Gurden said "get the ball to your quick Wr"


WOW!!

This has been a huge problem with our offense.  Last year, our receivers weren't great but they were capable of getting separation.  Smith, LaFell, and Ginn could get away from DBs and give Newton room to throw the ball.

 

This year, they are unable to do so.  Benjamin is a big target but he is an inconsistent route-runner, which is critical when talking creating separation.  It is why you see a guy like Jason Witten manage to get wide open so often, that and he knows the hole in zone defenses so well.  Cotchery and Avant are ridiculously slow.  Because of this, Newton has to make the near-perfect pass because the DBs are going to contest everything.  He has such a small window to work with due to the fact.  Just look at when Cotchery was being covered by Barwin.  Barwin, a linebacker, blanketed Cotchery. 

 

No speed or quickness.  Nearly every pass is contested as a result.  It's brutal.

    • Not sure who said it first, but Tepper is the correct answer. Still, I'm gonna go with Kasay keeping it inbounds. If, you subscribe to the butterfly effect version of time travel consequences.... When we win SBXXXVIII everybody's lives change: Moose never breaks his leg, We win it all again in 05. Tommy Jone is unknown and Peppers stays home, Champs once more 2008. No artificial pig heart turning JR into a creepy weirdo, no lockout, no Clausen. Fox and Jake ride off into the sunset on their own terms. No 2-14, no #1 pick. But, no laptop, no Blinn, 3 years behind The Golden Calf of Bristol, we still get Cam. JR let's him grow his locs like he always wanted, Smitty sees Cam in a new light. Dreads swinging, (and Smitty with his 3 Lombardis behind him) Cam is old enough to get those calls. No Manning narrative, Cotchery TD, PI against Talib on Philly Brown, 10,000 RTP calls and Kony Ealy SB50 MVP. No Jeans Fridays, no Tepper. KB doesn't slip on his own meatsweat mid-route in SD, Cam becomes the 1st QB to win 10 straight SBs. Retiring after being elected 47th president of the US of A, Cam ushers in the Permanent Proletarian Revolution across the globe, Xi Jinping bows in awe. "ẄøŘƙƐṛ§ őF ŧĤə ŵØRłð, ŮŊÏŦƐ!!!"
    • Yeah your right the owner was copping hand shandies while all this was going down 
    • I mean not surprised the Patriots took him in and aren't trying to push him out. They've been the most morally bankrupt team in the NFL for a long while. Wouldn't be surprised if Vrabel has his own dirt on Kraft/Brady and other assholes from that organization over the last couple decades.
