    I don't know what this guy was thinking but the prevent defense almost killed us today. Its not like we were up by 3 TDs...

    I think that you already know the answer to this question.

    That was miserable but I think he shares the blame with Mangini. We should have kept attacking it was obviously working.

    good answer :lol:


    But the thought process needs to be: We are down by 4 pts all the time, no matter how much we are up by, we are down by 4 pts. Defenses that play like that win 10-12 games a year.

    The "Prevent defense" is just a mystery to me. If your D scheme has shut the other team down for the entire game, why would you change that scheme in the last 2 minutes? I could never understand that thought process.

    I just hope we don't find out that Pollard was secretly in the Jets' payroll.

    you didn't see ted cottrell turn a san diego victory into a defeat.

    good thing the jets bye week comes early this year, so sutton can take a refresher course.....:mad:

    Prevent D - prevents your team from winning.

    Didn't read the thread, but to answer the original question, I think it worked.
