I had no idea we re-hired Sal Sunseri to coach our 3rd down defense.

Or Chavis. Reminds of Spurrier always picking up 3rd and long.

 

[govols/cc]

It was 38 yards.......and he was moving forward in the pocket.

Your comment would have merit if EVERY pass wasn't underthrown.

His accuracy needs work but the yardage is measured from los not where he actually threw it.

 

[Kusotate]

WKU seems to like targeting AJ......

 

[Ohio_Vol]

I just don't understand our complex with third and long.

 

[hatingbamaisawayoflife]

Good grief. Get off field on 3rd

 

[Volumnus 2011]

3rd and Chavis... What the heck

 

[YankeeVol]

I'm gonna need more beer

 

[VeryBest]

I would rather see 3rd and 5 or less than 3rd and 10 or more

 

[governmentmule]

Chavis would be jealous

it would actually be nice to have Chavis back

 

[AJeray4TN]

This is way off topic. But Sapp has been a monster today.

He's impressed me almost more than anyone. Sutton also looks like he will be a stud eventually.

 

[VOLorNuttin]

Is it a sin to call a blitz on 3rd down? The best defenses in the NFL would run a blitz on 3rd and long.

 

[UTandUNC]

You started the stupid thread, not me.

Don't think it's stupid. It's my opinion. I thought we had a good chance to win 7 games, not sure after seeing that first half.
It may only be a half, but I think our QB play is so poor we just won't get it done.

 

[Aesius]

Our D is still awful.

 

[VOLywood]

Why not just title this thread "negavols unite"? SMH

 

[omghulkhands]

His accuracy needs work but the yardage is measured from los not where he actually threw it.

ok 42

 

[17Vols]

Jeesh, our D either looks really good or really bad.

 

[SAPPER 5]

Again, crossing in front of AJ...come on, man!

 

[chieftn15]

AJ is the worst covering lb in the history of the vols why did he back that far back

 

[TennesseeOrange]

3rd and Jancek.

 

[barney]

We aren't talented enough to run man to man and we aren't smart enough to execute the zone. This sucks.

 

[hardyemt_p]

D can't get off the field

 

[Catbone]

Ugh

 

[give_him 6]

Bobby is grinding this game along. Have to get a stop soon.

 

[BigOrangeD]

WKU seems to like targeting AJ......

Yep. Ainge has called it. AJ cannot cover.

 

[DaddyChad]

what is their 3rd down conversion rate? 99.999%??????

I'll still take it over last year. We were lucky to see a 3rd down with a Sunseri defense.

And again the time on the field you have to look at on that. Offense hasn't done it's part.
