Why run a screen to a slow ass TE

[Wundrbread33]

What does Ian do in practice to make coaches fall in love with the TE screen? Lol

If he's jumping and comes up short the ref is gonna assume you were holding him down.

I think that's the point. The ref makes a wrong assumption and throws a flag on what was very obviously not PI. Its a bad call

wrong. you can do that all day if you are playing the ball. that's a call every time if your head is to the ball or you were beat. CJ was playing the ball, that is not a penalty. Plus he wasn't even hooked on him

No, you can't. If the ref judges that you impeded the receiver it's DPI. If he's jumping and comes up short and you have your arm around his waste flags are gonna fly. It's been like that for years, this isn't new.

Jennings is having a nice preseason.

Don’t make me scrub back next commercial and prove you wrong. Cmon. Hate on him but don’t let your bias lead you to a place where you make up stuff.

Post it, I specifically watched it twice, he got slightly bumped and I mean slightly. This was after he tried to jam the receiver and lost leverage.

Why are we watching Dalton lol put Corral out there

CJ has been quietly improving this offseason.  Hopes are high as a backup

in practice supposedly, but this quarter alone he has mad multiple wtf plays

Don't hook the receiver and you don't have a problem. 

[Byrdman4real]

Brown is not great

[Paa Langfart]

Start Dalton.

Dude no. That's a bad call. By the rules CJ had every right to that ball and was playing it just as much as the WR. He was not holding anyone, you can most definitely have your hand on the players back. Just because the ref judged something wrong, doesn't make it the correct call.
