Newton Can't Hand Off

Look at other quarterbacks. Some hide the handoff, others leave it out there to make it easy to receive. It is a personal preference of the OC and running back coach usually. So telling Chud may do very little if that is their intent.

Also putting him back in shotgun to pass is part of maximizing his strengths. We are putting in more plays where he takes a direct snap but that is being installed along with everything else. By the end of the year things may look very smooth and orchestrated but right now it is still a work in practice.

Stop nitpicking every little thing as if it a completed project. It is an ongoing work, Rome wasn't built in a day. They are prioritizing and doing what they think is best in their order of importance.

I am intitled to my opinions and to post them here. I see rome has put a johnnyhouse in a bad location, I should tell them it should be moved. You go a problem with my opinions you should never click a thread started by jim stone, or complain to the Roman senate. It's boards like these that are for nitpicking. Lombardy was a nitpicker.

The next time the Roman Senate meets-I'm there!

Lombardy , you would not know.

No I do not know Lombardy or Revera. Vanna buy this man an I.

Evidently you do not know football either. On a hand off what you coach is consistency. You want it to look the same whether it is a run or play action. An exaggerated extended hand off is fine as long as you do it either pass or run. I can flat tell you no safety or linebacker in the league is keying on a handoff motion. By the time he even makes that motion the O lineman are well into their blocks. If a safety keys on that all he will see is the backside of 89 running into the endzone after Cam pulls it back.

    • Roger all that. Do you think BY avoided any sacks last game? This oline is not what you're touting them to be. They are much better then 2023! Much much much better than 2023. But come on now, you'd expect this expensive oline (most are run blocking specialist) to at least dominate in the run game every game.  And... I keep telling you our WRs and TEs are not that good yet. I mean last Sunday was a prime example. Our receiving targets never make plays like those. Never. And this is from one of the worst teams in the league. Shough could have easily had 3 INTs if not for his receivers making plays on the ball. Our guys just don't do that. XL almost allowed an INT backing up out of bounds instead of coming to the ball. And everyone would have blamed that on BY. That's why he doesn't throw to that dude. I can't recall a game except maybe the second Falcons game - maybe, where I thought our receivers could possibly be better than the other team's. I think TMac and Coker have a lot of potential. But they're aren't consistent. But they're young and WILL improve. I'm confident of that.  I don't agree that BY was drafted to only stand in the pocket. He has always been best off schedule - for better or worse. 
    • Do you think you will get a direct answer?  Icky giving up 5 pressures (playing hurt in his defense) by himself and Bryce only getting sacked once tells you he played well in the pocket.  He extended plays and converted some tough downs.  
    • I've been very apprehensive about potentially firing yet another head coach. But Canales needs to focus on being a head coach first and foremost and begin handing off some responsibilities like playcalling duties and begin overseeing the entire team or we need to assess all possible ideal HC candidates in the offseason.
