Will be so much fun this week.
I don't think I've ever less looked forward to do a film review on quarterbacks before.
There was a reason why we brought up the staff needing to do some self scouting last week.
When you chart play after play your team starts to develop some obvious tendency. I think it got exposed a little tonight.
Back to drawing board canes fans. Won't be pretty but we will sort through the mess. Win or lose we at inSight got a job to do and we promise to evolve
Let me help:
- we asked a young, jumpy QB to throw a handful of low percentage throws
- he blindly threw a seam route into a single high safety who’d already seen the same formation and route combo
- he overanticipated and tossed an awful 2nd INT
- we then pulled him for a QB who, despite being unable to throw an accurate ball, is placed in positions to throw 50/50 balls
- we blame the OL for most problems, but even when they hold their part of the bargain, there is rarely anyone running free
- we blame a Frosh OL for getting beaten on a 4th and short, yet the DL just slanted/guessed into the exact play we’ve run before
- we run vertical routes at defenses literally sprinting back expecting the routes
- we get man situations on the outside and run predictable dig routes at the sticks on 3rd down conversion situations
- please find us more than a handful of examples of WRs running free *across* the field
- we run timing-based routes when we know our OL doesn’t consistently allow for timing
- before the last drive, despite being led by an expert in crossing route concepts, we might have seen 2-3 pass plays inside the hashes
- we run the same ‘big shot’ plays in similar situations (example: half roll post route to a Thomas whenever we’ve needed a big play, QB draw inside the RZ from empty set)
- there’s more, but I’m nauseous
Kendall Briles type offense would do big things here. Power spread that stretches a defense.
i can interpret you’re a really nice dude and hold back personal opinion at times so you can keep the reviews objective. I hope you take the gloves off this week.
