The 50/50 Ball to...DiMarco?


Bakin

Recommended Posts

I don’t mind the shot downfield. 
double coverage, yes...

but Allen gave his WR a chance to get the ball. 
 

Problem is ... why in the ever loving piss would it be DiMarco down there?  

I’m not a Daboll hater - I believe this team needs to continue to add by adding...not subtracting...and I give Daboll another year for sure. He has to do a better job. 
 

And putting DiMarco downfield when you had the smarts to activate Duke....????

 

I just don’t get it.

There's a lot that just doesn't make sense from a coaching standpoint on the offensive side of the ball.

 

One of my big issues though is there are people that only mention Daboll about this. McDermott's the Head Coach. Ultimately, this falls on him. The overarching philosophy, the choice for OC, and gameday preparation and management is all part of the Head Coach position.

I'm guessing the All 22 will show that DiMarco was in to block, then went out to the flat as a safety valve, then just kept going downfield as Allen had a ridiculous amount of time to throw. But DiMarco needs to come back to the QB hard when Allen is stuck, and Allen needs to know it's DiMarco there and not, say, Knox.

It was a broken play that was extended due to no pressure. Dimarco was down there because the ball should have been out of Allen's hand quickly.

Yeah. I'm guessing it was a wheel route that got extended based on the way the play transpired.

Horrible decision to throw that but for F*** sakes DiMarco almost had it, he just jumped way too early. No athleticism at all. Dimarco is also gone next year. 

I don't know why he was on the team this year....Lee Smith, Tyler Kroft both should be gone too.  Kroft had 6 catches in 11 games.   WTF is he on the team?  I would start Sweeny over Kroft.

 

The big question is WHY was DiMarco even on the field during a critical time in the game?  The only way I see that is if your other RB's are injured and they weren't.

hell, our FB pulled 2 defenders 30 yards out of the play- a win until we throw it at him

 

if He pancaked two guys we’d celebrate him

You have a point. With 2 guys covering DiMarco, somebody somewhere who can actually catch the ball was wide open ....

Replay from the endzone clearly showed no one else was open. It basically was a punt on 2nd down.

On that play Lee Smith was also way downfield with DiMarco. What play call has these two speedsters running 40 yd routes?

That's great ... I didn't see that. Seems like Lee Smith got plenty of snaps today.

DiMarco was about as useless as a player can be this year. Lee Smith did his job, but that job was limited.

A punt can be intercepted? A punt on second down?

Saw that on the replay, he did jump too early.  I glossed him Breasts on a Bull, because he is totally freakin' useless.  There have to be fullbacks in the league that can run, catch, block, AND MAKE PLAYS!   The next play DiMarco makes will be the first.
