Daily Slop - 29 Nov 23: defense, young players, London Fletcher and an injured Dolphins starter

Breaking down the potential major changes on defense with Jack Del Rio gone and Ron Rivera taking over.

I suspect with Del Rio now gone, Rivera will revert back to some basic zone coverages which his defenses have historically been known for. Even in the Cowboys game, we saw how much more effective zone coverage was for this defense.

On this play, we see the Commanders drop into a basic Tampa-2 zone coverage. This consists of two deep safeties, with each one responsible for their respective deep halves of the field.
