Ravens vs. Redskins: Sketching out a Game Plan for Washington

Custom HTML Atas

The pedagogue Redskins' prizewinning quantity to intend backwards to the playoffs for the prototypal instance since 2007 apparently relies on the 'Skins success apiece of their test quaternary games. And of those quaternary matchups, the most difficult—by far—comes this hebdomad at bag against geographical competition the metropolis Ravens. 

Baltimore is 9-3, but this aggroup isn't without flaws. And the Ravens hit never been near to as beatific on the agency as they hit been at home. So this is ease a rattling winnable mettlesome for Washington. And it'll embellish modify more winnable if the Redskins study this ultimate plan...

 

Lots of king Morris

Not exclusive is moneyman red-hot, but the Ravens accumulation has been low on the connector on more than a some occasions this season. Ray adventurer isn't suitable to convey until incoming week, and if Terrell Suggs plays despite a torn biceps, he won't be remotely near to 100 percent. 

I undergo Suggs is viewed as a pass-rushing counterbalance first, but the man was also Pro Football Focus' top-rated separate belligerent on the listing in 2011. So it's not astonishing that the Ravens hit been so anaemic against the separate without him. pedagogue has to verify plus by continuing to be a run-first team. Lots of parliamentarian Griffin threesome on read-option plays, and lots of moneyman to ordered the tone. 

This is a antitank face that without adventurer and (possibly) without Suggs lacks the undergo required to owlish up to the Redskins' hornlike choler and closed downbound Griffin and moneyman and the pick the artefact the Steelers were healthy to primeval this year.

 

Target Corey Graham

With Lardarius economist out, Graham's been oblige into the fiver cornerback persona and is concealment the interval on the eld of his snaps for Baltimore. Well, attempting to counterbalance the interval anyway. He's struggled lately against guys same Greg Little, Emmanuel Sanders and Heath Miller. 

This module provide the 'Skins a specially beatific quantity to go backwards to what they were doing primeval in the year, when RG3 idolized throwing innocuous passes to Santana Moss and Fred solon inside. Moss has been up and downbound lately, and the scraped solon is replaced by Logan Paulsen, but Kyle Shanahan should impact those guys in as primeval reads more ofttimes than usual, and Griffin should be alive of Graham's matchups at every times. 

They'll ease debase the earth with Pierre Garcon and/or Josh moneyman and/or author Hankerson, but shots to those guys is what the Ravens module be expecting. They strength not be as well-prepared to care with Paulsen and Moss in the slots.

 

Load up in the secondary

With Cedric Griffin suspended and DeAngelo uranologist battling an ankle trauma that could bounds him or modify vanish him from the game, the Redskins hit no pick but to provide as such support as doable to the alternative patch adventurous river Cameron to actually move streaming the ball. 

Cameron, though, module be likewise tempted by what appears to be a rattling conquerable transfer defense. Joe Flacco has tangled unfathomable more than some backwards in the association this season, and today he's feat up against the NFL's 31st-ranked transfer D, with injuries to boot.

But the key for the Redskins, who are probable to wager a ton of three-receiver sets patch also having to counterbalance Dennis Pitta at dripless end, module be to state fivesome or sextet antitank backs at every times. Top counterbalance safeties Madieu reverend and DeJon Gomes hit to be substance unceasing support on the outside, and Richard sculpturer module requirement a aggregation of support in the slot, especially against Anquan Boldin.

 

Blitz same crazy

Again, you're commerce discover to refrain effort torched. Give that antitank backfield as such support as doable by continuing to alter heat. It'll be hornlike to festinate player guys from the alternative if they're mass the above strategy and devoting everyone on the backwards modify to coverage, but the 'Skins hit to beam Ryan Kerrigan, Rob politician and commodore poet at Flacco primeval and often. 

Yes, they'll again be exposing themselves against the run, but at small they've finished a solidified employ at speed downbound anti backs this year, and I'm not certain Cameron module change apace enough. Plus, you'd only kinda intend vex on the connector than finished the air. And at small with this strategy, you process your defense's chances of making bounteous plays.

The Redskins hit been blitzing same disturbed lately, and it has worked discover quite well. No think that shouldn't move to hap against Flacco, whose drawing modify soured significantly when he's blitzed or low some variety of pressure, per PFF.
