Deep Steel Blueprint: The Coverage Of Bernard

Email
PrintAfter a week absence, due to using all the good material on Battle Red Radio (give it a listen this week for UT and MDC), the Deep Steel Blueprint makes its glorious return for the hardest remaining game on the 2011 schedule of your Houston Texans.
On Sunday, the Texans make their way to
However, there is a little voice in my head that questions this year’s version of the defense. Those questions are there because of the list of offensive juggernauts shut down by
Am I saying there is hope? Am I saying there is a way to move the ball against the
Do I even need to tell you to jump after that vague tease?
Hello Pollard, our old friend,
Texans come to play with you again,
Because a tight end softly creeping,
Left wide open like you were sleeping,
And the blueprint that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the coverage of Bernard.
In Sunday’s games we ran routes
Skinny posts, ins, and outs,
'Near the zone of a strong safety,
Tight ends make their cut upfield for thirty
When our eyes were stabbed by the catch of repeated passes
That split the hashes
And beat the coverage of Bernard.
In the
Fifty thousand people, maybe more.
People screaming without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People saying things that
That e’ryone one dares
Disturb the coverage of Bernard.
"
Bernard, like Kareem, covers slow.
Read my words that I might teach you,
Take my plans that I might reach you."
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed
In the mind of Bernard.
And Houstonians laughed and jeered
At the Bonecrusher they once cheered.
As TDC flashed out his warning,
In the words that he was forming.
And TDC said, the words of the blueprint is written on the stadium walls
And sports blogs.
And whisper'd go after the coverage of Bernard.

Every week BRBers say we need our TE's more involved
And every week, the Texans don’t use them enough.

If the Raiders can manhandle you at the line of scrimmage....
Baltimore is going to facerape you.
The Texans need to make statement and they need to do it now.
"An open mind is like a fortress with it's gates unbarred and unguarded."
I'll disagree that Baltimore's better at the LOS
The Raiders have an incredible strong 4-3 DT rotation between Seymour (who is playing lights out this year), Kelly, and Houston. Two very good, larger than normal DTs that controlled the middle. It’s a bit different against the 3-4 Ravens front.
The Ravens are good up front, but apparently weak along the left side of the defense, run wise. Average on runs to the defense’s left.
Finally, if you use FO’s stats on defensive line power success, stuffs, and sacks…..Oakland’s defensive line is better than Baltimore’s….who are surprisingly bad in short-yardage situations and very average in stuffs.
"Lord, beer me strength."
and don't forget John Henderson
He was pretty disruptive in the middle getting in Schaub’s face more than once. I kinda wish we sould have picked him up when he was free. He’s definitely a space eater at 6’7" 340 lbs…

Yeah, there's a major difference
They have 4 huge men on their line, the Ravens have 3. Their coaching staff runs a zone blocking system & their defense was ready for it. I don’t think Vonta Leach can teach the defense everything they need to know on how to stop it

The Ravens run lots of 4-3.
I wish we could hire coaches without "having grown up in Houston" being a job requirement.
Their base defense is a 3-4
Still, even with a 4-3 look, their DTs aren’t as athletic as the Raiders DTs, who caused the majority of the havoc at the line

Chicken or egg?
Bernard covers a lot better when Terrell Suggs is rushing the passer. Pollard was one of my favorite Texans based not on coverage skills, but by the swag he brought to the team. He’s not a coverage guy anyway, he’s a knock people the fuck out guy. Our secondary hadn’t had that since Dunte and we needed it at the time. I wish only good things for Bernard Pollard. Except for Sunday, I hope he eats bad shellfish Saturday and has the runny boos.
I think we got some hitters back there now
J jo and manning have been laying the wood this year! I’m so glad we got j jo not asomuagha he has been playing a lot better this season and he is a lot more physical than scrabble.

