8PM (EST) tonight - going to take a fresh look at Darian Mensah vs NCState (2025) All 22 on discord. I've got to get more charting done.
For anyone that would like to join for the "rough draft" viewing, I'd encourage to join, share your thoughts, questions, etc etc.

Hammer away on that piece bubs.
We're going to have another session at 7pm tonight that should run about an hour.
Well done TJ! I've been a critic of his too! I don't see him as an NFL Franchise QB. The things he should be most consistent and efficient with - he hasn't been the times I've seen him. Oregon outclasses a lot of their opponents to the extent even a guy like Dillon Gabriel can put up eye catching stats at the ease of a layup with that adavantage. He needs a lot more work on what he does from the point he gets the snap until the time he releases the throw; because it was a flippin mess. He put the ball on the ground during playaction fakes sometimes without any defender causing it too much for comfort.
This may be a moot point because Oregon is in the shot-gun a high pecentage of the time. That being the case you know what I didn't pay any attention to TJ - that you might have? At any/all direct snaps under Center, how often does Dante Moore open to his right? Or, to his left? And does one of those have a much bigger influence in the sloppiness he needs to clean up in play-action?
I only have a handful of games all-22 for Moore. No snaps under center (yet) I'll post more as I find it.

This topic has come up here on the board, and I was just talking about it last night with a friend/former teammate.
I know @flugel mentioned something like a 'cut down' content series to go over more fundamental stuff for fans.

Thanks TJ! Great example of an effective playcall against a talented Front known to produce 1st round draft picks at DT. The Eagles landed 2 of them in successive drafts. When you play someone like that - your margin of error already walks a very thin tight rope so in your example take what is given/least of all evils. They moved the stix doing so.

You asked why Mensah is falling down my board. Long winded, but this might help.

First camp in the books. I'll be back tomorrow, and then another couple dates next week (unless I snag tickets for Friday)
The big stuff you're probably wanting to know.

Not sure why, but I've ignored short form content on Youtube & Facebook until the last few days.
That will change moving forward.
So for those of you that aren't about twitter, but you have Facebook and/or YouTube, by all means, give a follow/subscribe.

The play was designed to go to Corely. That's where Sheduer was focused. It's supposed to be a timing throw. The problem was Corely ran right up to the defender. The receiver has to button-hook that before he gets into the defender's lap so there's a little space to fit the ball in.

Button Hook
So the play design is to the trips side. Something I'd prefer Shedeur, along with a lot of young QBs, to challenge themselves to work progressions over there more. Too often these young QBs, my biggest knock was on Dart last year, think they get 1 on 1 to the X and just rip it.
The result is very boom or bust.
The matchup side, the "solo" side is Corley. QBs can be given some freedom in pre-snap adjustments to their X. Based on the level of trust & coaching staff.
But let's use your strategy.
This was when Corley began his break. If he "button hooks" even solner than that, you're looking at being, bare minimum, 2 yards short of the sticks. Meaning he has to catch and create YAC on a hitch.
It's just not a prudent formula to success unless we're throwing to Steve Smith.
The corners, much like what we saw a lot last year, are sitting either +2-3 or "heavy" at the chains.
Corley did a fairly reasonable job working back to his inside shoulder, then getting back to an outside shoulder throw. The placement by Shedeur, to the outside, is correct.
But this pic is also proof that the timing is the issue. Shedeur should be in his throwing motion by this point - he isn't. So the two factors that compose the bulk of throw success, timing and placement, only had one met.

Yup, but running into the lap of the defender means no yards at all. The defender knows where the sticks are too. There was a favorable man to man situation there but the receiver didn't create any space. Would've been awfully risky to let that one fly earlier. Obviously Sanders and Corley don't have the pattern timing down pat. - 1st preseason game.

There are two ways to create space in this instance.
Break well before the DB, short of the sticks.
Eat Cushion, try to get the DB to open and/or get into his chest and disengage off that leverage.
You're saying the 1st one is a no go.
But you're saying the WR can't use the 2nd to create space on a hitch. This 2nd one is how we've been watching Denzel Boston create separation on the hitch all of camp.
We're going to just have to disagree with this one. Sure, it isn't Boston, but the timing is poor on a throw that is SBS.

Higher level Football eval here. I gave as much info as I could to help show people what it all means.
TL;DR - Watson fucked up. Then he was given the opportunity to redeem himself and, well, totally fucked up a 2nd time.

So on the INT he totally misses seeing the under cutting open shallow going L to R and just throws up a pumpkin. Hell even I can see the guy open shallow across the middle.
EDIT: Didn't Brady make a living isolating receivers like that and trusted them with decent YACs? That's why he had all those flea receivers doing the tough things.

Been waiting to see more of this. Coach Rut has brought over and is SLOWLY installing these structures for the defense. Got the best example of the pre-season so far with this one.

Sorry I'm way late. For those of you who would like an extended look at Arch Manning vs Florida on the All-22, I'll be live on discord, sharing my screen for a "rough draft" in about 20m
