Screens, end arounda, crossing routes I agree with this as well. This season he's essentially: A decoy to occupy double coverage downfield while Boyd/Eifert do work underneath. Ever so often take a deep shot down the sidelines (just to keep the defense honest but also it has to be near the sidelines so if it's not complete, hopefully it'll be out of bounds). Bubble screens and end arounds I don't trust him on crossing patterns, comebacks or quickouts. He quits on his route and it's an INT... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO i'd design some plays specifically for him at the beginning of the game. Whatever those are. If it goes well, maybe he can have a good ballgame. If it doesn't, then you probably limit his involvement in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmittyBacall Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Just pepper the hell out of him with targets. Force him the ball. He needs to get whatever mental roadblock is hampering him out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're going to need to clear a roster spot for Burfict in another week anyway. Would they just leave the spot open you think? The team is relatively healthy, so they don't need all those inactive spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw Brown get washed in the running game too much for my liking. He can get penetration at least. But we need someone that can protect our subpar LBs a bit...

Tyronnosaurus Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 How has Andrew Billings looked? And is his injury serious? You guys still optimistic he can be a foundation piece of the defense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
