Curious to see the spags burrow chess match. Burrow started the season dominating man coverage then looked a lot less dominant against Denver (assume they played a lot of man?). They have a damn good secondary. Our secondary is good too but good enough for this challenge or is burrow nearly as flawless against man as he was pegged? Or do we fake aggressiveness and play safer like we stumped dak.
Feel like spags is gonna play this aggressive as hell. Attack burrow, play aggressive man and go for boom bust. We may give up some big plays but we have the offense to recover. The minute we get an edge spags gets more creative and more aggressive, and opposing offenses start feeling like they need to press. If the gap widens spags goes berzerk with his blitzes.
Feel like we’re giving burrow something he’s not used to. A lot of teams have been playing him safe. Since safe zone is en vogue this year. But spags is having success bucking that trend by being creative as hell with his blitz packages. Good test for our defense with burrow and a good test for burrow too. This matchup between our defense and burrow will be super interesting.
