A word on sacks


lightsout

Recommended Posts

Some people in the game thread have this idea that EVERY throw has to be within three seconds. No. It doesn't. Because not every play is a quick hitter. Some require time to open up. 

 

Sacks were not on Cam. The first, Kalil got destroyed off the edge. Another, Williams got destroyed. 

 

Blame Shula for putting this offense in terrible situations where it's obvious we're passing, allowing the d to pin their ears back and come after the pass rush. It's not about Cam holding the ball forever. If you think that, find the coaches film and please point out the obvious open receiver that Cam failed to see fast enough. Until then, don't talk football if you don't know football.

 

Funny thing is, some of you saying Cam was holding the ball too long were defending Matt Kalil last week when I said he was inconsistent and getting worked.

If this were true then all the sacks would have been within 2 seconds or less.  But at least two were closer to 4 seconds of Cam standing still in a pocket collapsing around him after 3+ seconds, including one of them that contributed to falling out of FG range

Find the open receiver. Sack is better than throwing into coverage

    • You would hope so. I’m confused why the sports world seems split on Bryce when he’s obviously not working out. 
    • So let’s do the reverse? Make everyone agree everything he does is a disaster? I also think the whole “gaslighting” is on the eye of the beholder. It went from he can’t avoid one single sack countered with he actually did that well Sunday (with data backing it) to a little breakdown of why he is so bad. People are going to have different opinions. I’m also not going to pretend this wasn’t happening Day one with this little QB. 
    • All this great stuff he has done, how often does he do it?  I have it at three or four games out of 14 where he was very good and then you get a drive here or a series there where there are some good things. Here is the gaslight part: everyone has put him on a curve with his first year the baseline, neglecting to understand how bad he was then. Even if he comes back twice as good, where does that really leave him? 25th ranked or thereabouts.     He had so far to go, and still does, it is a Major ‘settle’ to accept his play as worthy of giving him our future.  You want to settle when the Bucs have Mayfield, and the Saints have overtaken us at QB? We will be third in the division at QB. That is good enough for y’all?
