Hungary

Offense:

Playbook WCO with layered concepts. 60/40 Pass run.

 

Las Vegas is going through some growing pains this week. Kwity is out with injury. Brian Burns is having his worst season as a professional and had 0 pressures last week. Ojulari, Kneeland, Braswell and Isaac are all backups that have smaller snap counts or haven't played at all.  They are going to struggle drawing up pressure from their edges alone.  On their interior Leonard Williams is out. Michael Pierce is doubtful. That leaves two rookie DTs in Fiske and Newton as well as Larry Ogunjobi. Since Fiske is doing decently in pressures as a 3-4 end, he will be our double block focus this week. Without Fiske and with the shell of Brian Burns Las Vegas doesn't have a pass rush. There isn't pressure coming at Goff unless he sends additional blitzers. The pocket is clean.

 

In coverage Las Vegas lost Awuzie this week, Carter struggled last week coming off injury. This leaves Horn and Mike Jackson as quality CBs in Las Vegas DB room. Injury bugs suck my dudes.

 

With no pressure coming from the dline and a depleted CB room due to injury we are going to utilize a lot more play action this week. Goff with time is a dangerous man and having burner Johnson, speedy receiver Ridley, the always a mismatch DHop and the knee-high knight in Austin we feel we have a significant advantage against their defense.

 

We will run 3 WR 1 RB 75% of the game but we do plan to have 4WR sets on display today as someone will get to face a IRL backup corner. DJ will move in and out of the slot to have different looks against their secondary in case they are playing sides of the field instead of man. Play action will work swimmingly this week as we look to test the Vegas defense at all levels this week. Ertz of course will be used as the safety blanket and will be flexed out wide occasionally.

 

To set up the play action we will have a running game made up of Mostert and Akers. White will see a few snaps when running routes, but we want to focus our running game into the other two. with so many injuries we should have decent success finding running lanes against Las Vegas patchwork dline.

 

TLDR Vegas is dealing with injuries across their dline and secondary which is creating vast advantages for Hungary to surgically pick apart their defense. 


 

Defense:

On the line, LV has a good group, and realistically, they’re going to have the better of it in run blocking, which is why we are going to rely on our one person advantage in the front seven to keep Lamar from having the time he wants in the pocket. Logan Wilson and Shaq Barrett will have to be ready to blitz to flush Lamar out in passing downs if LV’s plan is like last week with all the downfield throws. In running plays, the two of them should be able to handle whatever gets past our DL.

 

Lamar’s running ability is one factor to worry about, but between quality Edges in Anderson and Oweh, linebackers looking for designed runs, and Harrison Smith as our box safety spy, we should be fine. Lamar will run a lot, but he won’t get too far, and if it’s on Lamar to be both the rush game and the passing game for LV, they’ll be asking a lot from him, and we don’t think he’ll be able to handle it all. He’d take a lot of hits that way.

 

Quinyon Mitchell will finally be trusted on an island with Mike Evans. He’s been excellent to start the year and we believe he can effectively cover Evans, especially deep. With LV’s other receiver being Downs, we can put Carlton Davis on him and be ok. Byard will be playing single high and is there to bail out either CB that loses their guy deep or anyone else who is uncovered.

 

Tre Brown will play in 3 WR. Riley Moss will play in 4 WR and will cover TE2 in two wide. We will trust them to play aggressively near the line, to add time to the route development.

Week 4: Las Vegas Gameplan (at home vs Hungary Hippos)

Chapter 3: Jazz Isn’t Music

IR slowly gazes out over the ramparts of Heart Attack Grillisium, the palatial desert home of the Bangers, and spies the never-ending siege lines of New Orleans. For days now, his defense has stood alone, repelling attack after attack from the Jazz. His body now weary, his fierce dark beard singed by gunpowder, and eyes hollow from lack of sleep, but his spirit and those of his defenders remains unbroken.

“Sir,” his valet Mr. Horn says meekly, “any word from the rest of the men?”

“No, but fear not, Mr. Horn. We have all the men we need right here. For fewer men a greater share of glory.”

As night falls, the smooth saxophone of war echoes across the tattered battlefield, driving the Jazz forward. IR climbs onto the ramparts, almost daring the Jazz to fire.

“Men, to your battle stations! This is our finest hour. Ladders will be broken, their will shattered, and NO QUARTER GIVEN!”

“NO MERCY! NO MERCY! NO MERCY!” the men chant, their voices rising in unison. Ladders and climbing hooks rattle against the walls. Wave after wave of musicians scramble to the top just to be repelled. Their horrific jazz riffs fading from earshot as they tumble from the ramparts to the dirt below. Suddenly, a shell explodes overhead, knocking IR’s tricorne hat off and him to the ground. Two Jazz boys leap on top of him. IR draws his pistol and fires, killing one. Left with naught but a dagger, he lunges at the lone attacker who grabs IR’s wrist and a life or death struggle for control of the blade ensues.

