Dose everyone like his play calling or do you think we should start out fresh?

When Davidson first arrived, I was really excited b/c of his background with Charlie Weis in NE. He said he wanted to design an offense that, while based on the running game, would be versatile enough to keep us from being so predictable. He wanted to be able to run the ball out of multiple sets and develop the passing game more to keep opposing defense off-guard. Not his exact words, but that was what I took from his first interview after he was hired. However, we all know what has happened under Fox's ultra conservative philosophy and Jake's increasingly declining skills (which were slightly above average to begin with). I suspect these are the real culprits for our offensive woes, since we were dealing with the same thing when Henning was the OC.

With all of that said, I'm a litle undecided. One the one hand, I want to see what Davidson could really do without his playcalling with Fox's influence and a bonafide starting QB; on the other hand, I would't mind bringing in a frest approach to our offensvie scheme. I'm sure this will more than likely be decided if or when a new HC is in place anyway, but that's JMO.

How much does John Fox have to do with the play calling, offensive or defensive? Does Davidson and/or Meeks give Fox a few plays that he thinks would be good for the situation the team is in, and Fox chooses out of those? Or is it all Davidson? All Meeks? These questions weigh in heavily on my answer to the thread...

      Redzone Offense vs. KC by drive

      By Icege · Posted

      NFL Pro has the All-22 up already 😄 Going to grab a play or two from each redzone series to put screenshots to. Looks like AT angled his route off to the near pylon rather than the back corner where Bryce was throwing to. I imagine this is something they'll quickly try to figure out with Thielen back from IR. After watching the All-22 again, this was actually a pretty nifty play. I thought it was a TE screen to Tremble because of the way XL charged the DB, but he quickly shed and kept upfield as seen in the second screenshot. This looks like it had multiple layers built into it with AT running the crosser, XL the fade, Tremble to the flat. The progression would call for the play to go to Chuba here as the LB does follow Tremble out into the flat. Ball hits Chuba low and in the hands, but the LB does a good job disrupting the catch.

      Crazy stat

      The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
