Chiefs You're the DC...How Do You Stop The Bradys? - Page 3

So what's your arm chair call on stopping the Pats offense?

I put Sorenson on White whenever he is in.
Play 8-9 in the box
Flood the 5-15 yard zones
Make Brady have to throw deep

In other words, I think you play Brady like you would Alex Smith.....ironic, I know

Sorenson to Bradys knee. game over.

Bernard Pollard

Do what we did in 2017: take away the middle of the field.

Drop the OLB on Edelman’s side to take away the quick slant passes while having a safety over the top. Have whatever CB that’s on him jam the shit out of him at the LOS. Rush Houston and Jones in the middle A gaps, put Berry on Gronk and force Brady to go deep outside the numbers.

I'm not sure you can with the way Gronk is blocking these days. Seems futile.

Pretty much what Amnorix said.

Big thing is, don't fuck up.

Like all great QB’s, pressure up the middle, get them out of the pocket, don’t let them get comfortable. Keep them off the field. Executing the plan, is the hard part.

You send Bernard Pollard on a Blitz...
heh heh...

I think we can match up well with them in man coverage and let the dogs hunt and take over this game.

Fuller, Ward and Nelson match up well with Edelman, Hogan and Dorsett
Berry matches well with Gronk

Help over the top.

I honestly think I’d go nearly full man coverage like that as much as I could and use the front 7 to pressure Brady and prevent him from dumping it off to the backs.

Shit I didnt see this thread. As I said in the other:

Id have Fuller follow Edelman. Mix up Berry and Ward on Gronk. Mix up Sorenson/Houston in the flats.
[Reply]

Jam receivers + as much pressure as possible. It all really starts up front. If we have to blitz, we are in trouble. What I like is that Ford, Houston, and Jones are all peaking right now.

I'd do whatever pete says. XOXO

We need Jones blocking passes and putting pressure on Brady right in his face up the middle. Dline has to get their hands up!)

Hitchens - DoD(blow people up crossing the middle and catching in the flats)

Nelson-Ward-Berry-Fuller (Berry on Growk most of the time, Fuller on Edelman)

Our pressure comes from front 5, while the back 6 rough up Edelman,Hogan and Growk. Make sure we rotate coverages in the back, Zone,Man,Press etc.

If your bringing 5, you have to play man press behind it against brady to take the timing away.
