in their lanes while getting pressure on the kid. Easier said than done but ND has the ends and backers to do it IF they play fast like they did last year.

Question for everyone about our defense for this week/ IMO stopping this team appears more - THEISMANCARR - 6:37pm 9/9/25 (31) [View All]
- Probably run man under zone. It doesn't seem like their inability - DiscoRick - 12:17pm 9/11/25

  - Denbrock isn't figuring anything out. His stuff is his stuff, is his stuff, etc,..... - Clem - 8:25am 9/11/25
    - Jayden Daniels and their WR corp made denbrock look like a genius - ndphysics - 11:30am 9/11/25
      - I dunno, seems he pretty ingeniously figured out how to neuter our run game while simultaneously - DiscoRick - 12:11pm 9/11/25
        Fully agree. Maybe Riley was the right fit for our preferred offense. If freeman wants - ndphysics - 12:56pm 9/11/25
        ND won a lot of games big last year, and dominated pretty well in the first two playoff - THEISMANCARR - 11:25pm 9/11/25
        I don’t think many of us expect our QB to be a running back. I think we envision - ndphysics - 4:37pm 9/12/25
        
        Leonard was perfect for their offense. - DiscoRick - 8:45pm 9/11/25

- Hope that A&M isn't loaded with huge NFL O linemen like Miami!!! [NT] - irishslovak - 8:57am 9/10/25
  - Don't know but several beat reporters claim that their oline is better than Miami's [NT] - NDQuebec - 1:10pm 9/10/25
    - Was at the Miami game. 'Cons had 3 times as many "NFL bodies". You could see it during warm ups. [NT] - irishslovak - 2:21pm 9/10/25
      - Watching on TV I thought our D players looked like they had length but lacked bulk. [NT] - ghostwriter - 6:56pm 9/10/25
        Have not seen our D line handled like that since the 'Bama NC game. [NT] - irishslovak - 10:14pm 9/10/25
- Keep a fast LB as a spy on the QB. Don’t let his legs beat us. Make him throw into coverage [NT] - ndphysics - 7:58pm 9/9/25
  - With the speed ND has at LB they shouldn't have to use a spy. [NT] - Clem - 5:20am 9/10/25
  - I have thought about the spy but the downside is that it creates 10 one on one situations. We have - THEISMANCARR - 12:03am 9/10/25
- Zone + keep the QB in front of us [NT] - KWIRISH - 7:33pm 9/9/25
  - Guraranteed loss. See Miami game. No pass rush and zone defense = QBs dream. [NT] - oldirish - 1:16pm 9/10/25
    - Zone + blitz OR man + blitz mix it up [NT] - KWIRISH - 11:27pm 9/11/25
    - Exactly. Given time, even great corners lose a step on a good receiver. Get the qb [NT] - murph78 - 6:27pm 9/10/25
  - Our zone sucked. Guys played slow. [NT] - faircatchcorby - 11:27am 9/10/25
  - Didn't ND do that against Miami??? Allowed Beck to look like Tom Brady [NT] - NEPA Irish - 9:10pm 9/9/25
    - Exactly. Have to get in the backfield and create havoc, - Clem - 5:15am 9/10/25
      - Have you seen how fast that QB is? Don't admire him, find a way to best defend him. The runner - THEISMANCARR - 9:06am 9/10/25

        I'm hoping it's a "What me worried" Alfred E. Newman moment. [NT] - THEISMANCARR - 2:15pm 9/10/25
- Man coverage, speed and KVA in as much as possible. - LanceManion - 6:58pm 9/9/25
  - And hoping Bryce Young will play to his potential [NT] - NDQuebec - 1:12pm 9/10/25
    - 100% - he needs to show up big time [NT] - LanceManion - 4:46pm 9/10/25
