So who covers Brock Bowers

Best TE in the league? Is the that good?

I watched a lot of UGA football. He’s just a different sort of cat. It’s only week 3 but he’s already leading all TEs in yardage and catches. He has that ‘take this game over’ kind of gear that the elite players possess.

Panthers historically suck at covering TEs, and this season is no exception. Brock is that dude. He takes games over and is going to be the best TE in football this year. We don’t have a LB that can run with him. Horn is the only one that has the size to contest catches but bro has wheels and is an animal to get to the ground. This could be a long day. 

You just roll coverage man. We play a lot of zone defense so it’s not incredibly hard to bracket a tight end. They may get their yards but you stop them from “taking over” the game. Minshew isn’t a threat to run so you’re good.

At Georgia, it was like watching the over competitive dad play the neighborhood 12 year olds at flag football. 

That’s UGA against almost anyone. Hurray mini-NFL model they are following. To hell with the other thousands of student athletes.

    • 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.
    • 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 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