We won't win unless Shaub throws for bettern than 60 percent. If he can do that, our run game will open up.
Come on Shaub!! Don’t forget that 09 season. Light it UP!!!
hard to throw for better than 60% when your receiver (singular, not plural) doesn't get to the spot the ball is going to be at.
hm what was Schaub’s final number was 24 for 51. Take away 1 for 11 for Jacoby and you have 23 for 40 and you have 57.5% which is not quite 60% but pretty good nonetheless.
1 for 11 to Jacoby...
Included several poorly thrown balls.
It was a combination
of both guys having an off day

"Fanaticism consists in redoubling your efforts when you have forgotten your aim." - George Santayana
I find it hard to believe though
that Schaub only have off-day when throwing to Jacoby, so I concluded Jacoby wasn’t where he was supposed to be. In the NFL QBs always throw to the end of receiver’s route rather than wait for him to turn around and make eye contact before throwing.
Schaub wasn’t missing with the other receivers, only Jacoby, hence I place 90% of blame on Jacoby.
I just watched the game on NFL replay
To me, it looked like Jacoby wasn’t running as hard after his breaks as much as the other receivers were, which is a major indictment on him, as the only pass he caught was a curl route that was thrown perfectly to him.

That's Jacoby for you. Shows up when he wants to but otherwise, he's terrible.

We came within a OT pick 6 of beating them last year with Arian running down their D. We can do it again. Not to mention our D is improved. Still, I kind of feel like it’s going to be a close loss mostly because we’re playing them in their house.

Ravens Defense is strongest in NFL against TEs
http://footballoutsiders.com/stats/teamdef
Bernard Pollard will be covering somebody, but I doubt it will be Owen Daniels unless he’s one of two people doing it.
The Ravens defense has been bolstered by excellent defensive line play, but the Texans will be the best OL the Ravens face. This one is best on best and should be fun. However the Texans offense is a lot less scary without Andre Johnson.
Just depends on the set
If there are 2+TEs he will likely have to cover 1

They may even send Pollard after the QB and have a LB cover shallow and the other safety cover deep.
Key will be Schaub knowing if Pollard is blitzing. I always find it odd when a safety charges to the line, where the tackle in front of him can see him clear as day, and he still gets to the QB untouched.
Saw that stat
I’m weary on fully trusting it since the Ravens have faced 2 of the league’s worst offenses (New York and St. Louis), a mediocre offense (Tennessee), and the enigma that is Pittsburgh (good statistically but not overly impressive eye-wise…and Baltimore destroyed that joke of an OL and harassed Ben all day to the delight of millions). None really have tight ends who are studs…..except Keller in NY, but he has a turrible QB.
Still, I’d expect Pollard to have to deal with Daniels, Casey, or Dreessen….and I’d take that match-up.
"Lord, beer me strength."
According to Football Outsiders
the Texans have 3 TE in the top 20 for DYAR and top 15 for DVOA.
Of course, they still rank Casey as a TE, but that’s pretty badass.
Texans are the best offense the Ravens have faced so far, but it’s worth noting that the whole point of DVOA is that it adjusts for the opposition. Doing it again is a bit silly.
Four games is a small sample size.
Their numbers should regress to the mean toward season’s end.
Blind fandom is all I got left.
"Down to clown with some other chick's lady bits" ~ MDC
I've been told
From Fans over at the Beatdown, that Pollard isn’t there starter, and would only be coming in during running situations. This is a great opportunity for the Texans to make in game adjustments and Target the former Texan.
2 Defensive Scores are in the Karma Bag
"Wade aid has lean in it, just saying"
Listed as a starter every depth chart really
But I’m with you. If he’s on the field, I’d hope Schaub makes a note of where he is…and takes advantage of the obvious match-up.
"Lord, beer me strength."
their starter is hurt and not likely to play this game
I wish we could hire coaches without "having grown up in Houston" being a job requirement.
according to PFF
looking over their coverage of TEs in four games, they like to either use Ray Lewis, Jarrett Johnson, or Lardarius Webb to cover the tight end the majority of the time. So two LBs and a corner. They used Zbikowski a few times, but he is injured and won’t play this game. The tight ends the Ravens have faced so far are Heath Miller, Jared Cook, Lance Kendricks, and Dustin Keller. Owen Daniels is better than all of those guys. I like his chances against the Ravens LBs in coverage. Also we have a good second TE in Dreessen that other teams didn’t have, it could be Dreessen that has the most mismatches.
I wish we could hire coaches without "having grown up in Houston" being a job requirement.
I agree about Dreessen
He was getting WIDE open when the Raiders keyed too much on O.D.
I'm a man!! I'm forty!!

