an incomplete is better than these 3 yard passes the one time he doesn’t overthrow, he under throws and it gets knocked away lol

he’s overthrowing everything

I can see it being short … but he challenged the catch, not the spot?

Wait they can change the purpose of the challenge?

I love Dan Campbell. I think that challenge is stupid, but I just love his fire.

Where did you hear this? That changes things, if true. Original reports was that he could be back in 3-4 weeks after the injury (that would have been over a month ago).

Agreed. It helps us but also limits us. I wouldn't mind McD hiring a vet D coordinator and completely handing over duties to him. Schwartz may be fired if the Browns have another 6-10 record this year. I would hire him immediately.

He was trending down last year as well.

yes this is literal worst case scenario

@SoCal Deek do you remember what this area is? I don't see it in the rendering (unless its the back of the scoreboard and I dont realize it).

How does Daboll not use that timeout when he sees his defender running to the LOS?

Dart is throwing into double coverage like it’s nothing.

A properly executed back shoulder throw is practically impossible to defend.

Even if they can’t, they got elite WR production for a 3rd round pick. A lot of teams 3rd round pick sits on the bench for 4 years before being cut and becoming a realtor.

Pickens with another insane catch. Dallas stole him for a 3rd round pick.

Colts are a problem

well ya don’t do it twice in a row Minnesota 🤦🏻‍♂️

Love that all out blitz by the Vikings. A lost art.

If this game proves anything, it’s that blitzing Tua nonstop WORKS. You can blitz him every single play and it will work almost every time. How every coordinator has not figured this out yet is beyond me.

what is your worst case scenario for our playoff matchups?

Youre describing the normal playoff scenario where we lose. Home in the second round to a team we lost to previously. And then facing the Chiefs, where we always lose.

We have already lost to the 2nd round team and historically always lose to the 3rd round team. Not sure how that's "not too bad".

It just launched and will be available the rest of the season (if it’s like past years). Kinda hate the current prediction.

No one is stating that run checks don't exist. We are stating that your example is not correct. This is the play and formation (below) where you wanted Allen to check to the right: The QB is going to walk up to the LOS and divide the defensive box into halves. I have made them into orange and yellow boxes for convenience. He sees 4 defenders on the right and 4 on the left. This is an even box. The WR goes in motion for the sole purpose of drawing either the left CB or left LB to follow him, making it only 3 defenders on that side of the field: The left CB, as planned, does start to follow the motion WR but quickly recovers and goes back toward the ballcarrier when he see's its a run. Keon, being oblivious to this fact, does not block this CB. He also doesn't chip the DE like he is supposed to, barely getting a single hand on him: Keon, having done absolutely NOTHING to help, moves on to the second level to block literal AIR, and Edwards, who was slow off the ball, puts both of his hands into Dion's back instead of engaging the DE. McGovern is meanwhile being stiff armed to the face and overpowered. Everyone in red (below) completely misses their blocks, dooming the play. Not because of the direction, but because they suck at football. Summary: NO, this play should NOT have gone to the other side. It was called properly and Allen diagnosed the defense properly. It would have been a huge gain if the O-line and Keon simply made their blocks. No, NOT everyone is a viable target. Progressions and pressure, for one. But also, Joe Brady has talked in depth about how his offense has receivers whose only job is to clear out or draw attention away from where the play is meant to go, and just because they are open is not meant as an indication for Josh to go there... that they set up plays for later, etc.

As one on the other side, yes it is. No, you posted a few plays with poor analysis and attributed blame to the wrong person on most of them. For example: On the 2nd & 10 you wanted Josh to throw the swing pass. I dont know what game you're watching but the play-call was for Josh to keep the ball. That was literally the play. You see Edwards pull and McGovern block down. This was a run all the way. The swing route was a distraction. If Allen throws that, its immediately illegal man downfield. On another play you say Josh has plenty of options and should have thrown to one of them, completely ignoring that his first read has 1 on 1 on the outside with no safety help because there are 2 receivers on that side and the safety is playing middle. In another play you say that Josh should have audibled to run on the other side of the field, because you saw more Bills players over there and thinks thats how that work (it doesnt). I could keep going on, but what's the points? So yes, you posted a bunch of images and wrote words, but they were grounded in a lack of football knowledge and understanding of what is happening. In general you really struggle with understanding progressions and that not every person on the field is a viable target.
