Protocal69 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 (edited) Last week Ravens ( Lamar Jackson ) threw a TD pass to a wide open the TE Andrews and I was like that play looked familiar so I pulled up the BILLS game against the Vikings where Croom scored the wide open TD. Just like I thought the same play out of a different formation with the same motion. They say its a copy cat league but damn.

HOF4LOU Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 I was just thinking we should copy that watkins TD from last week where he was wide open. Im hoping OCs lose the arrogance and steal plays weekly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Greg Roman is a top 10 OC in the league. He got fired here to save Rex and his lardy brother's arse.... 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. WEO Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 (edited) LOL ...the "Croom TD". good times... Edited September 17, 2019 by Mr. WEO 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigPappy Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 To me, it's not that he stole the play...it was his offense that we ran, he just took it all with him when he left. It actually speaks volumes negatively to Greg Roman if you ask me. He's doing nothing but recycle his playbook, which he probably got from someone else anyway. Now when I see him all i can see is coach Red Beaulieu played by Jerry Reed in the Waterboy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We weren't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEpsYtown Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 It's a post-wheel concept which is pretty common, but the fact that there were split backs with a guy motioning into the flats was very similar to what we saw. Good observation. It's definitely a good sign that teams are stealing from us. Can't say that ever happened under Hackett, or any other loser OC we've had. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mcvays got his guys to the line so he can see what the defense brings and we had tyrod scrambling and clapping his hands to try and get a snap off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 good, then we know how to defend it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyBatty is alive Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Every OC "steals" plays, every OC recycles old plays and they do it constantly. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed and at times I think he has too big of a playbook. But his track record speaks for itself. He has spent 5 full seasons as an NFL OC and only been outside the top 12 for points scored once despite having two Quarterbacks (Kap and Tyrod) who are limited at best and who the league soon decided were not starters.

It's an offense that works really well with a great defense. Typically a high sack rate but low turnover rate, and a top level rushing attack. Keeps throws to mostly hitches/comebacks and in and out breaking routes, with complimentary go routes. Not a ton of YAC plays but it makes ur QBs reads easy high low reads, uses the sidelines, and uses your QBs athleticism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only talking about the time they take to run the play, obviously Roman is good because he was successful with Kaepernick and with the stupid Harbaugh in his back 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
