Tale of Two DC's who are worlds apart one rising one falling

Coach Macho said:
I'm not even calling for more blitzes, I'd just like us to be more aggressive schematically, using more aggressive principles.

Teams that are blitz heavy give up a lot of big plays. They'll cause a turnover or two, get some sacks or TFL's but then they'll give up a 50 yard TD.

Our principles alone are passive. 2-gapping is passive. Staying in 2-high coverage versus a heavy run team is passive. Spot dropping with your LB's is passive.

1-gap penetration is aggressive. Press coverage is aggressive. Pattern-matching with your LB's is aggressive. Instead of dropping into a soft zone and starring at the QB, run full speed and meet that WR at the apex of his route. Re-route his a$$ instead of letting him run down the seam freely. AGGRESSIVE PRINCIPLES!

Then when you find a good opportunity to send 5 or 6 guys without giving up too much then go for it. If the offense comes out in 3x1 (trips) formation then go ahead and send the backside OLB or Safety on a blitz and play man-to-man on the single WR. Or blitz the OLB from the 3 WR side and roll the Safety down to take his place.

There's plenty ways to be aggressive without giving the offense too much.

Having a great defense at Miami shouldn't have to be rocket science.

I've never seen a worse fit then Golden and Miami.

For what, more excuses.. His teams only win like 1 or 2 games a year
 
For two guys that have done nothing, Golden and Doritos are arrogant beyond belief.

You keep using this same joke. True stuff is funnier. Find some factual material.

Right. It's "elementary" but for some reason not everybody does it.

Golden/Donofrio most certainly are clowns. I just can't seem to comprehend why those two don't see what is blatantly obvious to most everyone else.

Having said that, does anyone think there is any possibility of seeing a defense that is much more aggressive in principle this year? Is it even remotely possible that those two played so passively because of personnel or lack thereof?

Is it possible they may turn these kids loose because we actually have some talent and depth upfront? Personally I think the passive Big Ten thing is too ingrained for them to change much. The most frustrating thing about it is the prospect of wasting talent such as Thomas, Mohamed, McCord Moten, Kamalu, Norton, Harris, Grace, Owens, Burns, Elder and Bush.

.I had to name them to illustrate what an absolute travesty it would be to see their careers wasted playing party cake out of a frog stance, spot dropping and giving 10 yard cushions to WR's.
