Bakerfield and batted balls

[DaveThePanther2008]

I initially saw BM listed at 5'10 but he is listed as 6'1" the same a Brees and my hero Johnny U.  Who didn't seem to have as many batted balls. 

How the hell is he getting so many batted balls.  I can understand some pressure is causes them, but it seems he has more than his fair share.

Is it team recognize that BM doesn't get much height off his out passes.  

I hope our tape review team can give a bit more insight.

Bat down Baker

[PghPanther]

He represents a lolly pop kid............a lolly pop kid............a lolly pop kid.

and in the name of ............a lolly pop kid!

He wishes to welcome you to munchkin land!!!

Hes short AND he doesn't have an over the top delivery.  Hes more 3/4 so they come out with a low trajectory.  That being said, he only had 1 yesterday, right?

40 million dollars to him and it will be ROCK BOTTOM

[PhillyB]

he only had one yesterday but it was early so we all noticed it

Yeah its more arm angle and release point than height.  Murray is a damn midget and he doesnt get many. Cam is 6'5" and he had the most in the league.

how many times have YOU gotten your balls batted?

[Basbear]

Panthers cannot overcome any loss of down plays with the current offensive juggernaut......

Word is out-jump in bakers throwing lanes.

OLmen need to punch the jumpers in the gut.

Baker needs to adapt some, maybe add a pump fake or two 

fuging call some plays that allow Baker to roll out in open space, one of his strengths....

Ok I've said this a million times.

 

It's the Olines job to get their hands down.

When the defender jumps you punch towards his balls. They will instinctively bring their hands down in a flinch.

Or they jump and you cut them (unless this is now illegal but it shouldn't be in the free blocking zone) that brings their hands down as well.

Still, on a per-pass level, Mayfield's 2.46 percent passes batted down mark is the second-highest rate in the league among the 30 quarterbacks that have attempted at least 1,000 passes since 2018. The only quarterback with a higher percentage over that span is 6'5" Cam Newton at 2.56 percent.
