That's just how Fangio defenses work. The meaningful recent change is that they've been able to play the run really well out of Nickel. Well, Fangio Nickel. So that means it presents like 4-2-5, but the personnel is actually 2-4-5. It's also why worrying about DE vs OLB isn't really a concern. Those guys have to do a lot whatever you label it.

To be clear, I haven't looked at the coaches' film yet to see what they did and did not do schematically. But the entire point of Fangio's defense is the illusion of simplicity. We really do not know anywhere near enough to make conclusions from the broadcast angle. I won't get to that for a couple of days.

Looking forward to seeing your analysis. To play devil's advocate, it's now 3 games already against ATL, NO, and JAX, that the defense had late leads and absolutely folded in the last 2 mins. Great that Dean got that pick, but let's be real. Dean on an island in the endzone against a WR is an L 90% of the time

Thank you for the kind words, but I want to make sure you know that pick wasn’t against a WR. It was D’Ernest Johnson (RB) on a Wheel route.

Damn, it doesn't have the Saints logo with the hashtag when it's embedded like it does on the actual Twitter page.

I'mnon a walk with the dogs and have been on and off giggling for like 200 feet. On a day where a ton of nervous energy is bottled up, this is hitting

Here's to a good day, my friend. My wife is making me cinnamon buns because I "have made so much progress." Someone punched a hole in a wall next to her yesterday and I did not have him installed in the floor of the Indian Ocean. Growing up is hard.

Cheers Jojo. I took off work today and will be drunk. For good or bad. But Fiance and I have strawberry infused tequila in the fridge to make margs
