Message: [QUOTE="Zelda Zonk, post: 1608940, member: 966"] The zone is a liability, but thinking we can just switch to a defense we no longer practice is completely unrealistic, unfortunately. • JB hasn't coached a decent m2m defense in years, even when we did practice it • We are still going to have guys playing out of position • It's wayyy late in the season for a complete defensive overhaul • We aren't tough enough - mentally, not assertive, and physically not strong, unless you consider DC's 'bull' act an indication of strength. • Man would put even more miles on TC and MG, and they're already being run ragged. • The psych damage of trying to switch and not being immediately competent would be painful... I hate the zone. But we aren't set up for anything else. Sadly. All eggs... one leaky basket. [/QUOTE]
