the screen pass


The Other Colbert

Recommended Posts

I see teams run this play to perfection every week, setting it up and having a lot of success. We have 3 explosive HBs very capable of catching the ball in stride.

The screen pass also will take pressure off the pass rush during a series.

After watching many of Jimmy Clausen's highlights from Notre Dame, he knows how to run the play... often.

So why wasn't this play utilized to not only build Clausen's confidence but get effective results...

I'm looking at you Davidson

Let's flip it around a little. How often does our defense get blown up by a well-timed screen play?

That is one thing I noticed that TE screen was fooling the panthers D every time, they must of got 3 3rd down conversions from it.

While the smoke route to smith is a nice play, I would also like to see a

RB screen, or a short pass to a RB in the flats.

The panthers also have the personel for that TE screen as well.

    • I'm honestly looking beyond DC at this point. He's too green and is making too many simple mistakes. I think he's gone after next year. I think the intention in LV was to use Mayer and Bowers similar to Gronk/Hernandez in NE. That's never really struck me as Carroll's MO though after watching him for years out here in Seattle.  He's talented enough and I think he just got lost behind the phenom that is Bowers because he couldn't develop in Carroll's system. I'm surprised Bowers is used as much as he is, though they really don't have anyone else. TE's don't really exist as focus receivers in Carroll's offense. I live in the PNW so I've been subjected to a lot of Seahawks football.  Coaches other utilize their TEs. We should too. Tremble is OK, but he's always been a project as a receiver. Again, all this is of we could get him at the right price. I wouldn't pay a lot because we need to spend on defense. 
    • David. Hey, money talks.....it has been acknowledged that Tepper isn't shy on spending. He's had the NFL equivalents of used car salesman after used car salesman line up to grift him of a big chunk. Canales is one of them.  Until that changes, it's gonna be tough to build anything to last.
    • Well it's who they tied themselves to for at least another year but i agree. They will be lucky to find a useful contributor but until I see the DC situation change I am presuming it's SSDD. Well it sounds like maybe in 2027.
