Wilson and Lightfoot.

Everyone needs to show up, but I’ll repeat that we shouldn’t expect our pass rush to get home often unless ND does something very different or we get a lead that forces them into deeper drops and routes.

Get your hands up and disrupt passing lanes. Let Moten eat.
 
One thing that will be interesting to see is if heatherman starts playing Wilson on early downs to combat teams going away from the run. Or maybe change the pressure plans for early downs with more 5 man pressures, more stunts

Blount doesn’t offer anything in pass rush but they trust him vs the run more than wilson, that luxury we had last year isn’t the same

As I just said in an other thread, I’ve suggested Blitz Toure. He’s in no-man’s land on 1st downs anyway, so might as well already account for his absence in coverage. Gives another disruption in the A and B gaps without giving a clear picture on RPOs and otherwise when he is over aggressive in the run game on early downs. We must not continue to be vulnerable to the pass on 1st downs.
 
We put him through the A gap a lot last year but not so much this year. Maybe it’s time to go back to it

Have to guard against the run— he has more value there than in a blitz package and as bad as he covers at least he’s there for the run—
He blitzes and never gets to QB- it’s a waste as we can bring more effective pressure
I say “play to strengths”’and let the chips fall

Was literally going to post this word for word. They do fast passing plays. Get your hands up and please don't give ten yard cushions all day

You can run blitz.
 
Run blitz = more effective, yes…. Let him do what he does well and don’t ask more questions

Yep. I’ll tell you what he doesn’t do well: play the pass on early downs. I’m trying to find a way to get him out of that. We cannot have teams hit us with 70+% passes on first downs with high efficiency. UNC absolutely dogged us.
 
Exactly what I suggested— run/run blitz no coverage responsibility…
Did I stutter?
