Of course the QB will not have time to go through progressions. Wide receiver screen I say or Tight end screen to Cooley I say. Those plays are extremely potent. When defenses don't have a safety to cut Moss off on his way to the end zone. They will call a more balanced defensive set next time.

I think you have something. but is it Zorn's fault? Cambells fault? is JC allowed to change plays at the line? your right about the screens. but I also remember a time with Gibbs people were screaming why all the screens? I think a lot of us have mentioned that JC needs a hot read...ie; TE or WR slants and not always to Moss which teams are looking for now. Maybe pump fake one to Moss and look to the other side of the field and pass a slant to ARE or Thomas or Kelly or even Cooley. Make a go route into a 5 or 10 yrd curl. Something definitly needs to be done about the scheme.
