Just gettin' opinions..how may of the sacks were the OL's fault

[TonyN]

talk, talk.

[CRA]

I think most were on the playcalling

[Snake]

At least 3 of them were coverage sacks. Ol held well for what they were

[bigdog10]

Need to go back and rewatch it but not all of them.

Play calling, poor blocking, and a qb who takes to long to make a read and deliver the ball were all equally responsible.

[Kuech the Sneak]

Quite a few of them cam held the ball for way too long

[LinvilleGorge]

We know the OL isn't good.  Apparently Shula doesn't realize this.  With our playcalling, we're not giving them, Cam, or the rest of our offense much of a chance to succeed.

[Cpt slay a ho]

play calling and o line.........it's stupid to see cam getting mash like he did and still call these long developing passing plays, we abandon the run game as well.......tired of this coaching staff not playing to our strengths but further exposing them week in and out

Pretty much this...I think we should have a 4 second play limit in practice where Passing play have to be over in 4 seconds or a horn goes off and the players are penalized in some way. That way the receivers have to get open in that time and Cam has to get the ball off in that time.

Enough blame to go around on all of them.

Hard to tell how many are coverage sacks and how many are Cam just holding the ball too long.

But if you want a QB that just throws it away every time his first couple of reads are not open we will be even worse on offense.

The play calling and offensive scheming can help also.

[LinvilleGorge]

The frustrating thing is that the offense ran well in the 1st half.  The fact that we only had 6 points on the board at halftime was due to failed execution - namely dropped passes.  We were getting the ball out fast, we were mixing it up well mixing in the run game, and overall executing a good gameplan.  It's just that we got plain whipped in terms of halftime adjustments.  The Chiefs came out with a gameplan to blitz the hell out of us while spying Cam with a LB and we never countered their adjustments.  It would've been nice to see a couple of screen passes to make them think twice about their constant pressure.

That's a system implementation. That's routes being designed. Ginn is the ONLY receiver that gets off the line like THAT. Speed kills which is why I was so disappointed we released Gettis, but he couldn't stay healthy

To say Cam was responsible for most of the sacks is another move by "fans" who can't wait to bash him for something. Some people actually thought Cam was responsible for the safety, when CLEARLY he had his back to the pressure and it was EXACTLY 1.8 seconds after he took the snap after center-- don't worry, I timed it. Byron Bell was again responsible for MOST of the pressure that Cam had this game, Gross and Amini played very well, until Amini got hurt of course.

[IamSoClutch]

Quite a few of them cam held the ball for way too long

 

because there was no one to throw to

[jtnc]

You even had the announcers asking why we didn't roll Cam out AT ALL to get him away from the pressure. Pathetic.
