Manusky wants Redskins linemen to ‘beat the crap out of people’

LEESBURG - If there is one thing nearly every new defensive coordinator says, it’s that they plan to be more aggressive. They’re going to get in your face, ratchet up the pressure, knock some people on their behinds – you name it.

Greg Manusky is a new defensive coordinator.

“Just a lot of pressure with him,” linebacker Ryan Kerrigan said. “You look at the install sheets for when we’re installing our defense, you see a lot of lines going forward.”

Install sheets are one thing. A defense can plan on blitzing an opponent back into the stone age, then have defensive backs start blowing coverages, the front of the defense overcompensates and everything turns to milk toast.
