PLay CAlling (Bad on purpose)

[smashmouth]

I just wonder if BP is calling a bad game on purpose. He's had some questionable calls especially when we wound up with 3rd and 50. I just wonder if he's doing that to not give away what we really want to do in the future.

Exactly what play do you call in 3rd and 50?

Before it got to 3rd and 50, he called 3 consecutive run plays that kept moving backwards when it was 2nd and long and 3rd and long before the holding penalties.
I'm wondering if he's doing it on purpose.

Quarterback sneak... it's the last thing the defense would be lookin' for...

He could be just letting his asst's call the play to find out who not to trust with real responsibility.

But what I think it is, is that magic eight ball keeps telling him, the prospects look good," whenver he asks about a play.

I wonder who is calling the plays

 

[jazzcat22]

these games are not 'game planned'
they want to see certain players in certain situations
emphasis is not always put on the correct play as normal

 

[smashmouth]

I can go with that.

Well....it has been said last year and by fans of his former teams and also by announcers, that he has lost in pre-season on purpose....we talked about this last year. He does it so that he can really lay into them.

Whether it is true or not....who knows.
