This has been happening for quite some time now. Can someone explain to me the reasoning for it? The point? Why not put an actual receiver in on that play and take D.Will out? And D.Will dont go to the slot, he goes all the way out which doesn't even bring a linebacker

 

I'm trying hard to remember that every time that happens, the play is a quick throw from Cam

It causes the defense to alter CBs. Williams sole purpose is simply to force the opponent to have to switch CBs on our WR

 

What do you mean by alter CBs on our WR. When D.Will goes out, the defense puts a corner on him as if he's a WR. The play usually results in Cam not even looking on that side of the field he's on

It's about personnel. The defense has to send in a package that can play the run, even when we end up going five wide.

This has happened for yrs and the pass NEVER goes his way.

Sent from my SPH-L710 using CarolinaHuddle mobile app

 

Exactly.  Even if it technically puts a CB on an RB out there, the CB is still going to anticipate.  I think it's out-dated considering the faster defenses nowadays.

But that's the thing, we put 3 WR and Olsen. So their package is to play the pass. When D.Will goes out, it makes it 4 WR, 5 wide. The corner thats out there always end up picking our RB up. It never confuses the D and it doesn't do anything for us for as far as getting a mismatch is concerned. Take out D.Will and put a real receiver in and take chances with a WR vs CB cause a RB vs corner wont do anything

I'd have to go back and look at it, but I don't think the patriots had 5 corners out there, which is the point. Hoping to get a linebacker on Williams or Olsen. But even if that happens, it's not an automatic completion or anything.

      Rookie season being key to uour argument. I didn't at all mislead about the talent Cam had to work with. Kalil was a great center. Olsen was a great TE. Our WRs were probably the worst in the league. Cam still won MVP, we went 15-1, and we went to the SB. Your attempt to bring up Cam to defend Bryce is desperate and clownish. Bryce has more talent to work with and has done WAY less.

      Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
