Jaguars Vs. Browns: DE's have a tough task pressuring Colt McCoy

by Adam Stites on Nov 18, 2011 5:25 PM EST in Jacksonville Jaguars Game Preview

As the late Al Davis said, "The quarterback must go down, and he must go down hard." Such is true when it comes to most quarterbacks and Browns QB Colt McCoy is no exception. According to the numbers from ProFootballFocus, McCoy's "Accuracy Percentage is 72.9 when there is no pressure and 53.6 when there is."

Getting pressure on McCoy can help the Jaguars to be the eighth consecutive team to hold the Browns to 17 points or fewer. Something that is virtually a necessity with the Jaguars struggling to break the 17 mark themselves. Pressuring McCoy is easier said than done, though, as Joe Thomas and former-Jaguar Tony Pashos have been a solid pair of pass blockers so far in 2011.

In fact, the pair is among the top of the pass blocking rankings at offensive tackle on ProFootballFocus. With Kampman almost certainly out on Sunday, the Jaguars will rely on starters Matt Roth and Jeremy Mincey to provide the pressure with John Chick coming in rotationally.

I think

I’d take him over the Whimpering Guy right now… I think Pashos might have fared better against Mathis last week. Mathis made him whimper…

Maybe Selvie will see some action as well

On Jaguars This Week, Lageman said that Mincey is trhe perfect kind of pass rusher vs Thomas, and Roth and Chick also matches up well vs. Pashos. I hope he’ll be right.

Yeah I had called in on JTW asking what there thoughts on JMincey

And was happy to hear about his work ethic but also they thought Mincey was not only the Best Pass-Rusher but best All-around DE on the roster

Who did you think it was before they told you?

Who else could be close to Mincey?

I knew it was Mincey.

Did you even listen to JTW?

My question was how they viewed him so far this season, what his potential/ceiling is, and if he was someone the Jags Really needed to lock up. Not to double check if hes the best DE on the roster.

they had some interesting thoughts on who should play where

suggesting Mincey match up against Thomas and Chick on Pashos. They thought Mincey would be able to use his power against Thomas and Pashos would have trouble with Chick’s speed.

Probably not the first time a chick used there speed to get away from Pashos

Lol sorry, bad joke

when I heard Knighton was out, my thought was "good"

I hate missing that guy, but we know he’s not 100 percent. I think Mosley, Collins and Douzable can fill in dependably this week. I’d rather Knighton rest and get better. I’m looking forward to his play down the stretch.
