Film Breakdown of the Redskins 1st half defence compared to 2nd half defence.

The Redskins defence was almost night and day from the 1st half to the 2nd half.  In the 1st half, we had constant pressure on Kolb, the Cards run game wasn't going anywhere, and WR's weren't getting enough time to get open.  Yet, in the 2nd half, it was completely the opposite.  Kolb had all the time in the world, he always had a WR open, and that damn draw play seemed to get us every time.  Here's why.

We clearly went into the game with a blitz heavy and often game-plan.  To do this, you have to have CB's on the outside that can play man coverage, because the LB's will be blitzing and can't cover a zone in the middle of the field.
