Is it me? Or is......

Postby ParkyPony » Sat Oct 16, 2010 6:18 pm

Pardon looking his intended receiver he plans to throw to right as the ball is snapped. It seems to me that he pretty much passes up on everyone else once he see's the defensive alignment. I know last year June talked about how good Kyle was at looking for all possible options every play. I think one prime example was he was looking for Darius all the way when he threw the last pick before they went up 28-21. Thoughts?

Beasley broke WIDE open in the middle of the field and padron never looked off DJ. Very poor decision on a play that good have gone for 20+

Saw that too, Kyle didn't even look downfield.

Randy Cross said that Kyle needed to stop staring down wr's.

Not enough competition at the QB position?

1) There is plenty of competition at QB, because McDermott is a good QB.

2) He isn't staring down his wide receiver, he is staring down his read. He is looking at a particular defender, waiting for that defender to make a move and then making a decision. On the pic, he was waiting for that linebacker to committ to Beasley. He anticipated the LB following beasley across the middle, threw the ball to the other WR, but the LB had fooled him and jumped the play. Good play by the linebacker.

Biggest problem KP is having in my opinion is that when that option isn't showing itself quick enough, he isn't moving to the third and fourth options. Beasley and the other WR were options 1 and 2. If that LB isn't moving, instead of forcing the ball in, he should have switched to option 3, whatever that was.
