He can throw the wheel. I’ve seen him do it with my own two eyes . Also when I say throw to the backs I don’t mean dump downs in the flats . I mean having them run slants ours digs and fly routes against slower LB. We used to do it with Perine even when we had NFL receivers.
I don't disagree with that. Billy needs to get the ball into the RBs hands like the Chargers get the ball to Austin Ekeler
Fair enough. He can throw downfield. But I’d like to see him hit a 5 yard dump pass. I’m just saying.
It boggles the mind . The bubbles are always poorly thrown and our guys don’t block well on them anyway . It’s been a poor play all year and despite it never working or going well we see several every ballgame. It seems like on others he hurries them like that one he almost shot putted to Johnson that fell incomplete
Not ours.
I’ve been wanting him to play all year. He was great in the spring game. I couldn’t figure out why Dean stays in the game and McMillon gets no play.
The player who is doing the circle jerk motion is going to be one of 2 things. On rare occasion they will throw the ball to him immediately as another version of the WR screen. For us it is never succesful b/c AR can't put the ball on the front shoulder to keep him in stride. But 95% of the time this guy is our outlet receiver stansing on the sideline. This allows for the defender responsible for him (man or zone) to sluff off and help elsewhere. If the ball is thrown to this player, it is such a long throw it gives the defender plenty of time to rally up for a tackle.
One basic reason is to help identify the coverage (whether the defense is playing man or zone). Helps the pre-snap read. Could tell the QB whether the play call is optimal or the need to audible out of a bad call.
