We Need To Add A Short Passing Attack to Our Offense


fieryprophet

Recommended Posts

The blueprint to attack our offense is out, and it revolves around our philosophy of attacking downfield. It's beautiful when it works but like everything in the NFL it has a weakness, such as a being prone to stalled drives and pass rushes.

This game is entirely different if we can switch to a short passing offense when necessary but our personnel is not currently suited to it as it revolves around physicality not precision.

This means Cam needs to refine his short accuracy, Philly Brown needs to be used more, and even Bersin. Kelvin and Funchess need to work on their routes so they can be trusted to get open without space.

If we add this element to our offense we can punish teams who otherwise can take away our big plays, but it needs to be a focus going forward.

we could act like there is still a football game to play when it's just the start of the 2nd quarter.

Yup panthers have folded like cheap lawn chairs in the 2nd half in 3 games now.. even vs SF they was making a comeback.

A quick short passing game relies on having WR's with reliable hands, which we do not have.

More than that, receivers who can run precise routes and Cam has to be more consistent with his footwork and ball location. This is why we don't call these kinds of plays, we haven't developed the necessary timing yet. But we have to, teams will continue to run this gameplan against us. Not all of them have the personnel to stop our big plays but those that do will be at a decided advantage.

this.

people seem to forget that the offense has been tailored (and personnel selected) to cater to newton's strengths.

newton struggles with short passes.

    • This guy pre-draft was saying he could take or leave football, and he seems to have been playing with that mentality ever since lol.  
    • Agreed, another safety would be nice. Bud Clark, TCU, is one I would like to see us take a flyer on later in the draft, if he stays healthy and we don't take someone earlier. I just really hope we draft a solid C this year. Tired of seeing us cycle through average to below average players in that area.
    • Bryce doesn't like throwing into the middle of the field unless the play broke down or it's set up to give him a passing lane.  So because of this issue, most of the passing offense has to be outside the numbers towards the boundary. So you see him throw a lot of dump offs, swing routes, short side out routes, comebacks or deep balls outside the numbers using the boundary as protection of an interception.    Pretty easy for a NFL defense to see this and scheme against it.  All you have to do is run a shell cover 2 deep dime, LB plays a hook underneath, take the flat away with a blitz/flat zone option for the two inside DB's, outside two DB's play hook zone underneath and carry anything deep.    Pretty much what NO ran to take away Rico while also limiting What Bryce can do as well.
