The only way to beat a pressuring defense is the run game, quick 3 step drop & release, checkdowns out of gun or pistol. have a qb that can move the pocket or able to run & extend plays with his legs. It's unsustainable over an 18 game schedule. Which is why teams with a bad OL... lose on a consistent basis. 

I love to counter pressure with asymmetrical sets and heavy motion. Really put the secondary in a bind. 
Use ncaa style fast rpo, no step or one step throw screens. Throw to the area the defense vacates to pressure, or take advantage of miss matches like slot on lber or rb on db in hitches and quick hitters. Mesh is great vs pressure too. 

They to running vs pressure is to vary up the run touches to keep the D off kilter. Wide and outside zone are great to punish over pursuit, and draws. People tend of thin of draw only as an inside run from the gun, but you can delay toss to punish the edge, you can run search with delay or off a pump fake etc.

Holm is arguably our best DB. He was a ******* all star this year. It's wildly absurd to suggest getting rid of him.

People are insane for wanting Brady and Holm to be gone....  seriously why would you dump young Canadian all stars?   It's almost like fans are wanting this team to be dead last?    Cut the old guys with big salaries if you want to trim the fat.

Holm isn't Canadian... But still.

he isn’t the best db on the team either, Nichols is better and worlds better tackling and filling a run fit. Griffin is better too. worlds more physical, versatile, and more steady in coverage.

That said, I could see kramdi being lured back to mtl, and I think nichols could chase a ring on a contender. I think holm is likely to get another raise. He basically played close to the level we paid him at, but we paid him way early. 

Holms consistency and ability to stay healthy despite a pretty slight build/frame is very impressive. Especially for a twitchy closing speed guy. 

I expect us to go to camp with some thing like allen woodbey holm griffin houston with bond and parker fighting for spots. At sam I think ayers, makonzo and smith fight for it. Maybe woodbey or griffin slide to that spot as well.
