What would be your scheme to gameplan for Lamar Jackson?

[JLova]

I think it's O. Score early, don't gamble, don't give them short fields. Keep their offense off the field. On D, give them Ingram, play a lot of man. Don't get beat deep.

And pray.

On the real your team speed on defense has to be elite

no zone cause they’ll just eat up yards by finding the soft spot

TBH your best defense is a good offense. They can’t score if you keep them off the field.

Has breh got a well-known nickname? If it's not "Action" Jackson then

get a time machine & go get prime.vick

beat a explosive offense by building a more explosive offense

Except lamar shattered prime vicks numbers with 3 games leftover and is a much better passer

It's actually the same as playing Madden.. You have to have your DEs play the outside to force middle, have a LB spy, play man to man.. Do not blitz, do not play zone...

This. You play zone, he's going to the perimeter, and that's where he kills you. Spy and force him up the middle, they will think twice about letting him run after a few hits.

(oh, and if anyone says how they shutdown a cat playing Madden will get a Neg Train. That ain't Real Life. Respectfully,
)

U aint got the numbers or power to neg train

 

[NoMoreWhiteWoman2020]

But he's also a good passer so then you have to pray your DBs aren't getting beat. Not to mention your lack of a run defense here

If you take away a his TE’s you handcuff his game. Hollywood is only good for deep bombs and Snead and Fuller aren’t winning a game for you. Jackson can throw but he needs a more consistent wr corps

without thinking, i would probably stack the box with a safety in the middle who spies, and play man to man on the outside. basically a 4-4 defense with a strong safety also playing MLB.

i would align the DE's relatively wide as well hoping that contains any outside scrambles

I would have the other 3 line backers drop back into shallow coverage while having a FS monitor the middle of the field for deep seam, corners and post routes from the TE's/whoever is in the slot.


if hollywood brown gets off on a deep ball i gotta hope the safety can make it there to help. if not...so be it. shyt happens lol

There isn’t a LB in the league that can spy Lamar. He will run right past them...every single time. Sub in a DB to spy and Ingram destroys that shyt. Never mind that fact that Lamar is probably faster than them as well.

that’s literally the simplest defense possible to deal with dual threat QBs. If it was that easy we wouldn’t even be having this conversation right now.

 

[Scott Larock]

The Steelers defense did the best of any against him this year

Minkah plays mostly run support, it will leave the deep ball open but what you think?

Ya'll watch that video and see how aggresive Minkah is on D.

 

[Primetime21]

Keep their offense off the field

Except lamar shattered prime vicks numbers with 3 games leftover and is a much better passer

of course in this imaginary scenario the team has all the pieces to maximize vicks talents ha*

 

[UserNameless]

I know you guys don't believe in video game strategy but it's realistic. You can't stop him you can only hope to contain him. Every mistake you make you're gonna pay because the boy can actually pass.

nah I actually fux with what you said tho .

 

[Stone]

Zone up and force him to dink and dunk down the field and pray that you can hold them to 3 while you score 7

manning up is suicide
