Daily Slop: Marko Mitchell

Interview with 6'4 7th round pick, Marko Mitchell. Randle El think the kid has a good shot [syracuse.com]

"The nuances in terms of leverage and everything you can pick up," Randle El said of learning the receiver position. "But if you've got the ability to catch and run and just make plays when the ball's in the air, you've got your foot in the door. I think he's got his foot in the door. He can run fairly decent routes. He's shown he can make some plays. Now it's a matter of him doing it consistently, every time his name is called."

Miami's 4 'Wildcat' formations

Wildcat: HB Dive.

Wildcat: HB Dive – RB Sweep

Wildcat: Play-Action Seam Pass

Wildcat: Play-Action HB Pass

How to stop it:

The one advantage the defense has versus the Wildcat is that there is a running back at quarterback, so the defense must bring pressure. However, there isn’t much time to adjust when you see the Dolphins come out in this formation, so the simplest way to defend it is to have the middle linebacker audible to an automatic blitz. The linebackers will blitz inside, while the corners and safeties play man-to-man on the receivers and tight ends. The linebackers are better off blitzing and trying to fill the running lanes rather than trying to diagnose and react to the play. The run blocking angles are so good on this play because all of the offensive linemen have a down angle to block, so the first goal of the defense is to stop the dive up the middle and force the run to the outside where they have more time to react.

Dallas will probably have similar schemes. But it will be interesting to see if Felix Jones will hold up all season, especially if he’s going to be used in this way a lot. Dallas’ strength is their running game, so they would be wise to make it the focal point of their offense.

"Sure it’d be great to be playing with 10 good fingers, but 8 will do just fine." – Jon Jansen
