What happened to the screen game? - impactplaya - 10-12-2022
Can anyone figure why Zac isn't leaning on
The screen game more this year.?
Joe Mixon had nice highlight reel TD vs
The Lions last year.
Samaje Perrine I think scored on a screen
Pass vs the Chiefs in the playoffs.
But this season I have rarely seen it executed
With a offense struggling to hit big plays
Downfield a well drawn up, timed screen pass
Is a great way to cross midfield or get into
The end zone.
Heck I haven't seen a TE middle screen
In a minute. I think CJ was the last to catch one
But I think a middle screen to Mitchell Wilcox
Would totally catch a defense off-guard.

They have tried - it has failed.
Anything relating to speed with Mixon and Perine is not going to sustain
Maybe they can get Evans in the screen game. Or just throw more 4th down toss plays to Mixon

Dude all we did was use screens and pass to the flats last game - where have you been?
