Dawson knox was a player

[Comebackkid]

ok i had to go back to buffalo plus...and revive my memory, which is pretty much road kill at this point.   i guess after the indy game 

players were coming up to him and saying wow...awesome catch (30 yard catch against indy)   and that was when he said..hey i been doing this for 

awhile guys.

Ad libbing a bit here but i guess when Dawson was interviewed post game they asked him how it felt to make a Td.

His answer was just..hey...ive been here before and done that.

at the end i was really beginning to think Daboll had completely lost his mind but...man he did an excellent job 

scheming players for a while. 

 Brady should lock himself in the closet for about 12 hrs and just keep watching this video.

 

I had totally forgot how great of an outlet player Dawson was.   and only one time in this entire video did i see an outlet player or screen

lined up directly lateral from Josh.   Some of these plays Dawson was an out right bully.

That trucking in the Bengals game was legend

Nice player whose reputation got dinged by a bad contract.

i doubt it....i mean i'd love to see it...    but wrinkles dont seem to be Brady's specialty.  not sure if he just doesnt believe in it or if the offense

just hasnt made it that far yet.

What are you talking about?  There plenty of examples of Brady wrinkles. Why do you think we’re so good in the 3rd quarter?  Brady runs the same plays from slightly different alignments cause he knows what the defense will be. This creates the rubs and leverage that spring so many plays. Be angry at his scripted plays but not at his ability to throw a wrinkle sheesh.

what im saying is...most all of the plays are just straight forward..heres a standard play, go make it.   there may be 5 variations of that standard play...but, 

they are for the most part standard plays.   

you seen the one trick play that was an abomination and about got josh killed.   

I'm not hating on brady..but... its still 30 shades of vanilla.

So you want more trick plays?  I hated that one call and am good with 30 shades (wrinkles) of vanilla. It’s doing pretty good. And it’s not just variations. It’s coaching points to beat the way the defense is playing.  Those are wrinkles to me. Trick plays are something else. I think he could do a bit better scripting plays early and taking advantage of known defensive tendencies. But dude is able to make his gameplan work later in the game by making super minor adjustments.

i'd like some plays...where.....u have a few plays in  your pocket that fool the defense...maybe you dont need them in certain games but take the end of the game.

pass play was called..nothing special to it...chiefs knew exactly what was coming...josh thinks quick and makes the play.   but...it wasnt because of some great play call.

i dont want to be miami or baltimore where u live off crazy motion all game long..but you cant deny that there arnent situations where its extremely benificial.

Wasn't he the one who stopped on the interception yesterday?

 

Yes and that's my biggest problem with Knox - he has very poor understanding of spacing, leverage, reading coverages, and making himself available for his QB. On that play he runs into the CB and just stops... What could he possibly have been thinking there? He effectively capped his own route and took himself out of the play, and the CB finished the route for him and made the catch that Knox was supposed to make. His physical skills pop when he's asked to perform a basic assignment and not think, but introduce any level of complexity and he just can't be trusted at all.
