Batty is mad about OSU. He's going to come out and hit the UCF QB so hard that

What was his assignment?

As you rush the QB you have to contain to the inside. QB can't get outside.

Bobby Lee Swagger

You assume Batty is always playing as the force man simply because he’s a DE.

Junior Deputy

If you’re in a 4-3 playing out of a 9, sure

Unless your job is to crash and pinch and someone else is contain.

To set the edge and not crash down on the RB every single time. Makes the zone read pretty easy when he crashes.

Batty was our worst PFF graded D-Lineman in the OSU game at 48.6. We were not

Listen to Hans. He said it wasn't Batty's assignment

Linebacker was part of the equation. It's not so simple. They have to be

The DL is the first pt of attack on the ground. Biting on "wrong" options is part of the job description.

The whole team needs to play their assignments.

Batty needs to be focused and do his job, he can be mad all he wants, he didn't do his job on Friday night.

Coug

But he sure did hit the RB hard when he bit on the pulled hand off

Belboz

He hit him so hard that I honestly thought it was going to draw a penalty

Coug

Oct 24, 12:56pm

I'm pretty sure he did his job last Friday. Unfortunately the D as a whole

cougarbob137

Oct 24, 12:57pm

The entire DL didn't do their jobs at all which triggered everyone else haven't to abandon their jobs....

I'm open to hearing who had edge contain if it wasn't Batty.

Corn Pop

Oct 24, 1:03pm

I didn't see a corner blitz so that leaves a safety or an LB. I'd be a little

I wasn't calling the D, but it seemed like the scheme was to have DEs get in the

Oct 24, 1:07pm

You really think the DE has edge contain on every down? LOL. This board

LOL, didn't say that. But you do you as usual.

You didn't say it, you just inferred it. Throwing together a couple buzzwords from a messageboard doesn't mean a

LOL, shimmy with the double down. This is hilarious. Keep going.

I respect you trying to talk your way out of the above post. I’m sure doing it without any substance is difficult. But

Nah, just some advise: you probably shouldn't assume cause, well, here you are.

To answer your question, depending on the play the DE, nickel, LB or safety can

Junior Deputy

Yep, already knew all of that, but we're talking about a few specific plays last

If you already knew all that then you’re doing a great job of acting dumb.

Buster Scruggs

Also could have been a play call that was susceptible to the QB pulling it. Especially when Bowman was in they could

shimmy

Oct 24, 2:32pm

You can also change based on play. That is, the DE has edge/force if it's run

chilawcoug

Oct 24, 3:35pm

This is the correct answer.

iknownothing

Oct 24, 4:50pm

No, but when there isn't a linebacker moving over there to cover his space it isn't a huge leap in logic.

TheLoneCougar

Oct 24, 1:50pm

Unless the LB is the one missing the assignment.

Junior Deputy

Oct 24, 1:51pm

Sure, but that likely was not the case 100% of the time. And Batty's PFF grade for that game was indicative.

TheLoneCougar

Oct 24, 1:55pm

Yeah I’m not saying Batty was perfect, just saying that the likelihood of Batty

Hopefully he doesn’t do it after the QB hands it off on a read option

Everybody saying he missed his assignment… are you on the coaching staff?

Coach Hill might know what the assignment was and he said it

Huh. Except this is the second or third game where he’s done the same thing and we’ve barely won in the end.
