   quick ‘zona cardinals 2024 defensive stat highlites: “Points against per game: 22.3, 15th in the NFL Total yards against per game: 342.53, 21st in the NFL Passing yards against per game: 216.12, 14th in the NFL Rushing yards against per game: 126.41, 20th in the NFL Sacks: 13th in the NFL Interceptions: 24th in the NFL” even though Siefkes was only LB coach, maybe this is a limited indicator and sets some 2025 stats expectations

   At least some of it, for sure, because there are already college teams doing this stuff. Heck, Bud had some wilder stuff with rotating coverages, just as an example...I recaped a Purdue game years back where he had a bunch of moving parts on a big play. My hunch is that if there's a change that's visible to fans like us, it'll be the secondary looking a lot more fluid. That's something that could've alleviated late game woes this past season.

   Love these articles even though I only retain 15% of it.

   Can guys so young and limited to 20 hours per week grasp these changes?

      I meant to reply directly to your comment, but accidentally posted it separately above.

   Well that clears things up! Just kidding Brandon! Your excellent analysis helps us understand how many moving parts our coaches and players are dealing with between now and late August. Let’s hang in and give them our support.

      Agree, 78! Head is spinning from all of Brandon's insights, but appreciated nontheless. GO HOKIES!
