Vic, as I watched the San Diego/Pittsburgh game Monday night,
one aspect of Rivers is he seems to be very effective when
blitzed. Do you agree? If yes, do you believe Capers will alter
his game plan for more seven- and eight-man coverages and fewer
blitzes?
Philip Rivers is a veteran quarterback who knows his way around
a football field and put on a sensational game-management
performance on the Chargers’ would-be, game-winning touchdown
drive. It was artistic listening to him calling out the
adjustments and protections. Be that as it may, the Packers’
pass rush is on fire, and I don’t think Coach Capers wants to
throw water on that fire. Coach Capers has a bag full of
blitzes, and he used some this past Sunday I had never
previously seen or had seen and forgot them. I expect to see
more this Sunday. Welcome to Blitz Bay.

On your wisdom from your dad, buy and don’t sell, could it be he
got that from Proverbs 23, “Buy the truth and do not sell it”?
If so, then I think I know why I keep coming back to read you
every day.
I doubt that’s where he got it, and I doubt he was attaching any
life message to it; I’m the one doing that. What does it mean to
me? It’s simple: When you buy, you invest. When you sell, you
cash out or quit. I want to always be invested. “Never
celebrate; only win.”

Vic, what’s worse, watching soccer or pumping gas in sub-zero
temperatures? It sure felt like winter is right around the
corner this morning.
Let’s see, if I watch soccer, I’ll get sick to my stomach, but
if I pump gas in 50-below-zero wind chill, I could die. I’ll
risk the wind chill.

Vic, do you think McCarthy and other coaches save their more
elaborate plays and schemes for crunch-time December football?
It’s just the opposite. Coaches will always have a surprise play
or formation ready for the next game, but late in the season,
when the games matter most, they rely on the plays that have
worked the best, especially at crunch time in those games. Why?
Because it’s about execution. Do what you know you can do. Oh,
yeah, your opponent knows it’s coming, but if he can’t stop it,
why should you quit doing it? I keep preaching this sermon, but
I won’t apologize for repeating it because it’s the truth and I
desperately want fans to understand and appreciate the true
meaning of strategy. It’s about doing what you do best, and it’s
about matchups. If you like strategy, then focus on matchups.
Here’s an example of what I mean: Coach Capers was talking
yesterday about pass-rush strategy he uses. He said he’ll take
his worst pass rusher and put him over the offense’s premier
pass blocker, probably the left tackle, with the idea it’ll
waste the opponent’s best pass blocker on a guy who isn’t a
pass-rush threat. In other words, use a run stuffer on a pass
blocker to eat the block and allow the best pass rushers to work
against the offense’s less-effective pass blockers. That’s the
kind of strategy I love because it schemes personnel, not
schemes. Plays are meaningless if you can’t execute them. Plays
are wonderful when personnel are matched up to gain an execution
advantage. Don’t scheme schemes, scheme personnel.

I watch games with my two sons-in-law, both in their early
thirties, both avid fans. However, while one is old school,
loyal to the core, the other has become a fantasy fan. I watch
him as he impressively juggles his two television screens,
smartphone and tablet passionately, reacting to the individual
player points, regardless of the player’s team or conference. I
see how much media time is now devoted to the fantasy fan. It’s
the globalization of the individual fan. Is this the future?
Yes, it is the future and I have fallen victim to it, too. Last
Saturday, I found myself juggling three college games at one
time. I had the TV remote set so I could jump back and forth
between two games, and in my other hand I held my phone, which
was monitoring the progress of another game. I was manic for
information. I was watching three games but wasn’t seeing any of
them. This has to stop. My Saturdays are out of control.

What’s your strategy when winning the opening coin flip? I like
deferring to get the ball after halftime, but I’m not sure it’s
rational to turn down a possession.
I’m a defensive guy. I wanna stop you. I wanna stop your run,
sack your quarterback, force you to punt and let you know that’s
how it’s going to be all day. So, I defer.
<b>Agree</b>
