So here are a couple of thoughts for you that should be included in any analysis (Coaches look at this stuff): 1. How many passes were delivered accurately that were dropped as a total number and percentage of total pass attempts; 2. How many incomplete passes were poor passes as a total number and as a percentage of total pass attempts;…
So here are a couple of thoughts for you that should be included in any analysis (Coaches look at this stuff): 1. How many passes were delivered accurately that were dropped as a total number and percentage of total pass attempts; 2. How many incomplete passes were poor passes as a total number and as a percentage of total pass attempts; 3. How many times was the QB hurried or harassed out of the total number of pass attempts and as a percentage of total pass attempts; 4. How may times on plays that were NOT obvious pass play situations did someone on the o-line change up their stance because the play was actually a pass, and as a result allow the D could read pass? (It happened way more than you think - you can't get away at the college level with cheating on your stance). I think these metrics will lead to a good understanding of our breakdown after our first quarter success. After the first quarter UNR started bringing more guys into the box to stop our run. In doing so they took away our short pass game as well. It forced Chase to throw longer passes, thereby allowing their pass rush more time to pressure Chase. UNR did an excellent job of staying disciplined in pass rush lanes and made it very difficult for Chase to get room to scramble. Our roll out passes gave him more time, but I'd like to see metrics on Chases effectiveness on roll out pass completions. Something tells me he's not Pat Mahomes trying to throw on the move.
