Edge had a 4.38 40 out of college. Taylor has a 4.39. At this point in Ryan’s career I’d say it would be a struggle unless Taylor delays getting up to speed.

 

The stretch play is such an awesome play.  The QB has to keep up with the linemen getting out in the zone.   The great thing bout the stretch is you can pull it and makes it great for PA.

Especially when you have a potent running attack. Keeps the defense on their toes.

Jesus East.  Everyone of those plays were zone blocking lol

the second run with JT over Q is not zone. they are power angle.

Nah, compared to how much you pounded your fists about unbalanced run/pass ratios, up the gut vs around the edge running, and most prominently, shallow passing.....your mention of anything else was simply in passing.  As if to throw anything on a wall to see if it stuck later....then pretend you knew it all along.

 

That's not the type of process we readers need to have confidence in our self proclaimed internet lecturers (that we don't ask for in the first place).  We need lecturers that when they pound their fists....wrongly.....about unbalanced play calling, up the gut running, shallow passing...that they then don't change their story to where a bunch of stuff they said in passing was the cause.  We might realize they were wrong in about 200 posts last year.  How depressing for some.

I am not sure if someone mentioned this, but I don't really like KeKe Coutee being the return player for the kick offs.  He scares me and seems like someone can do better!  What do you think?

IIRC, both weeks (Jax and TN) might have been due to WR injuries...

Before that, never more than 4 targets in any game.

And after that, had only total 7 targets in 2 games. 

 

Pierce and Pitt were both healthy for those two games. Though the JAC game is a bit of an anomaly due to the 50+ PAs.

 

I just think PC being involved like this was already happening before the coaching changes. Then Ryan was benched/hurt for Sam. Then Ryan comes back and immediately is targeting PC in the short game.

Those games are weeks 6 and 7. And we had injury issues across the O skill players.

In game 5, Dulin got injured, and out from then. 

In Weeks 6, Hines (and W7) also was struggling with concussion. And JT with the ankle. Both are typically targets, especially Hines. 

PC's snap counts went up, as did targets too. 

 

And worth to mention, Granson, who was running slot routes (which PC was playing)..... Granson's snaps were reduced in W6 and 7 too.
