RocCityRoller Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 24 minutes ago, DC Tom said: The Packers OL is awful. I can't believe it's just the players - do they even have blocking schemes, or are they coached to just run around aimlessly and try to confuse the defense? It's been Buffalo's pass blocking scheme going back to JP Losman..... 11 minutes ago, Don Otreply said: Yup, and so many want to do away with preseason games, the the end result is what you said, the early in season games look awful. personally I'm ok with 2 preseason games, but I think the last CBA limited organized team practices and limited the number of contact practices. Teams have looked more and more sloppy in the first month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s why completion percentage in and of itself is a joke statistic. You could probably have a 75% completion rate if all your passes travel no more than 3 yards. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 This is the problem with week 1 ...limited training camp contact practices combined with limited playing time for starters in the the preseason.

(Might be a good offence though, imagine going out on defence and seeing OJ just standing there, maybe with some gloves and nice shoes?) 2nd, you still disrespected the great white WRs by not including Beebe and Hogan.....

Well, they have Cole Beasley and Daboll is recreating the Pats* offense. I understand you probably shouldn't run the old Raider's style vertical passing game. I'm not against moving the chains and creating matchup problems. But the long ball has to be a key part of your game when you have a fella that can throw it eighty yards and speedy wrs that can go get it. Run game and underneath routes benefit as well. I think they know that, so I'm not too concerned they are going to ask Allen to simply take the easy short stuff. They'll be easy short routes because the D has to fear the chunk plays.

This I think is the biggest mistake coaches make, not tailoring their systems to the players they have. You don't go 'dink & dunk' with a QB who can air it out deep and has a knock of not being horribly accurate. You start finding fast WRs who can get down field and get them the ball. Just like you don't take a weaker armed QB and put them into a 'greatest show on turf' air it out offence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
