Considering the injuries and the flight across the world, I thought our D played well minus the penalties (and elam).
the offense…..different story. Dorsey was 💩
It does if he locked down his man 99% of the other snaps. I don’t believe that the only stats that matter are the stats that you linked. There’s more to it.
Listen, I’m not saying he’s a lockdown….I’m just disagreeing with your method for determining a lockdown over a 4 game span. A corner can prove his worth on plays where they aren’t targeted.
Like the bills put it on Josh 53 and 54% his first 2 years?
no one is saying to take the ball out of AR15s hands. He can pass 53% of the time (while also run 5-10 times per game) and still develop. But if the run game sucks…..then opponents won’t have to play them honest and it’ll make it more diffuse on the young QB.
I just don’t see how paying 2 years of gtd money will hurt THIS team. It could hurt others, but Ballard has them in a decent position- 70M under next season with room for more while paying the QB pennies for 4 more years….
The bills passed 53 and 54% of the time Josh Allen’s first 2 years, while his WRs were 💩. Then they got him Diggs….and it jumped to 62%.
This conversation is centered around AR15s development his first 2-3 years, that’s when Taylor’s contract is gtd.
The colts don’t have the horses in the passing game right now.
if he’s going to be elite….he’s going to be elite, regardless of 5% more pass ratio.
An additional 3-4 passes a game isn’t going to make or break him.going to ruin him. If it could ruin him, they have the wrong QB.
Idk….. I don’t think passing 5% more is going make that much of a difference in his development.
Having an effective run game will help him. The colts WR unit is 💩. If they throw more than 55-60% his development might actually be stunted throwing to a bunch of average guys. Forcing passes to guys that can’t get open. The QBs that have developed nicely have good weapons to throw to. The weapons help them succeed. The colts weapons are unlikely to do that imo. Passing 50-55 seems good for ar15 He can develop and they can win that way imo
Takes the ball out of their QBs hands? What are some examples of this? Like what run/pass ratio are you looking for? Like the niners running the ball 52%+? Philly is 50/50. Det is 50/50. Dallas is 51/49. We’re 55/45. I think 55-60% passes is solid for teams with good QBs. I think 50-55% is good for a QB like AR15 at this stage I’m his development.
Hurts was broken into the league at a 50/50 ratio his first 2 seasons and the colts tum the same offense.
And how can they tell if AR15 can be a QB when they have trash WRs and RBs? Taylor gets 2 years of gtd money. I don’t see the problem in this particular situation. Taylor will help AR15 more than his WRs will.
Meanwhile- if you look at the team rushing leaders- of the top 11, 8 of those teams are the top 8 SB favorites.
yes, it’s a passing league…..but if you can’t run, you’re one dimensional and have little chance to win a SB imo. Gotta be able to run
