Why is Canalas so pass happy?

30 pass

32 run

 

Were you watching a re-run? 

the runs happened AFTER bryces mistakes.  We need to grind more early.  That drive to set up the XL td, it was all run, it was us imposing our will and simplifying the playbook for the O-line.  See man, hit man, the end. Next play, same.

I know this will get eye rolls coming from me and after a win, but I'm less concerned about that than I am the actual play calls when we do pass it.

T-Mac had 73 of 198 yards receiving today, or 37% of our passing yards for the game.

T-Mac had 8 targets on 30 pass attempts, or 27% of our targets.

T-Mac had 6 catches on those 8 targets, the two he didn't catch was one play that 100% should have been called PI, and the other Bryce sailed the ball out of bounds to where T-Mac couldn't even attempt a catch on it.

When you throw the ball 30 times and your 2nd leading WR has 31 yards on the game, there's no logical reason for your Top WR to have only 8 targets.

I'm sorry, but none of that adds up, why are you not even trying to throw the ball to your best player in the 2nd half of a game you're losing?

If we just barely passed the ball in the 2nd half, I'd get it, but that wasn't the case, again, we had 30 pass attempts today, only 8 went to our best player and top draft pick, it makes no sense.

We won, great, awesome, but it was more because of the Dolphins poor tackling allowing us to have some huge runs than anything we did to actually beat them.  So when that happens, I'm still going to be frustrated by the play calling and decision making by Canales and Bryce.

I'm sorry but this is just dumb.  This season is about one thing and one thing only:  evaluating Bryce.  Nothing else matters.

Every time he throws it to T-Mac, it makes me angry.  Why?  Anyone can throw to that guy, he's too good.  What do we learn when Bryce makes another completion to T-Mac?  We learn nothing, it's just a waste.

We need throws to third string rookie TEs.  We need our OL to let at least one rusher through into Bryce's face every play.  That's the only way we can know if Bryce is our future.

I felt that way before the season started, but I'm sorry, he's already proven he isn't that guy, I don't need to learn anything more about him.

He threw the ball 30 times today and could only throw for 198 yards, which was his 2nd best yardage game this year, he's just not the guy.

Which means this season has already moved onto the 2nd most important thing going into this season after evaluating Bryce, and that's developing our best young players.

You don't do that by only throwing 8 of your 30 passes to your best player who is still only a rookie.  Pepper him with targets and help develop him so he's ready to take a huge leap next year when we get a real HC and QB to get him the ball.

    • I’m an optimist thru and thru. I love any win this team can muster, and Bryce did what he could to keep the team in it, but he’s why the team was out of it to begin with.  I like the guy, but he is not… he’s just not it… and I was swayed by the way he finished last season, but his physical limitations will never be overcome. A one arm tackle stopped him in his tracks en route for 6, among several other plays where an even average starter in the league succeeds.  A franchise QB is supposed to be his own cheat code. Bryce needs a cheat code dude, that is not him, to win. Chuba CARRIED (literally) his ass last season. Thielen bailed him out EVERY game he played in last season. Today: Rico turned in one of the best games in franchise history, Tet was unguardable and put up at least 100 yards on his own (PI yards included),  and the defense basically pitched a shutout after going down big so they could beat one of the worst teams in the NFL.   
    • Jimmy came thru today I hope he is active next week   (2) NFL on X: "Bryce Young to Jimmy Horn Jr. on 4th down! MIAvsCAR on FOX/FOX One https://t.co/HkKw7uXVnt https://t.co/FYOfsxtAMk" / X
    • Rico 10000% saved Bryce Young from being benched for the Dallas game.  The way that game was going there was going to be no way to trot Bryce out next week at home if it kept going like it did.  Bryce probably is safe from bench risk until the next home and home presents itself.    He can’t be playing bad going into that next Atl game and then lay an egg in it.
