LBs trying to guard WRs is a recipe for disaster this happened several times last night against Bama. Finally, late in the third quarter after being burned all night Brewer went in as an LB to stop the WR crossing routes.
We don't do a good job at all in getting matched up, for example, last week against MSU after the 3rd and 7 timeout the teams start to line up my son 14 years old and a QB himself says "why is our backup SS (Brewer) guarding MSU's best WR (Bumpbus) man to man in the slot if I was QB for MSU I am throwing to him all the way. Guess what first down MSU!
Based on what I have seen in person it is 70% coaching, 30% ability.
