Barkate needs more targets

I'm not typically a big fan of screens, but that one was ran to perfection. I was at a BJ's restaurant in Aurora, CO with a friend watching the game and when he scored on that play I got super hype.

Genuinely asking… why aren’t you a fan?

When executed correctly you get that play but also when it’s a tool in your toolbox and you’re a team that likes to run… inside like us, it keeps the defense honest.

You want to crowd the box against us… or your DBs keep gambling because they expect the run we’ll make you think twice about that.

You never pass up an open WR. If it’s mesh and you’re reading it post - mesh - swing you don’t skip the post bc the mesh may be “more open” that’s why Barkate caught that TD post on mesh.

On Y Cross it’s pre snap peek the vert and then Cross to Curl to swing. Toney is unstoppable on Y Cross so rarely will the Q work to #2

You said it better than me. As open as Toney has been, why wouldn't Mensah continue to go to him?

And he’s typically the first post snap read because he’s the crosser. On shallow it’s the cross to hunt-dig to swing. The post or vert is often pre snap / peek
 
Is it just me, or does he seem even faster than he was last year at Duke? He showed he had a gear I didn’t even know he had. Clemson’s DB’s couldn’t even keep up, much less catch him.
 
When he scored I yelled this ain’t 2016 no more this is our time & the Clemson fans got so quiet 😭

The false pull is what makes that such a killer screen when executed correctly.

It helped win a couple games last year late when Dawson needed a big play.

It’s almost a tell, though. If he’s into the boundary on a big play or moment, I look for that play first if I’m playing Safety against Dawson.

Also, the RB motion to the flat he went to the well a few times in ultra critical situations to Marty Brown.

Looks like his new one is going to be Lofton in motion and in some bunch sets.
