Shades of '96?

On the Anderson INT last night, if Anderson had not been in his position then Valentine was right there for the INT too. Great coverage by both.

This is something I've noticed on this streak, about the D. How there is often multiple guys around the ball and around the tackle.

Hafley, during film session, pauses the film.....when he pauses it, if you're not in the frame.... you're not doing your job. He points it out in front of the whole team. Everyone knows their job and they try to make everyone interchangeable and there is no communication issues, like Barry or Pettine or Capers.

Do your job. Very Belichick like.

Yes cherry picking but showing the defense down the stretch as they head into the playoffs. Last 6 weeks before Thanksgiving until now.

Numbers a little skewed due to the shutout they just pitched but even if you take the shutout, out of the equation it's still damn good defense. Can't really ask for more than that in this current NFL which is clearly geared towards the offense.

I mean, how many holding calls on Rashaan Gary should've been called on Monday Night? Defense has to keep fighting through all the

I noticed that guy made a point on the Cox sack highlight, saying "... while being held...". Of course, it was obvious, yet no flag.
Not that it would've made a difference, but still, make the call and give the team the option to accept/decline.

One thing I’ve noticed about the defense under Hafley, especially in the secondary, is that the number of busted coverages and miscommunication seems close to non-existent. With two rookies starting most of the season (Williams and Bullard). Strange to see that since in every defense since Charles Woodson left regardless of coordinator there have ALWAYS been coverage busts! Good coaching, for sure, and having X playing centerfield certainly helps!



Finally investing in safeties and off-ball linebackers seems to have been a good thing, go figure.
