An offensive playcalling concern


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

There's been discussion about the playcalling, but I haven't seen one particular aspect that emerged from this Sunday addressed yet. It's not so much about the plays being called in this case as it is the pace at which they're being called. Something that happened, if I remember correctly, in the first half, has me wondering.

There was a timeout called because the play clock had run low, and Delhomme came to the sideline looking hot. The focus of his anger was OC Jeff Davidson. If you read Delhomme's face, it appeared he was upset that the playcall was slow coming in. So slow, in fact, that the offense didn't have time to line up and execute.

That incident got me wondering if this has happened other times this season. If so, it could be a sign that Davidson is having confidence and/or decision making issues of his own.

That said, I haven't gone back and reviewed tape to look for times when Davidson might have been slow to call a play, so I can't say anything for sure. This could be an isolated incident, but to be certain, I plan to watch for this sort of thing in future games.

Hopefully, it is isolated. If not, it's one of those things that all too often happens at the wrong time.

What about the 3rd down draw play after we got the ball back from the safety??!!!:mad:
