Wentz .. its going to be more traditional 5-7 step drop, hold ball let the long down field pass plays develop. We can still run a ton and the PA should be a thing. Problem is doing first read pass plays doesnt really seems to work with Wentz bc I think he processes things slow and then has no avoid/off schedule create abilities. He can step into a pocket then run forward for 7 yards but outside pocket? I dont want to see that.

Heinikes playbook wins if we hold the opposing team to 20 or less points. Razor thin margin of error .. were things just magically happen. Muffed punt deep, safety runs into referree, interception by forearm in endzone yesterday ... 58 yard field goal.

Heinike playbook wins TOP, which helps our D as well. Henike playbook compliments our team better (O line isnt asked to pass pro, they arent good at pass pro .. you dont want Leno going 1 on 1 with a speed edge guy and asking the Qb to drop back 7 steps)


short read -- team plays better as west coast/run (heinike) vs traditional pocket (wentz)
so play CW with the TH playbook and it gives you the ability to have a long ball.

TH really hasn't been scrambling around much.

At this point i run with TH but his leash is as long as a my shoe lace and i am not wearing boots.

He scrambles more than Carson, but so does the first down marker. I wish Taylor sometimes would run for the marker, it seems like he has opportunities to pick up a first with his legs alot and instead forces balls.

Carson is so immobile it would be hard to play him with the TH playbook but yeah it would be awesome to have that deep ball threat in the mix.

I dont think it works like that in real life. Its not a vacuum, if Wentz/heinike is the variable .. the constants wont stay constant.

Teams might bring more 5 plus man pressure against Wentz knowing he doesnt make quick decisions and isnt mobile. Now we go back to giving up 3-6 sacks a game bc Leno cant block outside speed and IOL cant handle a flood/stunt/extra guys.

Yesterday we gave up 0 sacks. And this is a poor pass pro unit.

last week? 0 sacks.

Commitment to run. This is something you could control and the PA off it w Wentz would get this offense into the mid 20s in scoring.

-------------

Both Qbs bring their flaws that effect the way Turner calls plays.

Last few weeks I was thinking we could go kinda college style .. bring Wentz in for like 15 snaps or even alternate drives. Crazy talk .. but the team is having fun and winning .. if even we are never contenders.
