So now Bryce is going to play under center as opposed to a near 100 percent from the gun. If you're going to do a lot of play action, it means "under center," right?

We'll see how all this works out. Canales knows more than me, but it kinda seems like pushing a square peg into a round hole. But, I guess I should quell skepticism in favor of optimism...I guess...

You can technically run play action from shotgun, it's just not as convincing. Almost more like an RPO with pass blocking instead of run blocking. Either way If he truly believes Bryce doesn't need a big fix we're screwed

I remember the days when playing under center was the norm and shotgun was unusual.  

I think it would be a dramatic change for Young but they need to drill this over and over until it he's comfortable.

well, I don't walk away from that talk/plan of action thinking that our new HC believes Bryce Young was a #1 overall give up the farm type QB.   

Any HC in 2024 that is putting his emphasis on running the rock and seeing what happens imo doesn't believe they drafted  someone that has "it".

might as well just trade Bryce Young while his value is still high.  That's not building an O for your #1 overall pick. 

but worth noting, that isn't his QB or pick.  That's the former HC/GMs pick.

So sounds like we're going to try and run a 10 year old Seahawks offense but without the scramble/deep throws that actually made it interesting. Every time Bryce rolled out Wilson style he just threw the ball out of bounds instead of launching one

We also don't have Marshawn Lynch.  But yeah, Wilson scrambling out and gambling big downfield is what made that whole paring work.   Not to mention the historic D.   I hate when teams trying to model after other teams personally.   I think Fitterer is the one that started the let's be like Seattle mindset.  We don't need to try to mimic that formula.

We dont even know if Wilson style is even possible because the WR were so bad at scramble drills, Mingo would run full speed out of bounds

I think it’s more of the Bama offense with some tweaks. Trying to play to Young’s strengths. He will obviously need weapons regardless, but the PA and bootlegs just keep the defense honest and can help the OL.

After a great rookie year, he was a second year player playing a cerebral position in a poo show of an offense last year.

Quickly jump to bad conclusions much? 

You do realize he was a large part of the poo show, right? I don’t know if he can be fixed but the Ily I watched was not even getting a hand on many speed rushers. Not even a hand. No issues with play calling or confusion on who to block or Young or WRs lack of separation, Iky was just plain getting roasted 1 on 1.

Pretty much just sitting down to go through this today but did either morgan or DC say if we are staying with zone blocking or what?

Feel like they are gonna regret that. 

Not me.  His problems are technique and confidence.  When the light comes on, he will  be good.  He was not as bad as people here made him out to be--even as the 2023 LT, he was probably the second best OL He has a lotta work to do.  If we add to the roster, it would be interesting to see us add a LG and make BC a swing T who can play G.

      what do you like do in winston salem

      Keep away from North Winston,  you should be fine. West Winston towards Clemmins is cool. If you're ever at the Peterscreek Walmart, the Pepsi guy is 😎.

      Does Bryce deserve credit for game-winning drives?

      By Mage · Posted

      Game-winning drives have been credited to QBs since the beginning of time

      So, after Sunday's game does that mean we're stuck with Bryce for the foreseeable future?

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      A lot of people have been slobbing all over this last draft but I hate the way that Fitterer/Morgan have built this offense since drafting Bryce. Anyone with eyes knew our IOL was crap but we didn't invest there and instead took project receivers and an injured RB. If you want a lesson in how build for your QB wrong, IMO, this was it. Draft him, protect him, THEN get him weapons. Its pretty much a rule, draft interior linemen, pay tackles. We're paying everyone. We had the opportunity to draft a center instead of Brooks, or perhaps instead of trading up for XL, trade back and take 2 guards/center. We could have paid Lewis and still drafted 2, but Hunt at 100m was just an overpay. And it's not like the guys many of us were begging us to draft were long shots. They're solid starters from day 1. Injuries happen. That's why all your starters can't be high value players. You need rookie contracts mixed in to be able to absorb those inevitable losses on the line. An offensive line playing an entire season together is an abnormality.  Factor into that also paying Moton 44m this offseason with a huge signing bonus when we didnt need to do right now to do him a "solid".  Now we have to sign Icky and possibly Bryce and it's a mess with more money tied up in the offense, inevitable cuts and dead cap coming. That's not even factoring in shifting Corbett to C last year after major injury to start at a position he's never played for an NFL season. It's all stuff that was foreseeable and pretty easily avoided.  The $$ and picks we've spent trying to surround Bryce outside of Tmac (Mitchell and Horn are TBD) have been used inefficiently IMO. Smarter drafting and FA with the line could have let us get more reliable weapons than XL and Sanders in FA. It might not be popular opinion, but I'll take a Bersin with hands that can get 6-8 85% of the time vs a big play XL with greasy fingers.  The part about hitting guys in stride was more about placement, which Bryce has struggled with. Obviously not every route is run to be hit in stride, but they do need to have the ball placed well to give the receivers a chance to do something after the catch. I just used Hill as an example because he's the biggest YAC threat I could think of over the past 5 years.   Receivers can feast on dink and dunk if it's schemed right. But to make it work, that vertical threat has to be there, if not the deep pass then the high speed routes that can spring someone for the huge YAC to keep the safeties from cheating into that 20 yard box all game.  I hope DC and Bryce can keep up what they did in the last game and it isnt just an Atlanta thing. But no matter what, I really want to see some better long term strategy coming from the FO.
