Re: Cards vs Skins Postgame Freakout

For once I'd like to see us sell out on running inside the five, bring in a heavy jumbo set and just run it three times. Commit to being physical, are you really telling we can't punch it in behind Scherff and Morgan?

I think we all want that. McVay apparently thinks we want wild cat plays, fade passes, and shotgun formation with no threat of the run.

I'd settle for at least lining up under center with Kelley in the back field even if you pass all 3-4 times. You have to make them be prepared to defend the run.

Re: Cards vs Skins Postgame Freakout

Breeland and Preston Smith have both regressed this year. They've both only had like 1 good game. I still have faith in Breeland, just needs to get his confidence back.

I'm worried about Smith, is he always going to be one of those guys that is just too damn lazy to do anything with his talent? Did he even play yesterday? Didn't see that he was out but don't recall even noticing him.

I thought Smith would be a 12-to-15 sack guy, this season.

He's not very good right now. I'll roll with sophomore slump and hope next year he's better. When u see his expression he doesn't even look like he is pumped to be in the game.

He lacks the quickness, foot speed, and pass rush moves to play OLB in a 3-4. The only hope I see to get value out of him is to have him gain 30 pounds and move him inside.

Re: Cards vs Skins Postgame Freakout

I DID like that little bootleg pass that Kelly dropped. That was money with Gibbs. I think Sellers had 10 catches that year for like 10 TDs. No one could stop it.

I did too - except Kelley can't catch worth a damn. In the GB game, they had a couple of wheel routes to him - both times he was wide open with green fields ahead of him but dropped both. Has he caught a pass? After the GB game, when everyone was all peaches and cream, Gruden praised Kelly but added, half-jokingly, "he needs to learn how to catch a ball in the flat."

Sure he SHOULD catch the ball, but good coaching plays to strengths ESPECIALLY in the crucial moments. Passing the ball to Kelly is not playing to his strength - I don't care how well designed the play is. McVay SHOULD KNOW THAT and not call on Kelly to catch passes at crucial moments.

What Kelly is good at is getting skinny and driving for a two yards when only one is available b4 contact. DO THAT!

Re: Cards vs Skins Postgame Freakout

I know there are times QB's will have predetermined throws on the goalline. Particularly, when a fade is called. But, Cousins shouldn't recognized something pre-snap. Besides, we haven't converted a fade all season.

Freeze the video at 2:15.... Just take a look at Crowder (at the bottom of the screen).

That's what I was wondering... and find really stupid. How can McVay keeps calling for that "automatic-don't-look-for-any-other-option" quick fade although it never worked ?! ... Crowder was wide open...

I agree with you, and I don't understand. A fade play to a 5'10' finesse guy?

If Davis couldn't do it, at least Garcon (even though he's about 6'0') is capable of out-muscling the defender for the ball!

Re: Cards vs Skins Postgame Freakout

If kirk had half a second longer on that last throw and he plants his feet crowder scores a td. Just saw the tape on ESPN, kirk has to see that blitz and get it out quick. It's something he has to work on.

I said the same right after he threw the INT (I felt Crowder would've scored).
