Hell if I can hold off the dread of the big play or momentum killing scores until the 4th quarter

That is a problem for a Chavis led defense as well.

You guys will learn quickly about the Mustang Package. Playing that many plays in a nickel package leaves a defense susceptible to the power run game because it becomes a size vs size advantage for an offense in the box. Against the pass, it's great if the defense has great aggressive corners who are physical in press man. If not, Chavis will quickly switch to off man to make it up for but that only leads to the corners getting worked on the outside on longer, downfield passing routes.

You want to see how a Chavis defense performs against power run/play action offenses? Watch these highlights from 2000 against LSU. It's a Chavis defense in a nutshell. Big plays given up through out the game & choke job at the end in OT.
