Interesting new 3-2-6 defense

[ben]

I think we can all agree the best defense is Coach Janky Spanky’s patented “11 Sean Taylor’s on the field” formation

We’ve run this package numerous times..in fact..everybody runs this package on 3rd n long

If I had a nickel for every dime package that is run in college and NFL I'd be a rich man!

This type of thinking by the coaches is going to be key when we take down Clemson for the ACC title THIS SEASON.

 

[TruCane81]

This doesn’t look formidable with knowles in there honestly

He won’t be when we get to Charlotte.

Probably a Tite front. ISU loves it. Teams are running it more and more. 303 on the DL, 2 ILBs, 6 guys out rolling through coverages and blitzes.

No D used to run it as his Goal Line package.

One of the only dudes who could have probably played 10 positions in college. At 6' 3" 230, probably could have played WDE/Edge in a pinch, all three LB spots, some boundary corner, and obviously both Safety spots. Probably could have played a little RB, WR, and TE too. To be clear, I'm half-joking, but I'm not sure I've ever seen an athlete like that dude in my life. He was a big-framed LB with Cornerback feet and Shooting Guard vert. Unique.

*** that. We gonna get run all over

I'd expect that personnel grouping with Amari Carter (or Finley) and Hall alternating as heavy blitzers and Derrick Smith in place of Knowles. The lineup would look closer to this:

DE Hill (standing up)
DE Rousseau (standing up)
DE Garvin (standing up)
LB Pinckney
LB Shaq
DB Bandy
DB Bladesye
DB Ivey
DB Finley/Carter
DB Smith
DB Hall

You can blitz a LB and a S and still drop 6. Nothing new here. Basically, madness on 3rd and 10+. This is what I hope we keep Franks in on 08/24. Please.

I love it, we have a lot of talent in the secondary, great athletes. Put your athletes on the field and unleash them. I said it all last year. When Smith and Carter were on the field it was something to watch. These dudes can run, hit and play the ball. Watch Smith be the breakout guy this year

isn't that basically what is known as a dime package? Probably for obvious passing situations.

Exactly, but most likely with a STRIKER!!!

Striker to me is just a safety playing the role of lb along the line of scrimmage in a dime look. All this jargon to me is just smoke. Just line them up and play!

My understanding, a traditional dime package includes 4 DL, MLB, 4 CB, 2 Safeties

Never mind, Its called a dime 3-2-6 package.

 

[Damiencane86]

In that package/3rd and long I'd go with: rousseau, ford, garvin, pinck, finley, bandy, ivey, blades, smith, carter, and hall.

I always understood a dime package as having 6 d backs however you want to configure it. Nickel is having 5 d backs, etc.

Knowles is gonna make a big play in a big game this year & make all of us eat our words. I could just see it.

 

[SinCityCane]

Well said. Banda likes him & nothing is going to change his mind. Banda has seen him play in important games & if he's still giving him 1st team reps this close to the opener its for a reason.

Banda waiting on Knowles' breakout game like

I've previously seen this gif and I still waited just to be sure.

Diaz always ran a 3-2-6 as his 3rd down package. Ran it 2016 and last season.

I smell a blitz

Lol. Yes

semantics in my opinion. The striker is basically a LB hybrid...just get the best athletes on the field
