Iowa's Secondary

OK, dude, when did Iowa, this year (or any year), cover an opponent's receivers well enough that the QB held onto the ball too long and was sacked?

Every time the QB held the ball longer than 3-5 seconds and ended up going down. I have a life so I am not going to find individual instances right now, but anyone who actually watches the Hawks knows it exists.
 
Iowa's pass defense resulted manytimes in the QBs throwing the ball away. Saw it in nearly every game 2nd half of the season.
 
Usually when the dline got sacks this year it was a coverage sack.
Iowa got burnt early in the year but the secondary cleaned things up and played very well.

It will be interesting to see who comes away with the open safety spot next year.
 
I can think of several times in the OSU game alone where Miller had all day to survey the field but couldnt make a throw because of good coverage.

Do you even watch the games Homer?

He's too busy checking out the extra tight, sleek pants that all of the players wear.
 
No one has been able to provide one example of a coverage sack by Iowa's secondary... Do you understand Iowa's secondary must cover to the point their QB doesn't think any receiver is open.. and has to eat the ball? If their QB throws the ball away, it's not ANY kind of sack. Creating a coverage sack usually means man-to-man pass defense, press pass defense.

Blitzes don't constitute a coverage sack. Iowa's Dline bull rushing the other's Oline doesn't constitute a coverage sack. All I'm saying is you're mistaken if you think Iowa's secondary has created any coverage sacks.. 'cause they haven't. They call it zone (in some cases 2 deep zone) for a reason.

Finally, I wouldn't be harping about Iowa's coverage sacks (or lack of) if some immature posters hadn't called names, accused me of not knowing the game. It's really not a big deal Iowa's secondary hasn't created any coverage sacks, but your ironic responses for me to learn the game. Jeeze!

This is also why it's so important for Iowa's D to put pressure on the opponent's QB.. because Iowa's secondary doesn't prevent pass completions.

You have to be the best poster that Jon has ever trolled up.

By the way if the only person who doesn't think you are clueless is you.....well maybe it should tell you something. Of course I think you hear many things that no one else does.
 
If I disagree with you, why does that make me a troll? I don't think you're a troll if you disagree with me.. it's only these posts:

And if you talk only to posters who think I'm clueless, you haven't talked to too many posters.

You are a troll if you look to derail every thread by commenting negatively no matter what. It has been obvious to everyone who reads your posts that you do not follow football. You want to try to but all you have is the info you found on espn or Madden.

Its ok. We get you.

Wow. Just wow.

If you don't think Iowa had any coverage sacks this season, or hasn't in recent past seasons, then there's no help (or hope) for you, brah. Learn the game before you go commenting like you think you know what you're talking about. Or pay closer attention, ya dolt.
