A word on sacks


lightsout

Recommended Posts

Some people in the game thread have this idea that EVERY throw has to be within three seconds. No. It doesn't. Because not every play is a quick hitter. Some require time to open up. 

 

Sacks were not on Cam. The first, Kalil got destroyed off the edge. Another, Williams got destroyed. 

 

Blame Shula for putting this offense in terrible situations where it's obvious we're passing, allowing the d to pin their ears back and come after the pass rush. It's not about Cam holding the ball forever. If you think that, find the coaches film and please point out the obvious open receiver that Cam failed to see fast enough. Until then, don't talk football if you don't know football.

 

Funny thing is, some of you saying Cam was holding the ball too long were defending Matt Kalil last week when I said he was inconsistent and getting worked.

If this were true then all the sacks would have been within 2 seconds or less.  But at least two were closer to 4 seconds of Cam standing still in a pocket collapsing around him after 3+ seconds, including one of them that contributed to falling out of FG range

Find the open receiver. Sack is better than throwing into coverage

    • i think i go in the opposite direction of most. my ideal retirement is living in some old downtown area in a flat above some shop or something.  life out in the country was just something i got real tired of. My kids actually miss some of living out there, which i understand. that was where they grew up for the most part. 40 acres with a 2.5 acre pond. it was beautiful, but also way too much (and too expensive) for me to keep up with. 
    • FLASHBACK: I remember back when ESPN was just starting--he was their anchor.  They used to show stuff like Rodeo and field hockey--I remember laughing when he went to a commercial mocking a cycling competition in Utah (or something similar--I made that up) and I laughed.  I told my dad, "We may have us a new anchor when we get back from commercial."  When they came back from commercial, Berman was looking very serious and he said, "Any comments by me do not reflect the views of ESPN....The men and women who cycle are dedicated athletes and we are honored to shine light on their sport." (Paraphrasing).  Dad laughed hysterically. My first memory of him--and that was like 1980.
    • Might not have a team without them. Although that probably applies to the Panthers, too.
