And with the aforementioned Tackles hobbled, a quick play strategy is even more crucial. The heat that is going to be put on our QB because of a weak o-line isn't going to allow Reilly to wait on long developing pass plays. He will be lucky if he gets 3 steamboats. With no credible rushing threat to keep the D wary, they will be sending Lbackers, Dbacks etc. etc. I hope the play calling is adjusted to recognize this and that Reilly reigns in his preference for long pass plays.
Tell me how long must a fan be strong? Ans. Always.
Hopefully, Kelly Bates will be able to prevent this porous o-line situation from degenerating into the sack fest that was the first half of the 2019 season (before Chiu was let go). If he can't, they better make use of the more mobile QB option.Sir Purrcival wrote: ↑Sat Aug 28, 2021 11:00 amAnd with the aforementioned Tackles hobbled, a quick play strategy is even more crucial.
