    I think you have to play multiple but more press looks even in zone .. I like press and not letting free release esp. Into the middle .. I would run blitz as much as we could.

    I think this is where we go right where a lot of other teams go wrong in trying to defend Lamar. He's much more dangerous the longer he holds the ball, which is the opposite of most QB's. When he tries to quickly hit a hot read he invariably becomes sloppy in his footwork and becomes inaccurate. Putting a spy on him is useless, because he's more athletic than anyone you can spy him with. Yes, he will burn you if you blitz and run past him, but I feel most of his big runs come when he's back there a while and the defenders are all taken downfield by receivers.
