With the pandemic wiping out the entire off season i think it will make it tougher to design scheme and
work with pollard better as much a sit could be.
but admittedly because of Kellen moore poor utilzation of the RBs in the pass game,
as well as Moore ignoring and phasing Pollard out of the game (on more than one occasion), i believe Polard's
best chances have to come from the influence of Mccarthy and his other assistants.ala Peete/Phillibin,..
- The same ways that can be suggested for Lamb around the line - ala jet sweeps, smoke screens, quick slants,
but i think Pollard has some impressive run skills and tools that can be an explosive impact in the pass game as well
in those designs and game plans as well.
Particularly wheel routes, quick swing and flair passes and those patented RB screens where zeke used to be pure deadly with.
- i've been tracking videos of other top notch designated pass catching backs ala Chargers' Austin Ekeler ,..ex-Eagle Darren Sproles,
. Tarin Cohen, Bears- and ex-Commanders, now Jax's; Chris Thompson .with occasional Alvin kamara Saints.
.and how they are schemed into the pass game.
- i really don't expect Tony to get ball carrying touches with zeke dominating that area; so it may have to be
more so in the pass game,.imo
and it may not be decided and measured by his number amount of touches -but so the splash plays he creates with the
few touches he does get in the pass game. We already know what value Pollard brings as a ball carrier, while his
kick returns and his receiving game will have to be retooled under the new coaching regime.
