January 19, 2022 03:33PM
they blitz 40.8% of the time. The Rams are 11th at 26.6% (and Staley? 25.2% of the time, so there goes that theory that Morris wasn't as aggressive as Staley...)

So McVay is going to need to be creative to slow down that blitz, because Arians and every other coach in the NFL knows if you can pressure and rattle Stafford, he can make game changing mistakes.

So quick passes, jet sweeps, QB rollouts to change the launch point. Play action is also important, but that will only work if they actually fear the run.

RB screens fall into this category.

  With Akers back could we get our screen game going?

  Yes, that would be ideal. Help the offensive line.
