I know it's minor, but what was up with the snaps?I swear Nichols had to reach for 1/2 of them.

 

But yeah, I think I'm done as well. Was too hard to watch at 10 am and not drink.

 

My Sunday morning.  Hey Tom Brady is on!!  Twenty minutes later - switch over to TSN - oh look it's 6-0 Als!  Back to Tom Brady...switch back an hour later...oh look it's 22-3 Als!  Back to Tom Brady...switch back an hour later...oh look its...oh who cares...Tom Brady is playing! 

 

 

Started off the the Bomber game myself .. but .. having Sunday ticket .. the decision to stop flipping between TSN and ANY other football game was easily made before the half.

Was too nice outside to stay in to watch the game. Had the radio on in the back yard while soaking in the sun and having one last float in the pool. Had intended to go in and watch the game after but really... who cares... plus it was Rod Black.

But were you drinking?

Got up early for the game. Turned it off at halftime, went to the garage to play drums and work on my LED ribbon lightshow.

Missed out on some prime gardening opportunity......

Picards snaps are brutally bad.. they so slow up the entire offense tempo.. you can see it.. Backs are sluggish, recievers waiting or off their routes..

 

I figured when willy got hurt.. our season was done.

But it took an enormous amount of indifference and incompetence to make it so.

I gotta think that Picard's snaps are part of the reason we are having so much trouble with blitz packages this year.

 

Generally, if you make the right read; have the right protection; and your receivers adjust their route correctly (go hot), the QB still barely gets the ball off in time to avoid being a target for a big hit.

 

Picard's snaps taking an eternity to get to the QB has basically meant that our QB's get nailed consistently on blitzes because everything they are doing takes that much longer after when the defense can start going for the QB

I am by no means a football maven, but if the ball takes an extra quarter-second to get to the QB, it shouldn't be critical.

It's all about timing on O, a bad snap, a high snap.. a floating snap throws it all off. 

Also, QB has to take his eyes away from the LOS.....slows down reading progressions

 

The operative word here (and in this O, for that matter) is.........slow.

Slowness seems to be part of the package. In our schemes, by time the RB gets the ball, and runs to the hole, where the blocking WAS, the hole is just a memory..

How far can Clarence Denmark run in a quarter second? If we're throwing a quick timing route and the ball is out a quarter-second late, that's probably an incompletion .. or, as Valderan notes, a wallpapered QB.
