He shouldn't change plays until he can execute what's called without bailing out of clean pockets or sailing the ball

For some reason Canales wassn't calling things much different than Reich...lol. I definitely didn't see much motion or anything after the very first play that resulted in an int. I guess they tried more under center play action-ish things even though we weren't running the ball? I dunno

This one is good, why not step up into your $100M interior pocket? 

 

He runs 5 yards back out of his pocket which makes blocking for the OTs impossible. He knows it and there is no better option for him so he keeps doing it.

Weird seeing no dump off options but they are keeping so many to help block for that Carr'esk type drop back he needs. I don't really know what DC could do but pick his poison. I can't see one good option of what to do with Young that has a chance at working. It's built to fail.

They should be playing as if we still have McCaffery. Bryce has to be rolling out and throwing on the run for the majority of his snaps. He is a detriment in the pocket because he can't see over the line and lacks the arm strength to be a deep threat.  He should be scurrying around in the backfield until a WR finds seperation in the short field, otherwise he's gotta pick up the yards himself or dump it off. Dink and dunk effectively enough and defenses will give opportunities to chuck it deep and pray. Maybe he's not accurate enough to pull it off but it's the only path to success for him, and what drives me mad is we knew that was his game when we drafted him and still aren't doing it for whatever reason

I missed the game (great fortune that ended up being) but it sounds like they still aren't really doing that. What's crazier is that apparently the OL held up well so they're not the issue. Why NOT do that if this is the alternative? Is Young just a deer in headlights or is Canales another snake oil salesman?

He isn't fast enough for that. His runs worked because they were not at all concerned about his ability and they were not blitzing. It also forces the play to one side which the D would just adjust for, takes any help from the oline away and allows an easy blitz (he obviously doesn'thandle CB blitzs well). There isn't a good option and anything you come up with can be put into a corner quickly.

They aren't doing it because every NFL team has 17 games of tape on Young anyways. Nobody is fooled by what's coming he can scurry around in the backfield all he wants. No one is scared of his arm or his processing ability.

    • The one thing I keep seeing over and over with him is he cannot handle a stunt and struggles to disengage. If he's locked up with an end and someone comes around to his left, they're getting to the QB. I don't know if it's a mental or technique thing, or was a problem with bryce not knowing how to set protections, or canales' system. probably a combo of everything, but he just does look like he fully understands the position. I don't know how long you wait for a guy to figure that stuff out.
    • and for the record, Brooks was a monster at Texas and we should wait until he takes the field before we make a final judgement on the move. As it stands, we already have a very good running back and man it'd be sweet if we had more young defenders, tho.
    • We traded back before we traded up and acquired a future 2nd in the process.  It's not like we threw away additional high picks to get him.  I think it was a couple 5ths that we just acquired or got back regardless.  5th rounds picks were being written off as not worth our time for AT and DJ earlier.   We did however use our 2nd on a player that isn't able to contribute right away and that really hurts with as many holes as we have on this roster.  The pick itself was questionable.  The trade up part of it was no big deal though.  In totality we dropped back some spots and got a 2025 2nd plus Brooks.
