Has a three seed ever

Unbelievable...eGriz is now down to comparing the physical appearance of (Real? Theoretical? Imaginary?) mates. If that doesn't convince you of someone's football knowledge, whatever will? \s

Meanwhile, back here on planet Earth, what does everyone think of the line (betting, offensive, or defensive), weather, teams' health, or matchups in the, oh, I don't know, let's just say, upcoming game? (Or is that just too close to the supposed actual subject matter on an ostensibly football-related message board?)
 
Didn't you hear? Hoops already called me a pussy! Oh no! Fat guys on a message board don't like me and stuff!
When you get on a fan message board and crow about being some stud athlete, call out a genuine high end DivI arhlete for being old and not playing against competition, it reeks of BS. He called you a pussy because it's almost certainly true.
 
She looks like a kid that doesn't want to take that picture with her dad because shes embarrassed her friends will see! OMG

Ok, still don't care what you or hula hoops thinks
 
cover 2 and 2 deep zone from back in the day are the same thing. When do you think it was invented?
They aren't the same at all. Similar, yes. Linebacker has completely different responsibilities in Cover 2 compared to 2 deep. The game has evolved to where the linebackers now have to play in coverage. The Whole purpose of the 2 deep zone was for corners to be able to play the run hard with the linebackers.

Shhhhhh!!!!!, its naptime at the home, don't wake him
 
What are your stats as far as height and weight? I would be willing to bet the guys I know who played college and NFL, albeit in 80s instead of 70s are way bigger than you and could still kick your ass even though they are now in their 60s.

Don’t kick and HHB are pussies. Hiding behind a keyboard and won’t post any photos. You can’t post photos of girlfriends if they do not exist.
Why would anyone post photos of their family or girlfriends on this site? You are weird.
 
Doughboys like him do it for attention, even if its negative attention. They drink it down with their soy lattes 😘

The original point was that the cover 2 defense didn't drop out of the sky in the last few years. Someone that played or coached in the 70s is perfectly capable of understanding the cover 2. Yes, there are subtle differences in LB and CB responsibility, and you are essentially describing the Tampa 2 version of it, but the cover 2 defense came from the 2 deep zone.

It's a relatively easy scheme to understand. Cover 2 still has the linebacker dropping into coverage, he's just responsible for hook/curl... In tampa 2 Linebacker is responsible for inside seam route (much deeper drop). I will agree that the 2 deep was the father to the Cover 2. Linebackers and corner responsibilities from the 2 deep zone were essentially run stoppers with only the corner jamming the receiver. pretty easy for a corner. Now corners and linebackers have multiple responsibilities in these schemes. Modern offenses made things harder on defenses.
 
So really what both of you are saying is that corners that played before 1980 would have never saw the field on any team at any level.

I agree

Some of these young guys have little background in football and football history, and act like football was just invented in recent decades. They don't realize that great players of the past would mostly be great players today, because they would have grown up with the modern day approach to training and development.

Cover 2. Jeez, zone defense was either cover 2 or cover 3 for as long as I can remember.
