Suspect play calling but all that matters is the W

[Coffeedrinker]

Right. Pretty soon we'll be complaining about the way Pep ties his shoes. 

Well, I wasn't going to bring it up but since you opened that can of worms.... he never ties a double knot, so you see if tying his shoes 3 or 4 times a game.  Just double knot them Pep and you won't have to worry about it and concentrate on calling plays that roll Luck to one side of the field.

[Smash Mouth]

Turnovers and sloppy play are the only thing that kept it close certainly not play calling. Griff was a mess today not sure what that was about.

 

I can't rewatch until the NE game ends. I try to reserve comment until I have seen it at least once without the emotion but I am not a fan of Pep and I didn't notice the play calling being awful today.

 

Good win. It shouldn't have been this close but hopefully it keeps our number down for the Houston game. I am guessing -3.5

I re-watched the game on NFL Rewind.   Sloppy play for both teams but had the better and more Red Zone opportunities and should have closed the deal earlier.  But the play calling was fine.  The Red Zone interception wasn't really a rollout.  Luck stepped up in the pocket and escaped to his left.  He has should have taken the sack or thrown the ball away.  A FG there makes it a 2 touchdown game.  I am fine with Pep's play calling - he's mixing in Bradshaw, finding ways to get Richardson productive touches, and I think he's just starting to remember that Allen is a beast anywhere on the field but especially in the red zone.  He's just too much for a LB or Safety.  Pep has settled in and has found good balance

[BOTT]

The playcalling has been terrific. I was a bit puzzled as to why we didn't have Allen in on that 3rd and goal INT that Luck threw. Nobody got open, and Allen needs more redzone feeds. But that's pickin' nits, Pep has won me over. It certainly helps when the players execute as they have been.

And if Reggie doesn't cost the colts two TD's the game is 31-6. Sloppy game, but they overcame it.

[Coaching sux]

you realize that EVERY team in the league uses similar types of rollouts right?  They definitely have their place when used correctly.

Funny, don't see Denver roll Manning out or SD rolling Rivers out. NE does not roll Brady out

[Coaching sux]

John Elway went to several superbowls rolling out quite a bit

so did Jim Kelly and Joe Montana  by dropping straight back in the pocket

[Coaching sux]

Teams roll out plenty against both of those teams

and how do they work out? More times than not it does not end well for the QB

[jvan1973]

Seattle has had excellent success rolling out against the 49ers..

[jvan1973]

Joe Montana and Steve Young rolled out quite a bit in the bill Walsh offense. You aren't very good at this. Stop digging yourself in deeper

[RockThatBlue]

I thought the play calling was fine. What did I miss?

[Coaching sux]

Joe Montana and Steve Young rolled out quite a bit in the bill Walsh offense. You aren't very good at this. Stop digging yourself in deeper

Young yes Montana was a pocket passer learn your facts

[Coaching sux]

Seattle has had excellent success rolling out against the 49ers..

actually the D and running game has had success vs SF

[jvan1973]

Young yes Montana was a pocket passer learn your facts

My facts are QBs roll out in a west coast offense. Joe rolled out plenty. You tube if you are too young to remember

[jvan1973]

wilson has had success rolling out against many teams. He will do it tonight

[Jason_]

Funny, don't see Denver roll Manning out or SD rolling Rivers out. NE does not roll Brady out

Manning absolutely does roll out from time to time

[Coaching sux]

My facts are QBs roll out in a west coast offense. Joe rolled out plenty. You tube if you are too young to remember

I watched plenty of 49ers game during the Montana era. He rolled out one or two times every 15 games Would hardly say he rolled out plenty

[Coaching sux]

Manning absolutely does roll out from time to time

ya 2 times every 10 games th other 99% of the time he stays in the pocket

[jvan1973]

I watched plenty of 49ers game during the Montana era. He rolled out one or two times every 15 games Would hardly say he rolled out plenty

completely untrue. Also, Wilson rolled out twice in his first drive tonight. I guess Darell Bevell is an *

[Coaching sux]

actually it is true. Go back and watch Niners game in the Montana era. Count the number of times he rolls out in a game. Wilson is more of a mobile qb  than Luck

[jvan1973]

actually it is true. Go back and watch Niners game in the Montana era. Count the number of times he rolls out in a game. Wilson is more of a mobile qb than Luck

So now its ok to roll out if the qb is mobile? Luck is one of the most mobile qbs in the league

Of Wilson is more mobile than luck, it is not by much

[jvan1973]

Montana rolled out a lot Every qb in a west coast offense does. His career signature play was a roll out in the redzone in the NFCCG

[Coaching sux]

So now its ok to roll out if the qb is mobile? Luck is one of the most mobile qbs in the league

I guess we will just have to agree to disagree

[Coaching sux]

Gruden had the west coast Off in Oak. Don't member Gannon rolling out that often

[jvan1973]

You can't "member" Montana rolling out either

[Coaching sux]

You can't "member" Montana rolling out either

cause it happened 2times every 10 games

[jvan1973]

cause it happened 2times every 10 games

Yeah, you have a terrible memory

[Coaching sux]

Yeah, you have a terrible memory

so do you. So how many times did Gannon roll out in Gruden's west coast offence?

[jvan1973]

so do you. So how many times did Gannon roll out in Gruden's west coast offence?

I have no idea. Once a game probably. He ran the ball a lot in Oakland

[Coaching sux]

I have no idea. Once a game probably

nope wrong as usual

[jvan1973]

nope wrong as usual

You have nothing to prove otherwise

Bur he did run a lot in Oakland. that's not wrong.

[Coaching sux]

he ran just not roll outs Gruden had him running qb draws a lot. BTW Stanford runs the west coast off Do you know how many times Hogan rolled out on Sat vs ND?

[jvan1973]

I was at that game. Neither team ran one. But Brian Kelly calls them pretty often for the Irish

[Coaching sux]

I was there as well. My point is west coast offence does not auto mean qb roll out, BTW Stanford the week before vs Wash did not roll Hogan out once and Stanford is known as a West coast offence

[SteelCityColt]

Funny, don't see Denver roll Manning out or SD rolling Rivers out. NE does not roll Brady out

 

They're not exactly mobile QBs, I don't think anyone was suggesting rolling out statues. 

 

It's fine to not like the concept of the play but can you accept that quite a lot of NFL coaches don't agree with you? 

[SteelCityColt]

Of Wilson is more mobile than luck, it is not by much

 

They're on a par IMO, Wilson I think has a slightly better 40 but Luck is a deceivingly shifty runner. That and he's a scary big dude.  

[YOUR GM]

This thread is stupid. Stop arguing with this guy

[Coaching sux]

This thread is stupid. Stop arguing with this guy

coming from the guy who thinks the roll out is the best offensive play ever invented.

just not a big fan of it. I rather the qb have the whole field to scan rather than half of it. Just my opnion

[thedude]

Play calling is always going to be second guessed by fans.

[Coffeedrinker]

Funny, don't see Denver roll Manning out or SD rolling Rivers out. NE does not roll Brady out

Then you don't watch their games.  They all move the pocket by rolling the QB to the right.  About as often as the Colts do it.
