Campbell: More Pluses Than Negatives

isn't the number of step drops pre-determined? i'm pretty sure that amount is part of the play but i could be wrong...

Then the playcalling should be adjusted because it seems like he is dropping back way to far right into the path of the DEs

Yes it is. It probably just looks like a further drop because he's so tall and has long legs.

Did anyone else notice his really low crouch under center? You can barely see his head behind the linemen and he's just about on one knee. Hey, if it works for him...let him do it. Maybe it keeps his hammys stretched for when he scrambles.

Post game he said he's doing that because he doesn't want CR to alter his snap that much, but it's something they'll work on together during the off season.
