Interesting nugget in the press conference
1) other than luck still can't throw a football
is 2) we are definitely going to a 4-3. and the one that lovie used in chicago. which i believe was a tampa 2 right? granted a way better version of ours. i can't say i watched too much of the bears during that time so i don't know how much they deviated from the standard dungy version. thoughts on this news? |
Tampa-2 is great if you have an athletic MLB who can drop 20 yards, and a killer DL.
With Chubb, Colts could have 1 of those 2 things... (But I do love the idea of Hooker in a Tampa-2.) |

But a DL of Chubb, Hankins, Wood, Anderson - you know that's not half bad. |
Lovie had Urlacher, Lance Briggs, and that safety who was good for a bit, Mike Brown. That's probably why it seemed like a better version. Pretty sure it was the same flavor of Tampa 2, just with better ingredients.
|
Under Lovie they did run more man concepts, maybe blitzed a little more, but that's about it.

Anyone have details on the Dallas defense from the last two seasons? That is probably the closest approximation to what we can expect here. I find it hard to believe it's that close to a pure Tampa 2 base.

We never had that in Indy except for Booger and that other DT that I cannot remember his name who had the bad knees. 2 or 3 good years in all the time Dungy was in Indy. Those defenses were improved because of inside pressure. Otherwise, our DTs were fricking 265 pound wonders. With Hankins/Woods/Anderson/Hunt/Ridgeway at DT and Sheard/Chubb/Basham/free agent at DE, I think we will have a D-Line that can do the job of a Tampa-2. Simon/Mingo at SSLB with perhaps a free agent/Walker at WSLB leaves our 2nd round pick to be the best ILB we can get; I don't think there are any good MLBs in free agency this year. I think we can get to a Tampa-2 front-7 setup pretty well in 2018. Walk Worthy, |
Good reminder of the Tampa-2 (located here).
