Huskers Working On Passing Game Efficiency

In 2012, IIRC, the same "read" by the WR and QB was mentioned. ie Bell would read the D and so would Martinez. They would then make the "same" read without having to audible to it so as to not let the D be aware that play has changed. It appears that Beck is trying to simplify the reads so the guys are actually on the same page. To many times the previous years, balls were launched into space with no apparent receivers. This was a "busted" read by the QB or WR. Martinez reads a go route and receiver reads the D and decides to sit down on the route. Appears Beck is trying to simplify the verbiage ie get plays in quicker and simplify the way guys "key" or "read" the D to "mentally audible" into the same routes.

That is right. I'm not sure if we were doing it before that but we definitely expanded it that year. Martinez's completion percentage went up quite a ways that year.

I assume we were still doing that last year and that's probably a lot of the reason why quite a few of TA's passes were no where near - he was reading one thing while the WR was reading something else. Obviously he hadn't had very much time to work with the starting WRs. Hopefully with a full off-season they'll get more on the same page.

Yup/. I can think of a few picks that were misreads that the WR read correct and TA did not. That's something that should be rectified this year.

 
Not just the picks, but how many times did Tommy just c$%k back and launch a ball 30-40 yards downfield but the closest player was 20 yards away?
