I regret to inform you my VT schooner fell victim to the post game celebration. These are not easy to find in Illinois. Rest in peace, schooner. And know you died for a good cause. #respect

Here we go.

Are our sidelines just a sheet of ice???

Michael Brewer is a prototype built in some government lab. My goodness.

Whatcha got left, Brewer?

FUCK

Sweet Jesus I can't take much more of this

Post of the night

I am still a member of the Brew Crew

I don't think there's an OC in the country who could have had a successful season with this OL.

The second half should be interesting.

I don't know if that's necessarily true across all types of pass coverage regardless of whether the defense is in man or zone. Some defenses, like ours, are at a schematic disadvantage against screens because they base so much of the defense around pressuring the QB. Looking at Foster's love of extra pressure, I don't think I can say that our defense should be expected to stop 100% of screen passes if everyone plays their assignments, because in our base defense a large percentage of the time we have several extra defenders, often defensive backs, whose job it is to get to the QB, not defend against a pass. In those situations, a screen pass can be lethal if properly executed.

My point is, despite the article insisting otherwise, ANY play that you run the shit out of on practice can be a base play. And it's pretty obvious that we run the everloving shit out of the bubble screen in practice.

And then there's the question of how many of our bubble screens are part of a package play where it could have had a different outcome with a different read before or at the snap?

It was an interesting read, though, and it leaves me wondering if Lefty is suffering from either too many or too complex base plays. Thanks for the links!
