Pete Prisco blurb

I went to the Giants game and had a couple of observations . First on offense , with the read option Williams doesn;t get a good running start as he does in the power I. On defense , you could tell where the throw was going because the defense was playing 8 to 10 yards off the receiver. why couldn't they play tight and jam the receiver before he got in a route and slow him down giving the line a chance to get to the QB. Thoughts ?

Because McDermott was trying to prevent the big play at all costs. The Giants called him on it and we payed dearly.

Jon & Kate plus 8 option read? Lol wut?

Chud doesn't do read option, triple read option, or even quadruple read option plays. He goes to the fertility doctor and gets impregnated with 8 options on every play, and even though the world is crumbling down around him, he fails to realize that it's his mad scientist play calling that is dooming him in the first place.

Until you can convince me that he is more likely to get hit and hurt running versus sitting in the pocket and getting blindsided by a 300 lb DT I can't say that running him is a problem. He himself said he is less likely to get hurt on the run where he can see everyone coming versus getting blindsided by staying in the pocket.

Should we believe the player himself or a guy who has never played meaningful football in his life.

The issue with the offense, in my opinion, has nothing to do with a potential injury risk to Newton. He's a very big man, and he's more likely to get injured with blindside hits in the pocket than he is with visible head on contact in which he gives as much as he gets.

The issue is play calling, and offensive design. I have no problem with Cam running an option, or designed QB runs. I have issue with the offense being designed out of a base option set.

It took a couple seasons before Carolina figured out how to stop Michael Vick- they spied him with Thomas Davis. Here we are several years later and the Panthers have an OC that's flabbergasted that someone figured out how to slow down Cam.

And for those who didn't watch Washington yesterday- RG3 got planted about 8 times, and all of them looked like they hurt.
