We will see what they do tomorrow! I hear ya. I just don’t think knox should be on the sidelines very much vs this D. We shall see 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didnt want to give BB any tape on how we would use him, at least thats a hope of mine lol Seems like every time I watch Josh drop back ( on TV), there's always a back open at the top of the screen. He has to learn to pull the trigger on those quickly before it's a wasted 4th read and a loss of what could have been a positive play.

Agree, could use 2 RBs at times with 1 helping block and sending the other against the LB. I'm sure we will likely see some of it all with TE/RB helping in the back field. Will be paying close attention to how Dorsey handles this situation. Guess we'll see a little of how much he's learned so far as OC 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to go back tonight and re-watch last year's playoff game but if memory serves me, Motor feasted on this exact observation against the pats. 5-7yrd passes in the middle of the field.

Similar to Detroit where the outcome is still in doubt late into the 4th quarter. The Pats are 6-5 and in a tough AFC their backs are against the wall. They fall to 6-6 they can probably kiss the playoffs goodbye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dumpoffs, screens, reverses....heck , how about a flea flicker or some trickery.

I get it, I'd love for the screen game to begin to have some success. As for the flea flicker, I don't know how much confidence I'd have that the Oline would hold up enough for that. Specially right now with Dawkins out 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not going to buy time if the Oline can't hold up long enough for the play to develop. That's my point....we hve been seeing Josh run for his life lately and now Dawkins is out.

Dan Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 33 minutes ago, Patrick Duffy said: I think it's more than the elbow myself. I mean, don't get me wrong here....definitely would say the injury plays a part for sure. However I think it's something else also, possibly his confidence to a little drop and also Dorsey may have toned it down with some of the play calls during this time. Reason why I say this is some of the passes from Josh (ex. 40 yd dart to Diggs where only Diggs could get it) where it seems to me the elbow isn't bothering him quite as much, which I'm extremely happy about. I disagree. I think his elbow is a significant factor into his play lately. I would imagine he feels it with almost every throw and is very much aware that he’s one hit or tweaked throwing angle from a more significant injury. All causing him to think more and over compensate some of his throwing motions. Its those end of the game, miracle throws that are the outlier because he knows he has to do it or lose. So he grits his teeth and lets it rip, so to speak. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One would have to consider he no longer wears the protective sleeve for a week or more which makes it seem it's not as bad as it was.

Success Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Without Harris, the game is ALL about stopping Stevenson. He's a great runner, and also one of the most frequent targets for Jones. Limit his yards and impact, and we might get to enjoy another laugher. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
