Someone who is making a lot of plays…

[canecrazy23]

If he can be a Leonard hankerson type of receiver for us that would be great

There's a good Chance this happens.

1. Better run game diversity, he was way to predictable in utilizing the same half dozen or so calls

The same ~6 runs are ran at every level of football.
Power (G wrap), counter (SZ), duo/iso/dive, buck sweep (pin-pull), IZ-OZ(WZ, Stretch)

2. Draw and screen game - under utilized with little diversity

He's got 2-3 screens in his playbook. Just need something to the RB over the middle

3. More misdirection (both run and pass) to exploit Beck’s athleticism

Beck is athletic?

4. Creativity to get young playmakers easy touches

Dawson could use more 'packaged' plays, think Tecmo Super Bowl, for these young guys. 3 things that look alike and where they don't do much different.

You’re not going to see a lot of variety in the run game. You may see a little more outside zone and an occasional pin/pull toss because we’re not alternating two 230 lb running backs anymore but that’s about it.

There were sacrifices Mario was willing to make when he brought in an Air Raid coordinator. What he wasn’t going to budge on is his run game philosophy. The first priority is to not lose yardage on run plays. Risk/reward plays like sweeps and counters aren’t going to be in our playbook.

Our WR/TE screen game was elite last year but running back screen plays were mostly nonexistent. That’s mostly because teams just dropped 8 against us and dared Cam to throw the ball downfield. Screens are only effective if the opponent is bringing pressure. If the opponent is only rushing three, a running back screen pass won’t gain much.

Bro, I’m not even talking philosophy in regards to the run game, I’m talking about not running the exact same inside zone play 8 times in 3 drives

Please elaborate and submit evidence as to how Dawson’s screen game was elite in 2024

 

[BeastMode]

Knowing that there’s gonna be considerably less improv from Beck, that’s gonna put more onus on Dawson to call the right play, unless they give Beck free will to audible, like Cam had.

I need to see improvement from Dawson in:
1. Better run game diversity, he was way to predictable in utilizing the same half dozen or so calls
2. Draw and screen game - under utilized with little diversity
3. More misdirection (both run and pass) to exploit Beck’s athleticism
4. Creativity to get young playmakers easy touches - it stung watching BSmith crush at SMU…. We’ve got a lot of talented but unproven skill guys. I wanna see Dawson engineer easy touches for Carr, Lofton, Schott, Toney, Pringle
(Screens, jet sweeps, swing passes, wild cat)

I’m not saying Dawson is bad, but most people that have played competitive football would agree that when watching Dawson while at Miami, he’s not winning a chess match with his play calls….. he’s got a ton of room to improve

Beck already said in interviews he can change plays. Y’all act like he is a freshman. Dude has played a lot of football.

I never said Beck wasn’t deserving of having authority to audible. He hasn’t played a snap yet, no one knows how the Dawson-Beck combo is gonna operate ingame

Cam was audibling a ton. All indications are Beck is equally as knowledgeable as Cam, so I’d expect Beck to have the green light, I’d be concerned if he didn’t

You literally said...'knowing theres going to be considerably less improv from Beck, thats gonna put more onus on Dawson'

You dont know that to be the case at all, you just spat **** out of your mouth...then the other guy told you Beck has already told the media he can audible...

I guess I could tell you to re watch the games and count the number of wide receiver screens because I’m not going to put together a highlight package.

 

[Zbrod95]

I said it back when Chance committed. Mario has a "type". Fletcher, Lofton, Robinson, Bain. They don't really fit the normal definition of the ideal traits. But they have that combination of "field awareness", center of gravity, balance and power that more than compensates. And they are overachievers. I think Chance is going to be a good one if he can stay healthy.

Those are called football players

 

[BS85]

Y’all need to put some respect on Dawson’s name. He made Cam Ward. Not the other way around. Ward didn’t come here as the number 1 pick. And Mario brought him here. Can’t only credit the coaches for the bad **** that happens.

This has to be satire

 

[Cane6]

The fact that you can’t even reference a single game for an average fan to review as evidence of your statement that “Dawson’s screen game was elite in 2024” seals the deal

Go make up some stuff elsewhere

 

[atlcane72]

Ward went from the 3rd round to the number 1 pick under Dawson. Give the man his props. I’ve seen enough from the offensive staff. Get the D right and get this **** rolling.

 

[Combo]

This has to be satire

It's exaggeration, but it's absolutely true that Ward benefitted from coming to Miami as much as Miami benefitted from him.

You don’t know how to read dumb ****

Improv = broken play/backyard football,

Ward extended so many plays, that’s what I was referring to, wasn’t referring to anything regarding audibling

Now you're mad at me, for your comments?
Lmao
Calm down

 

[Empirical Cane]

Gaby mentioned him this morning in his "What I'm hearing after a week of camp" post as someone who has been getting praise for his camp performance. Said he needs to be more consistent but is making plays when given an opportunity.

He gon gone meng.

Imagine where his draft slot would have been if he chose FSU?



Probably would have cost him a ton of money.

What other school was in the running for him?

Go watch literally any game from last year. If I said Can Ward made some elite throws last year would I need to provide specific examples for you? Find a YouTube highlight of ANY game last season and you’ll see at least two or three wide receiver/tight end screen plays that went for good yardage.

You made the blind statement that Dawson’s offense didn’t use screens. I said “go watch the games and you’ll see a bunch of them”. You want me to go through an entire season of game footage and find exact moments for you? Proving you wrong is not worth that amount of time. Watch the games. Or don’t and just hold onto your opinion. I don’t give a ****.

Scrambling back of the endzone pass.

Impressive.