When all seemed lost, a cloaked figure leaps down and, with great force, kicks the assailant over the walls. “Thank you, stranger. I owe you a life debt,” IR gasps, catching his breath. The figure turns, dramatically unveiling his cloak. Standing before IR, covered in grease, powdered sugar dust forming a cloud around him, and reeking of seafood, is BB.

“Don’t worry. I brought snacks,” BB laughs. The beleaguered defenders’ jaws dropped as a horde of muscle (and a few skinny skill-positions guys BB tolerates) dropped their cloaks in unison to reveal battle armor – the Banger’s offense had arrived to turn the tide. “Beefy men, Tally-Oh! Our quarry is before you. Fall in on your officers, tall to small, give me two ranks!” The men rallied behind their leaders, rejuvenated by the influx of fresh troops and orange slices, forming a line of battle.

“Would you like to do the honors?” BB asks.

“Of course,” IR replies with a smile. “READY… AIM… FIRE! FIX BAYONETS! CHARGE!”

The surge of the Bangers swept the weary Jazz troops from the field of war.

 

“Where did you come from?” IR asks, still catching his breath.

“Oh, we flew in,” BB says, gesturing to their fleet docked on Heart Attack Grillisium’s field.

“Boats sail,” IR retorts.

“Mine fly,” BB answers, grinning. “So, who’s next?”

“Hungry,” replies IR.

“Excellent! TO THE BOATS BOYS. Goulash for everyone,” yells BB.

IR grabs BB by the shoulders and shoves him in a chair. “The match is here. Please sit down,” IR sighs.

 

Offensive Game Plan

Base Formation (~60%): 11 Personnel (1 RB, 1 TE, 3 WR)
Secondary Formation (~40%): 12 Personnel (1 RB, 2 TE, 2 WR)
Play Mix (1st half): 40% Pass, 60% Run

Play Mix (2nd half): 60% Pass, 40% Run

BB’s offense comes into this week with a gameplan set to lure Hungary into a battle they can’t win, trap them in place, and then flank their position with deep shots. 1st and 2nd half plan below:

1st Half – Setting the Trap:

In scouting this match-up it is clear that Hungary is a squad that is banged up. They have a severely depleted DL and only enough LBs to run the Nickel (without the ability to pivot). To exploit this weakness we execute the 1st stage of our battle plan by coming out running the ball heavily with an unbalanced clip of ~60%. Our OL is built to run the ball and PR’s injured DL (outside of Will Anderson) is putting out replacement level talent that won’t be able to hold the line of scrimmage against us. Brian Robinson Jr. is going to get the lion share of our carries and we want him probing all weaknesses with B gap, C gap, and off-tackle runs. When we add in designed runs by Lamar Jackson and the heavy use of read-option we create a head-ache on the ground that few BDL run games can achieve.

Over 40% of these carries will be directly behind Quenton Nelson and Penei Sewell to the right where we can sling-shot Brian Robinson to the 2nd level and challenge the Hungary LBs to make big plays or get gouged on the ground. An added devastating wrinkle we add is that for all our praise of Isaiah Likely’s strength in our passing game, through 3 weeks he is the NFL’s highest graded run blocking TE. We deploy him heavily to the right of Penei Sewell and create a 3 man meat hammer that will put Hungary in a bind. They either are forced to move Harrison Smith full-time into the box to stem the bleeding or they accept a game where we dictate the terms and conditions, enjoy a massive time of possession advantage, and can’t be stopped on the ground.

-        Brian Robinson Jr. getting a ~70% carry share, with Jaylen Wright and Zamir White being change of pace.

-        Deebo Samuel may have surprise availability. If available we will have him on a snap count (<15 snaps), but will deploy him as a scary wrinkle in our run game where we can get him the ball off designed read option plays from Lamar Jackson.

2nd Half – Springing the Trap:

We come out in the 2nd half and present Hungary with the ultimate challenge they will fail to stand up to. At this point to stem the bleeding they will have moved Harrison Smith into the box (and if they haven’t we need not worry because we have already won). This is where BB shines as an offensive coordinator and exploits the zone defensive scheme from Hungary. We hit them with play-action pass after play-action pass (to keep the run defenders committed) to identify and attack the Hungary single high zone. BB sends Mike Evans and Josh Downs deep to stretch the field, pulling his lone safety in coverage into defending multiple deep threats. To create additional space, we attack the zone coverage with Isaiah Likely and Jauan Jennings on slant, dig, and post routes to target openings in the middle of the field that the vertical threat of Evans and Downs have created.

