Our short passing game

[Flash7]

It was very evident that we focused on having a short passing attack. I think that it's about time that we adjusted to our O-line's inability to pass block consistently. Luck was hit much less.

 

I think that the short passing attack obviously helped to get the ball out of Luck's hands much sooner. The greater impact was seen as the game wore on. The opposing D-line saw that they could not successfully reach Luck in time and they slowed down. This led to short passes that became big gains (Fleener's catch and run along the sideline as an example), but more importantly, it led to the O-line being able to run block against a less aggressive D-line.

 

I like this approach much better because we are using the pass to set up the run. And once the opposing D-line slows down, it will open the deep passes too.

Well is easy to say this but , if guys dont get open quick or catch the ball its ineffective qb still has to hold in to the ball

Reggie on the sideline teaching "Lost" Brazill Creating Space 101 was perfectly Telling of our Receivers.

 

The only player we have that does it All Day is FleenR. TY gets open but he is successful in barely over 50% of his targets. FleenR 65+%.

Keeping the throws short to help with Andrews accuracy problems is Big.

Lots of crossing patterns using TY & FleenR is the path to success. And those screens.

Hopefully Da`Rick is given a chance as noone else has it to consistently get open and make the catches.

I noticed at the beginning they were throwing some short passes to TRich that were getting some descent gains, but by halftime they had went away from them.

Titans do have a pretty good secondary(they were 4th in pass DVOA if I recall right by football outsiders), with Verner and McCourty on the outside. Your mismatch was getting Pollard in coverage on the backs and TEs. Luck completed like 64% of his passes(his best mark since week 3 vs 49ers) and took just 1 sack
