Zone Read QB Keeper

[Cdog923]

 

 

That can depend on the type of read you make. Reading the end tends to be a quicker decision than reading a DT or LB. Plus, when he was healthy, there wasn't another QB in program history that could go from 0-60 as fast as Martinez could.

 

That's what gave it such a boom or bust feel with Martinez, yes.

 

The other thing though is, if your line doesn't pick up it's blocks or gets beat, it's a bust. It's kind of a potential high risk/high reward type of play.

 

At this point, I'd rather just hand the ball off to Ozigbo and let him pound it. Then, sprinkle in the run-pass options and draws for Tommy later in the game. It's a great template for us right now that, when Tommy is limiting mistakes, is making us the best team in the West.

 

I'll always wonder how many of Taylor's big runs were really called as "gives" in the huddle, only for Taylor to pull a YOLO and keep the ball.

Side question: Were the boos at 1:15 left in the first half directed at the playcalling (two incomplete passes on down and 2 yards with multiple timeouts available), that there may have been interference on Westy on the third down play (from tv, it didn't look like it) or that we chose to punt there?

The boos were after the replay on the screen showed that the DB arrived early on the play. They weren't directed at Langs or the team.

Ok, cool. Thanks for the info - thought that would have been pretty unfair and not classy if it were at the team or staff.
