It was clearly a joke; lighten up, Frances.

Cody Alexander makes these charts for defensive coverage, blitz, and disguise rates. It'll be interesting to see how it changes throughout the season. I merged the week 1 chart and last seasons end of year chart for a quick comparison. I wish he would've kept the layout the same.
Blitz/Stunt
-Stunts are way up and simulated pressures are down. Adding Verse and Fiske probably helps increase the stunts.
Coverage
-Doubled Cover-0 and nearly doubled Cover-2

The D kept the team in the game after being down 17-3. The O had a chance to close it out in regulation and didnt get it done. The D held detroit to a fg on the last drive to get to OT. The coin toss was unfortunate and the D went right back out there. Would have liked to get a stop but cant blame the D for being gassed at that point. Its a team game and the team didnt finish, but the loss isnt on 1 side of the ball or the other, both had the opportunity to close it out and both failed. Its still early and we have a lot to be excited about.

Gonna need a heavy dose of nasty at NT and ILB. Saw a big nastiness void in those areas Sunday night.

Well, we have to count on rookies for both of those I think. Fiske and Speights are going to have to develop their games quickly. But if they both do, we will be trouble.

Exhausting is 8,500+ posts in three years.
But I understand, some people just love to hear themselves talk ..... and argue.

Loved the way Verse looked. Not at all worried about Fiske, I thought he showed very well too for his first NFL game, in a hostile road environment, against arguably the best o-line in the NFL. Ditto for Verse re: doing what he did against such stout opposition right off the hop. There is quite a jump from college to NFL in terms of game speed and sheet strength/size of opposition. Hugely impressive they both did not skip a beat. I think their chemistry really helped there, playing together at FSU already.
They were doubling Fiske quite a bit, which I think says a lot, not sure why so many are down on Fiske's performance. It is hard to get pressure up the middle. I think people forget that after years of Aaron Donald. AD99 was literally a unicorn. You cannot expect interior players to "flash" that much or be that disruptive, so get Donald's tape out of your memory. It isn't reality. The fact Donald was comparable if not statistically better than almost every edge is mind-blowing. Because you really cannot compare the two positions. I think Fiske did well. A few times though, I saw him swipe for the Goff while being held up a few feet away, and not quite reaching Jared. The short arms were noticeable a few times, and for the worst. A lankier players likely could have reached Goff and dragged him down. But all in all, happy with both these FSU products, I think Verse will be the better of the two, unsurprisingly given his draft position, but I think we have two studs.
