My beef is doing this with over 6 minutes left in the game, not under 4... totally different circumstances. Because they don’t burn their TO’s absolutely as in this case.

Gaining first downs could be just as effective. You either trust your $55m QB or you dont.

Zac is a horrible X's and O's coach. We definitely see that at times and then we see games where it is called really well on Offense. The 49ers and Bills games last year and the Commanders and Ravens games this year. Just would like to see the consistency and I agree with others that Zac has been way too conservative late in games this season. As I always say, Zac is young and can learn.

I would trust Burrow and Chase or Tee over a rookie RB or Moss and a suspect blocking Oline. Keep the game in your playmaker's hands Burrow can keep the clock moving specially with the short routes that Zac loves to call. Two moving parts in Burrow and your 2 best WR compared to 6 or more guys needing to make blocks to bust a decent run. Stick to what got you there the pass and run mixed together. Do not duck into your turtle shell and hope for a win. Go out and win the game with your play makers. The Superbowl year we never took our foot off the gas pedal.

I’m discussing Sunday not historically. Are you? Sunday I completely approve hid decisions with 4 minutes and a 15 point lead RE: Zac's Prevent Offense - casear2727 - 10-21-2024 (10-21-2024, 09:57 AM)Soonerpeace Wrote: Zac has become glued to analytics with a guy available on the headset to be ready for input. But we intercepted with 4:03 left with a 21-6 lead at the Cleveland 30. Already in FG range to seal the game. An 18 point lead under 4 minutes is the goal here as they burned all 3 timeouts. Seems strategic to me. Of course he misses. But still they have no timeouts. They have to score twice and make a 2 point conversion with no timeouts in under 4 minutes. This game he was right. McPherson not making the field goal was the only flaw here. (10-21-2024, 01:59 PM)Soonerpeace Wrote: I’m discussing Sunday not historically. Are you?

RE: Zac's Prevent Offense - Joelist - 10-21-2024 Zac's play calling across the entire game is frustrating but especially when he tries to "put away" a game. It's not just taking the ball out of Burrow's hands. It's our being in the gun WAY too much (especially after saying they were going to use more under center looks). It's being way too far out of whack on run-pass balance which hurts our line in run blocking because they don't get enough run snaps to get into any kind of groove. It's the utter lack of any disguises, plays against tendency or anything at all to scheme our players open. We just line up in the gun and hope our stars win their 1-1s.

Well said, we need much more under Center play from Burrow. We do this and spread the ball around more and this Offense could be unstoppable honestly. The OL is much better this year as long as Cappa and Volson get consistent. The Tackles and Karras have played very well and Chase Brown is extremely explosive and Erick All has added a physical element that I love.

Cappa and Volson are a bottom tier guard duo when it comes to true pass blocking sets. And really, that’s mainly on Volson Can we stop the love affair with Volson? https://x.com/GridironGrading/status/1846582923870261323 RE: Zac's Prevent Offense - Nate (formerly eliminate08) - 10-21-2024 (10-21-2024, 03:58 PM)Frank Booth Wrote: Cappa and Volson are a bottom tier guard duo when it comes to true pass blocking sets.

And they always say stuff like “Volson is headed in the right direction” after he has a good game. But Volson inevitably falls back into bad/mediocre, and these people just stay silent on the matter, or they just lie to themselves and say “he was good, idk what the advanced metrics are looking at” It’s all the time, man RE: Zac's Prevent Offense - sandwedge - 10-21-2024 I agree with Burrow, they hang 30 some points on teams back-to-back and lose, score 20 some points a game in the last 2 weeks and win, what do you want? I'd like to go and throw 48 on the scoreboard every week, but this is the NFL, everyone gets paid to do their job.
