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.

don't think height is issue; look at drew Brees and Russell Wilson

cam had a lot of throws batted down also

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.

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.

      This is about getting open and YAC....and the QB we have.  You basically are just highlighting average depth when targeted vs 2 players. .  And yeah, I often say AT is a small slow reliable TE in terms of what he does for us.   That's what he is.   I think a couple of you want to make this into a Renfrow argument.   I'm a Renfrow fan.  Renfrow does not check the box of what a BY O needs either at the slot.  Renfrow just a niche roleplayer at this level.  it's easy to look up how horrific AT is with the ball in his hands and in terms of getting open.....and it's also easy to look up what a low ceiling of an offense the steady AT diet produces w/ BY.

      The one time he's actively tried to lose was the best we've ever done.

      I simply acknowledge BY is the QB.  And just like we did when we drafted him.....the type O you would need to setup around him for success was always pretty simple.  But we have done virtually the opposite.  XL dropping some passes isn't why we were ranked the 32nd O and 30th passing the past 2 years.  *Ricky Prohel was brought up only in regards to role function he served on the team.  Niche/specialist.   He wasn't eating up the snaps in the O.    AT should have a similar snap %. People could MAUL Ricky Prohel and put hands all over him.   We got to the Super Bowl in part because we were mauling guys (our slot CB).   You can't do that now.  AT has a MUCH easier life and still can't get open.  Or run.    If you live in 3 WR sets, with a weak armed QB, and you choose to put someone who can't get open or run in the slot.......well, your are going to have a weak pass O.  That's by design IMO.
