This Week, Texans Need To Blitz, Blitz, Blitz
Factor this:
Ravens have a rookie QB in second NFL game.
Ravens RB will be either gimpy (McGahee) or inexperienced (Rice).
Ravens no longer have Jonathan Ogden.
Texans have trouble generating a pass rush.
Texans secondary has trouble in coverage.
The answer:
Blitz, blitz, blitz!
Stack against the run, blitz the pass, force Flacco to beat us with his arm. Even if he burns us once or twice, we should be able to make some stops and force some turnovers. The Ravens should not run up a lot of points so big plays will determine the game. I think our chances improve if we sell out to the run and blitz with abandon.