I have a feeling that this year is the year and matt n jacoby, yes jacoby will makeup. Somehow I feel that jacoby has never been challenged and mason has scared him straight. These moves were not big but we’ve made our big moves(wade,jjo,manning,-jackson) dont want a philly break down due to, too many moves. Week 6 and we are 3-2 our injury b bug is almost behind us, cush n meco gettinh back to form,smith is really earning his. Sucks that we lost mario but I believe this year we can afford only 1 player and it had to be an olb. Not a cb,dt,de an ilb! Noone on the O can we afford for a long period.

If we had to have someone major go down for the season mario would have been the best option, I have faith that our d will still be a top 10 d by the end of the season. The scheme is so good and even without mario we still have plenty of playmakers on that side of the ball. I wouldn’t be surprised if Reed plays very well for us. I believe the guy has what it takes to be a very solid starting line backer for us.

Vonta Leach recovers a fumble on special teams but returns it the wrong way, briefly forgetting he is no longer a Texan
Bernard Pollard also has a ’Nam flashback and levels the only Raven in the area in a position to make the play, resulting in a safety

I realize that it is just me
But i think this is a very winnable game. We have to bring our run game, and keep them focused up front and Kwalt and JJ need to show up big. If we can keep from losing the Turnover battle i think this is our big win for the (regular) season. What happened in Tenn. is They were so focused on Chris Johnson that the pass game was left open. Having Mason in this game would make a big difference because Schaub is going to have to get rid of the ball FAST Last week was the perfect game to go through before facing the Ravens Defense. Ravens Secondary is not as good as there front guys.
If we can keep Ray Rice in check, we have an excellent chance.
Their D is awesome, but our O can (and has) score on them. If that’s close to a wash with the edge going to them, all we have to do is force Flacco to beat us and we can pull out a win where we’re not supposed to.
Tough place to win and a tough team to beat, but it is possible.
For some weird reason, I got us winning this game. This is one of those, Baltimore should win but somehow, they stink it up.
I didn’t feel too confident about the Raiders game also and that was because of the sportsradio 610 text I got on saturday morning about Al Davis passing away. I never want to play a team who’s got more reason to win that Sunday than any other teams.
yeah when I heard Davis died on Saturday
I knew the Raiders were going to be fired up and it would be a tough game. I also agree with you on the win in Baltimore.

I have the same feeling!
I think we leave Baltimore winning 20-13. The same feeling I had when we played the Steelers. Another ugly win.
My attitude is like a virgin......I dont give a fuck!
Whoa.
I think this is the first game you’ve predicted less than a twenty-point margin of victory. Good omen or bad omen? I can’t tell. I’ll just be happy if we get away injury-free, though. And with Pollard and Vonta roaming the field, that might be tough.
Thats funny you say that cause thats what I was thinking when I put that score in.
I think our offense has taken a step back a little. The first five games I felt our offense could put up 30 points on anybody. This defense will be hard to score on. I hope we come away injury free as well. Go Texans
My attitude is like a virgin......I dont give a fuck!
we better win this game
its one of the 12 common opponents we share with the BE-SFs. 14 if you count us v. them.
We basically play the same schedule.
my Z key can't take another free agent flurry
Happens with the Colts and Jags too
That’s just how NFL scheduling works. Our division plays two other divisions (8 common opponents), each other twice (6 common), and the two uncommon this year are Raiders and Dolphins, the 3rd place teams in the two AFC divisions we don’t play entirely this year. We were 3rd in the south last year, so we play the 3rd placed teams in the West and East, while the Tits play the last placed teams in those divisions.

No thanks
That guy has multiple personalities and gets stabbed by his wife. Save that drama for Dallas.
I wish we could hire coaches without "having grown up in Houston" being a job requirement.
actually knowing that it was a personality disorder makes him more valueable.
I’d definitely trade a 3rd for him.
Maybe 5th rounder but not a 3rd or 4th.
We need those 3rd and 4th round picks to create depth while 1st and 2nd rounders are used for starters. 5th-7th are hit and miss, project players.
