So DA got sacked once

Recommended Posts

Do you guys think this was bc of our oline playing well or the Bucs dline just playing bad? Also this got me thinking about how cam has been sacked more than anyone else since entering the league. Our oline hasn't been too bad though. Maybe it's cam'a scrambling out of the pocket that results in those sacks? Idk it's 3:30 and I can't sleep

It's hard to say off of one game. I think our o-line struggles picking up blitzes at times (they're so young and haven't quite gelled together yet), and I don't think TB sent too many blitzes against us. They seemed intent on trying to win with a 4-man rush but they don't have the ideal personnel to win that battle. Our o-line did great with protection today and opened up some holes in the run game too, but I wanna see how they do against a heavy blitzing team.

DA gets rid of the ball quicker because he doesn't have the athleticism to try and extend plays or get yards himself on every down. That's the trade-off with a dual threat. Yes, Cam could stand to get rid of the ball quicker, but the rolling out and scrambling always keeps the defense honest. It's also why Russell Wilson is one of the most sacked QBs in the league, and I'm sure Kaepernick is not far away in that regard either.

This is exactly what I was going to say. That quick release is a thing of beauty but it will not always get you the yards you need in crunch time. Don't start calling for derek anderson to remain the starter once cam gets healthy just yet.

Anyone recall the sack?  I don't.  I recall a bobbled snap and what looked like a broken hand-off play.

 

It looked like some sort of screen. The RG who was either Vasquez or Turner, whiffed on Gerald McCoy. They probably wanted him to break McCoy's momentum then release up field but instead McCoy got a free run at DA.

 

I think the line played well but I also think DA would throw the ball under pressure quicker. When Cam felt pressure his first instinct was to tuck and run. DA would get rid of the ball, and not always in the safest of manners. We almost lost the game when DA threw up that inaccurate pass on 3rd down.

 

Ultimately I would like to see Cam pass first but have that run threat in his back pocket when he needs it. Defenses are getting better and better at containing him.

The Bucs have it on SLO-MO! Probably because it was their only defensive highlight...

Looks like Velasco was supposed to chip McCoy and basically just let him go. Also looked like some miscommunication on that play.

    • There's really two parts to this question.   1) What does Bryce have to do to prove that he was worthy of the 1st overall pick (and the Panthers trade up to acquire said pick) and be seen as the franchise QB/face of the organization for the foreseeable future?  2) What does Bryce have to do to be a serviceable starter past this season and allow the team to be in a position of not being desperate in their next try at acquiring a franchise QB? I don't think Bryce is capable of ever living up to the expectation of the 1st overall pick and being a franchise QB.  His physical limitations will not allow him to ever be that QB.   He could, however, show enough to be a placeholder.  Not what you want out of this deal but it's better than him being released at the end of the season.  Minimum of 6-8 wins with him showing he can lead the offense (scoring around 17-24 points per game on offense) and make plays when it matters especially as the end of the season nears.  It will also show that Morgan is capable of assembling a competitive roster and Caneles is capable of installing a modern NFL offense.   Then you wait and draft/sign/trade for a franchise QB when the situation is to your best advantage.  This is how the Chiefs got Mahomes, the Eagles got Hurts, the Ravens got Jackson and the Packers got both Rodgers and Love.  Or we luck into it like the Patriots did with Brady and the 49er's did with Purdy.  
    • The only reason---which is a significant reason---that Penny is not miles (no pun intended) ahead of Sanders is due to health. Availability is the best ability in this case. When Penny is able to play, he has been the better back. His career averages in both running and receiving are markedly better, and Miles has arguably been playing behind a better line.
    • That being said, when was the last time you saw Freddie spending more time sprawled on the ice versus keeping his feet? Playoff Freddie is not the same goalie who played exceptionally well since coming back from his medical issue. We're seeing someone other than regular season Freddie and I'm not impressed, especially the last 3-4 games.
