They interviewed DJ yesterday and was asked about him blitzing on every play. He then commented and said, well I will continue to line up and cover the TE and go into coverage, but the defense is working on their blitzes packages which he will have a bigger role in.
This to me is great news. I don’t seem to recall DJ blitzing at all under Crennel, but I do remember the big hits DJ put on Qb’s years ago that completely helped a very poor defense. Over the last two years, I have Read more…

Quote:
Chris Ault, father of the pistol offense, told me one QB who’d be really good at running it would be: Alex Smith!
Yes, the QB who was replaced by Colin Kaepernick. Ault said when he was at Nevada and Smith was at Utah, he thought he’d be perfect for what they were trying to develop.
