Will Mallory 🔥

another great game by Mallory!

I have my gripes with lashlee but I want to talk about him brilliantly scheming Mallory open last night late 2nd half.... we finally were wearing them down and our OLine was getting push. Probably ran 5-7 straight times. In my head I was going nuts Due to clock but it was effective so I couldn’t complain too much. Dive for 3, dive for 6, counter for 8, etc. Then BOOM RPO, Mallory slips into the middle of the field because the linebackers all bit hard on the run. Wide open for a big gain! Made me smile to see us Scheme a big play like that in CRUNCH TIME!

I’m happy for him and see he is developing as a all around TE, especially with his improved blocking.

I’d like to see him trust his speed more when he side by side with defenders and they are giving chase. Oftentimes he pulls up and tries to make a lateral move to get around them and it always provides them an angle to tackle where if he just kept running full speed at 6’5 240 with his long strides and a well timed stiff arm, the tackle would be much more difficult for the pursuing defender.

I was thinking the same thing about trusting his speed, he has legit speed and can leave db’s. But maybe his confidence is a little damaged since he’s banged up. He might have doubts he can pull away so he’s trying to bully them instead. Just a guess on my part , but he’s definitely hurt.
