Stopping Denver's offense:
<LI>Do not overpersue the run! Denver's O Line zone blocks, which means they let the Dline chose which way they slant and just keep them going in that direction. Bronco RB's are successful because they are patient and cut back through holes created by persuit. <LI>Run blitz on 1st and 2nd downs. Cheat your safeties up against Griese, their WR's don't have the blazing speed to beat teams deep in the post. <LI>Jam McCaffery at the line. He's a tough S.O.B. who kills zone coverage. Scoring against the Donks: <LI>Test the perimeters. They have small DE's and quick OLB's that can be run against If you have off tackle plays use them! <LI>Pass down the seams. Their safeties are weak vs the pass.If Gonzo doesn't see at least 8 balls.... you'll lose. Sly should eat them up on a play action post pattern, if called. <LI> Pass on 1st down. Denver's interior is very tough against the run. Trying to over power them will NOT work. KC might be better off if Griese plays. Ferotte has a bigger arm and I think KC is vulnerable deep. Edwards and Woods are athletic enough to take away their side of the field against Griese's dip dunk style. The lack of speed in KC's RB's will hurt big time. Greg Robinson vs the tandom of Raye/Elvis is a big mismatch in Denvers favor. Usually I would cheer for KC in this case... but after dealing with obnoxious Chief and K State fans this week... I just don't know..... Donks 24 KC 7 |
