Wanna talk about Anthony Barr and the impact he usually has, and how the #Vikings are missing him right now. Remember that time Adam Gase didn't gameplan for him and the Vikings got 10 sacks

Sound on 🔊
Usually, teams sent their OL to block Barr, but that led to a bunch of mismatches everywhere. And Zimmer is really good at exploiting your protections when he know he can force your hand

Now, without Barr, the Vikings have to blitz like a normal team - costing you in coverage way more than it usually costs to screw up protections. And I haven't even shown a sim pressure in all this

Teams are getting what they pay for, basically. He can’t beat OL, but you have to put an OL on him, and if you put an OL on him Zimmer has already won https://twitter.com/kyler_vikings/status/1321265930798878724
Decided to add a sim pressure to this where it's a 4 man rush, and Barr is just spying but the RG has to be dedicated to him and it ends up with Danielle hunter on a tight end. Plus, the rush angles work out to keep Rodgers from escaping here
