IMO we saw more blitzing and more press coverage the first 8 games or so in year 1. We also saw a sell out to stop the run by the Ss and left our CBs on an island. Since then we have seen the CBs back off quite a bit and less emphasis on stopping the run. Obviously we still see press coverage and blitzes but IMO it isn't as often. There were countless times this year where we rushed three guys on 3rd down and sit back in a zone only to give up a 12 yard gain. We didn't see that year 1 and it seemed to be a staple this year. Shafer started off with an attacking D and the last two years we have only seen that against certain opponents. The rest of the time we have seen a lot of bend but don't break.
