This backup dude looks more like an NFL QB than Bryce tonight

Yet they're afraid to let him run some routes on offense over Mingo and TMJ lol

Wow the guy that can't buy a snap on offense scores a return td.

Can't get it over the defender without his point guard lob style. Wasn't his worst footwork but still looks really jacked up

mhmm

I don't know if I'm ready for another one of these and I didn't even really watch the Colts game. I was going to watch the 2nd half but took a look at this board and Twitter and opted out

Or play man against our slow WR's and send 5,6,7 guys if you get bored of zone. Either way

Frank might call that "cheating". Dude knew the ball wasn't going more than 25 yards in the air so he just turned around to take a look lol.

Yeah Herbert is supposedly out as of a few hours ago, and they're playing with a backup QB. Also Blackshear can snake some Chuba snaps even if Sanders is still in the dog house

I mean you can grab a clip of him throwing 15 yards or whatever, time it and then convert it online from yards/second to mph. Not exact science but enough to know it's way more in the 50 mph range than the 60 mph CJ and AR threw at the combine. I think that's a big reason why he didn't want to throw side by side. When he threw alone at his pro day it's easier for people scouting him to see it as "good enough"

So basically the Colts/Broncos TNF game from last year? That was so bad it was entertaining, but that was also before anyone could have dreamed that Reich would get fired there just to get hired here and coach just as badly

Since he didn't throw at the combine I did the math on his velocity and it's like 50mph when he tries to put zip on it

I think they do. Only number I remember reading is we were in shotgun 75% of the time through his first 4 games. We were also only running the ball like a dozen times a game for all but game 1 it seems like

Good point, Twitter/GMFB is saying Herbert isn't getting activated tonight

Josh Rosen, Jimmy Clausen not busts?

Speaking of I have to either play Chuba or D'onta...

And is it just for 1st down formations? Those will tend to be more hand offs than play action if you're under center. Except for the last pick 6 in the Colts game where we went play action on 1st down after the long Hurst pass for some reason

Play action/under center snaps are oddly hard stats to find online but this was his last attempt at one. He also only ran like 4 plays under center in college or something crazy like that. That makes the run game/play action game really tough to execute. Yeah the Eagles are in shotgun a lot as I'm sure someone will point out but Hurts is a running threat out of the gun so it's different.
