Ian Thomas vs Tommy Tremble

I know we're all down on Thomas lately but he actually had a mostly pretty good game. Was solid in the receiving game on very few looks (and was wide open in the end zone when Darnold missed him) and did have some other nice plays as a blocker. Tremble was also good as a blocker. Arnold didn't show much but, again very few looks. Clearly Brady doesn't utilize TEs in the passing game much. I'm fine with rotating these 3 guys like we did yesterday, none of them are great at this point but as a whole I don't think the position is a massive weakness or anything. No reason to get rid of Thomas.

Take a look at this play right here by Ian Thomas bottom right of the screen..

Thomas gets tossed like a rag doll by 47 who ends up making the tackle on CMC. 

 

Isn't this why we drafted Tommy Tremble? 

Thomas has to be able to make that block or he shouldn't be on the team.

    • According to ESPN stats, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are 24th in the league in motion at the snap, only using it 14% of the time. The team does employ motion before the snap quite frequently, though, as it runs motion %43.7 of the time in general. When asked specifically about motion at the snap, Bucs offensive coordinator Dave Canales confirmed that it's in Tampa Bay's arsenal and that it can be a big help on offense. "It's a part of what we're doing," Canales said. "It allows us to stretch the defense horizontally. All you're trying to do is create a moment of indecision for the defense and then that helps the run game, helps the pass game. Switching the responsibilities to create free-access releases at the line, that's a big part of it." Tampa Bay's low percentage of using this type of play doesn't mean that it won't increase in the future, though. Canales said that while some teams are doing a great job at implementing it in their offense, others like the Bucs are catching up to speed. He mentioned that he first saw heavy usage of pre-snap motion when he was with the Seattle Seahawks and played the Los Angeles Rams twice a year. "[The Los Angeles Rams] really utilized that from the time Sean [McVay] had been there in LA. It's something that's been around for a while, and I think that the rest of us are learning how to utilize it."
    • Yea Falcons should (and hopefully will) get slammed hard for this tampering business. But even without that, Kirk Cousins is solid but the team still isn’t good. Their O is super overhyped based on college production. The RB they got last year looks good but he’s no Barkley or CMC. Their young WR and TE are dookie no matter how much people wanna hype them based on their college days. (And by dookie I mean compared to expectations. They’re mid, objectively).
