Commanders
Commanders WR Terry McLaurin pointed out OC Eric Bieniemy‘s scheme is much different than what they ran under former OC Scott Turner.
โThe scheme is different than what we are accustomed to from last year,โ McLaurin said, via Ben Standig of The Athletic. โWeโre running different routes than we were last year. Itโs more predicated off of spacing.โ
Regarding defenses adjusting to explosive offensive systems with two-deep safeties, CB Kendall Fuller said adjusting to offenses is a part of the game.
โOffenses evolve. Offenses change while trying to make big plays,โ Fuller said. โDefenses have evolved with it.โ
Commanders WR Jahan Dotson said defenses are game-planning against their vertical passing attack.
โA lot of teams are playing top-down, making sure that we donโt beat them over the top,โ Dotson said. โWe have a lot of explosive guys in this room. I would do the same if I were a defensive coordinator.โ
