Film Room: first quarter passing/formations


ellis

Recommended Posts

Hey guys. Hope all is well. 

I’m breaking down the tape quarter by quarter on this game, but I can tell you already from the first two weeks: Joe Brady is passing out of 12 personnel quite a bit. This is one reason you’re not seeing Samuel with a lot of targets. It’s been effective, I will say that.

Interesting concepts, some of which is straight from Sean Payton’s schematics.

Good stuff Ellis.

This thread won't get a lot of replies because it won't poo on players in favor of drafting Lawrence. 

E: Really thought we'd see more 3/4 wide esp given how our TEs are meh. Maybe Njoku a target next season?

We are using up to five receivers but they aren't all wide receivers. We want to run the same formation but use different plays so we will keep in TEs and running backs and use them like receivers. Hopefully the defense can't predict what we are going to do

I like that he generally gets the ball out quick, that helps a very suspect line looks somewhat passable.

I hope we'll see more plays FOR the TE's if we continue to use two so often.

If we even want to compete this year, Teddy cannot turn the ball over like that.  A super shaky defense and a short field will lead to blowouts.  Real, actual blowouts.  So far, we've been in a one score game in the fourth quarter twice.  That's competitive, which should be our only expectation this season.

Six weeks from now, when CMC is back, we need to be starting to win some of these and we need to not give up at any point.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
