Pick 6 was 100% on Mingo

100% on Bryce.  Slow delivery, stared down his target, late on the throw, no zip on the pass, did not lead his man.  So how is this not Bryce's fault again?

This. OP hurts his very own argument with the photo because he's too hyperfocused on Mingo. That DB is STARING at Bryce and Bryce is STARING at Mingo. Dude knew exactly where that ball was going and jumped the route.

Even if he led Mingo to the 0 in the 30, at worse it's a PBU.  You can't be late on crossing routes. Absolute QB suicide.

It was on Bryce, but Mingo isn't very good right now which doesn't help this whole situation either. Bryce just lacks the arm strength to jam it into tight windows. We are going to have to go with some good effing route runners that Bryce can throw to with more timing and anticipation. His 50/50 balls have been very disappointing so far.

This is what I’ve noticed. He is starting to stare down his first reads and not going through progressions like he was earlier. It’s regression…

A lot of posters in this thread showing their lack of football knowledge. OP is correct.
 

When Bryce is separating to throw, Tremble is not open. Mingo runs the route incorrectly. If Bryce waits until Tremble comes open, he’s getting pummeled bc our line can’t pass block. 
 

We have posters here that think you can screen shot the moment the ball reaches the receiver and use it to see who is open. That’s idiocy.

The closer it gets to the sidelines the smaller the window gets.

I know.  Believe me, I've harped at length about Bryce's accuracy beyond the numbers.  It's abysmal.  I mean, if he doesn't have the velocity to drive the ball inside the numbers, beyond them is even a bigger feat.

Leave Bryce alone!

If Mingo holds his route, his body is a shield between the defender and the ball. Similar to stacking a db when going vertical. As soon as he drifts upfield the db can now play the ball however he wants.

But this throw was outside the numbers and would have hit Mingo in the chest…

The pick was on Bryce. Bryce has to lead Mingo more - period. Throw it out of the reach of the DB and let your WR go get it. Great play by the DB though, he really closed on the ball - he's done it 3 other times this season. And yes, a little more velocity was warranted there. 

Mingo... you always work back to the ball if you can. That's the rule. Catch the ball at it's highest point and work back to the ball. Particularly, never run away from the ball on a crossing/comeback route, and definitely not against man coverage. And... become the DB when you have a threat of an interception. At least touch the guy when he's on the ground. 

Bryce has to take more deep shots too. Take them early and often. He's becoming predictable. It's like a basketball player that's afraid to shoot the ball and always passes instead. Eventually you start to play him for the pass instead of the shot.

Did Strachan play today? Don't remember seeing him. Was looking for him.

You don't think DBs can get in front of a WR who is shielded? Especially when they know the ball is coming their way? They're pros too.

    • I guess i have to add I am curious as well as to what Tepper has done that shows he has backed off.  Thats not a hard ask.  I guess I am in a holding pattern of what to believe until the wheels come off again.  Not saying thats going to happen but there is more data out there to suggest it will vs a turn around.
    • Never a fan of him for us but this is compete BS. Teddy seems like a good dude. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/45740176/teddy-bridgewater-suspended-miami-northwestern-coaching-job
    • Running or being able to run the ball allows you to control the game. You control the pace, score, and time of possession. It does also allow your defense to rest and when they do get on the field, go 100%. That in turn forces the opponents offense not have 3 and outs. That's huge pressure, if the other team is just running the ball while having 14 plays drives.  If you are able to get 3.5 yards a carry and mix in smoke routes that gain similar while allowing the clock to run......you control the game.  Deal is nearly all rules changes in the 25 years have helped the passing part. Young folks and gambling folk want to see 37-45 scores. Those 10-16 score teams are poison and toxic, I don't care personally just win. I can enjoy a 6-3 slug-out just the same as 50-42.  There just too many factors to go over. Running used to be important for playoff ball, cause it was before half the league got domes. Running the ball in snow, cold, wet conditions was the path. Like NE played in that awful division each for 20 years during the Dynasty run, they normally had the #1 seed and home field. Thats why bill always had a #1 defense and enough offense to win. It was a huge advantage.    I have thought you need to pass in order to score, THEN you must be able to run the ball with 7minutes remaining to keep the other teams offense off the field. But if you're setup to pass and get no experience during the game to try rushing plays, who knows what you can do. So I feel you truly need a balanced attack, that's the key and main goal. Run for first downs went you need too and pass for TDs when you need too.
