Byard would most likely fill the role if Vaccaro is unable to go. I don't like Byard in man coverage with no help. I prefer Hooker on the RBs and Byard playing the deep middle. Either way, the 3 safety look is the only way we stop the backs out of the backfield unless Long plays out of his mind in coverage.

They must not think Hooker can do it then because he hasn’t really ever played that kind of role for us. He is a deep zone player as seen by his play yesterday.

I just remember Byard playing in the box a lot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyle021 Posted November 24, 2020 Report Share Posted November 24, 2020 We need Vaccaro back to play ILB with Byard and Hooker playing intermediate and deep. Vrable will figure it out. charleytolar 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evans, Adoree, and Wilson have essentially been out all year. Jonnu, AJ, Clowney, Vaccaro, Cory Davis, Saffold etc. have all missed games due to injury. It's not the worst ever but it's pretty bad. Keep RT healthy and you have a shot. Lose him and the season is lost. Pretty simple. OILERMAN 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the shots he's taken the last 3 games, it's amazing he hasn't missed any time. That WR pedigree, that ability to take a hit, is a big part of his success and separates him from many other QBs. That said, just because he can take a hit doesn't mean we should be happy seeing him take so many hits! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcibiades Posted November 24, 2020 Report Share Posted November 24, 2020 Whichever of the safeties the coaches think is the best fit is fine by me. My point is that we don't have a LB that can replace Brown in this role. So it will be Hooker or Vaccaro, because they are the only ones who can do it. But either way, we lose something in run stopping. That can be fixed other ways. They need to rush Evans more, frankly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I checked the stats because it seemed like a big difference & the Ravens had 13 combined QB hits/TFL to the Titans 5. The Colt game was about the same. Tannehill really played well, along with Brown's 2 monster YAC plays & Henry being Henry to over come that to a degree. It amazes me about the Ravens, no matter their roster or injuries, they always cause havoc on defense. I don't get it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm worried that Hooker goes right back to a sub role with Vaccaro back to playing every snap & Compton taking Brown's role. Vaccaro has absolutely killed us in coverage this year. Killed us. With Brown out it would be borderline suicide to put Vaccaro back out there as the starting safety. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