This play-action passing attack will also be highly effective due to the Hungary personnel that are out this game. Hungary is a defense built to rely on its elite constructed defensive line. But, with both Maxx Crosby and Calijah Kancey out, we are not going to experience interior DL pressure given our OL strength there and even with Odafe Oweh subbing in the problem is this forces Hungary to sell out on all-out pass rush against strong OTs. Our OL buys us plenty of time for Lamar to execute the play action and make them pay on long-developing deep routes.

On the occasions where Lamar Jackson has a typical drop-back we hit them with Horizontal Stretching (Giggity) to attack the sidelines with quick outs and corner routes. Goal being to force the Hungary secondary to cover as much ground as possible, while opening the middle for Isaiah Likely and our RB who leaks out from the backfield. Lamar Jackson is given the freedom to improvise and put the ball on the ground on QB runs when Hungary elects to not spy him.

Personnel notes:

-        Isaiah Likely is TE1 and rarely leaves the field. Will Dissly comes in during 12 personnel for enhanced run blocking in place of Josh Downs.

-        Newly acquired Jauan Jennings (debuted last week) has performed exceptionally well as a Banger and allows us to significantly increase our use of 11 personnel this week.

-        Erik McCoy is down for a significant time with a groin injury (Bangers’ documentary available upon request covering these events), but we are excited to welcome Evan Brown into the starting lineup between our stud OGs in Quenton Nelson and Joe Thuney.

Defensive Game Plan

Base Defense: Nickel (4 DL, 2 LB, 3 CBs, 2 S)

Coverage: Cover 2 (65% Man, 35% Zone)

Blitz Percentage: 50% (from alternating pass rushing LBs)

There are 3 Keys to our defensive gameplan: (1) Get pressure on Jared Goff via LB blitzes, (2) Dedicate constant resources to defending against RB screens, and (3) Force Goff and the Hungary WR core to beat win against our secondary.

Pressure Goff – 50% blitz percentage:

We continue deploying the Bangers’ defense in its trusty Nickel base. The major advantage our DL has in this contest is the banged up state of the Hungary RB core. Mostert comes into the week questionable, Ekeler is confirmed out, Cam Akers is whatever, and the lions share of the responsibility will fall on Rachaad White. White is dangerous out of the backfield, but he is not a significant threat to gauge us on the ground. As such, our pass rush and blitz strategy is to (a) show blitz all game from both my LBs (Robert Spillane and Leo Chenal), (b) alternate sending Spillane and Chenal on LB blitzes to assist our DL to get pressure on Goff and confuse the Hungary OL on which blocking assignments they need to handle on each given play, and (c) Braden Fiske gets the start on the DL this week and is given free reign to pressure Goff up the middle this week (Fiske took a massive step forward against a tough 49ers squad in week 3 and had 7 QB hurries, making it 11 already in his rookie year).

-        If Hungary comes out and wants to make this a run-heavy game we will be initially surprised, but pleased. We don’t think they have the personnel to execute that plan and our adjustment in that scenario would be to simply task Xavier Woods with supporting our LBs in run defense and to sub in Quan Martin periodically to spell him (unlikely to be a needed shift in this weeks plan).

Take Away Goff’s Safety Valve:

Our blitz strategy will be supported by the critical element of spending resources all game to lock down the safety valve that Hungary will try to set-up for Goff with designed screens for his RBs out of the backfield. With our LB’s showing blitz and alternative in who is being sent on the attack, the LB held back in coverage has 1 job and 1 job only. Sell out to spy the RB and close in to break-up screen passes/short throws by Goff to his RBs. These will not be allowed this game. We are going to force Goff to air it out against us and try to win that way.

Hungary’s WRs v. the Bangers’ Secondary:

This is where the climax of the battle takes place. We sent PR the invite, we got his RSVP, we have our LBs bouncing unwanted RB guests, and now we are ready to dance. We challenge this Hungary receiving core that is not deep to beat us. We are utilizing the cover 2 against them and, in a further bid to challenge Goff’s reads throughout the game, we won’t be putting any specific CB assignments out. We don’t want pre-snap movement to help Goff identify when we are utilizing man versus zone coverage and we trust Jaycee Horn, Michael Carter II, and Mike Jackson to fight this war no matter the Hungary receiver they get. Jevon Holland and Xavier Woods will be our 2 high safeties in man and we are excited at the interception hunting opportunities our strategy will create on our pivots to zone. We plan to take this contest to the skies where our secondary knows they are the lynchpin to make this defensive gameplan a success.

Why priority gameplan space was spent on this is beyond me:

"Ojulari, Kneeland, Braswell and Isaac are all backups that have smaller snap counts or haven't played at all."

Ojulari, Braswell, and Isaac are just developmental roster depth that have never been featured in a single sentence or snap in any of our gameplans to date. 

Kneeland on the other hand has over 100 snaps at edge this season. I appreciate the gamesmanship, but one thing is not like the other.

Kneeland had 

Week 1 - 58% snaps 44 snaps

Week 2 - 31% snaps 18 snaps 

Week 3 - 16% snaps 10 snaps 

Week 4 - 52% after Lawrence left in the 3 qtr after having a foot injury. 36 snaps.

So yes, he has been a relative backup for the Cowboys this season.

Didn't say he wasn't there 3rd Edge when the team is healthy. Your not arguing my point. I'm saying you lumped him in with my development guys that get no where close to his snaps and were suggesting it was a similar situation when it's not.

Homie... Kneeland has played 100/266 total snaps on the season. That's 37%.

Oju is 35% on the season.

Braswell is 31% on the season.

Last guy has none.

Yes they have near the same amount by percentage as each other.

When starters are out you look at the next men up. With Burns only playing 80% on the regular and Kneeland only having backup snaps it shows a lack of endurance to play every snap. They aren't used to playing 100% of the snaps especially at an elite level. Which means depth guys like Oju and Braswell play a factor even if you never have put them into a game plan before. You are calling then projects, developmental guys. When they come into the game to spell your obviously stretched starters they are now liabilities for your defense.

(1) Saying Marshawn Kneeland's snap count percentage is from lack of endurance and not from the obvious that he just had an elite edge in Micah and a strong edge in Lawrence ahead of him is hilarious. He obv has the ability to play the additional snaps.

(2) My DL could have been worn down due to their lack of depth this week. It's a shame the Hungary game plan fails to provide any substantive details on how it's going to execute any facet of its game and goes with a heavily pass/run ratio that doesn't lead to our defense being run down at all.

1. ) You have no proof he has the endurance to play 100% of the snaps on defense. In college the starting safety duo at Western Michigan had over 700 defensive snaps last year. Kneeland had 557. If he can't play 100% of a college football game and is averaging 80% against lesser talent, he isn't going to be playing 100% of the snaps against the best of the best talent. Right now he is showing he can play a little above 50%. We will see in future weeks once he has full control over the starting position how much he can truly play.

2. You plan on blitzing on 50% of the plays. You defensive line is going to get tired. Which speaking of blitzing... I did have a question. 

If you are playing 2 safety high with Holland and Woods back to take away the deep pass, and you are playing Man 65% of the time with a 4-2-5 so the 3 corners are chasing the receiver, your one LBer is blitzing 50% of the time and the other is running after the RB... who in the hell is covering Ertz? Does Ertz just get to run free when you are blitzing?

I don't spend every line of my writeup covering literally every defensive situation. I already write too much. But, if you want to open the floodgates of nitpicking defensive gameplans I'm happy to do so.

Let's start with your interesting choice to lay out how you are doubling Braden Fiske all game. I appreciate how you have already  committed all 5 of your OL against my 4 man pass rush. Then alotted no other plans to protect Goff in the pocket. My heavy blitzing strategy is going unblocked at Goff again and again. Dude is on his back all game bc of there being no plan against the blitz, only hope.

With LV’s other receiver being Downs, we can put Carlton Davis on him and be ok. Byard will be playing single high and is there to bail out either CB that loses their guy deep or anyone else who is uncovered.

 

Tre Brown will play in 3 WR"

This is full coverage plan. Let's see if I have this right:

- Rookie CB on an island against Mike Evans. Good luck.

- Carlton Davis on Josh Downs. Downs had a great week, but no issue with your plan here.

- Earlier in the plan you committed Harrison Smith into the box as a spy like we expected and wanted to get in this matchup.

- Wait what. Can I possibly be reading this right. Byard is the Single High Safety, while also being responsible for the 2 guys your leaving uncovered in Jauan Jennings and Isaiah Likely? That man must be njghtcrawler with the teleportation he is doing.

This is the full coverage plan from PR that deals with what we are running since we planned no WR4. Let's see if I have this right:

- Rookie CB on an island against Mike Evans. Good luck.

- Carlton Davis on Josh Downs. Downs had a great week, but no issue with your plan here.

Didn't want to edit original without note. Was clarifying that addressed "full coverage plan from PR on the lines addressing the offensive alignment we utilized (considering we planned no cover 4 in the matchup)

Tre Brown will play in 3WR... so... guess who covers Jennings..  that leaves the two Linebackers in Wilson or Shaq Thompson to cover the TE.. the point was to point out with your defensive strategy you have commited everyone. Corners to WRs, safeties playing back, a blitzer from LB on every other play, a LB covering the RB. You don't have anyone left and Ertz is the planned safety valve for Goff so literally gets to toss to Ertz all game if someone blitzes because there is no coverage. When he is flexed out, he gets even more yardage. It's probably the easiest game of pitch and catch.
