Nothing is subjective or fabricated when I state the fact the Saints passing game has been conservative through 2 games. The less than 100yds passing after 3 quarters in week 1 and less than 100yds total yesterday are simply undeniable.King Bootz wrote: ↑Mon Sep 20, 2021 9:49 amThat’s my point. People know the arguments they are making are biased, subjective, and fabricated in nature. Why get pissy when you get called out? Better yet, why pretend you’re making a competent argument. No one is. 1 person had the balls to admit they weren’t being objective and that her arguments lacked credibility or truth. 1. Everyone would better serve themselves to do the same. Quit acting as if you’re making knowledgeable points.Dread wrote: ↑Mon Sep 20, 2021 9:36 am
Jameis Winston was the Bucs #1 overall pick and franchise QB for 5 seasons. So fans of the Bucs aren't going to treat him like he's Jared Goff, Wentz or any other QB. Fans are emotionally invested in Jameis because the franchise was committed and all-in on him for 5 years.
It's naive to think Bucs fans will treat Jameis with the same indifference they would any other QB due to recent history.
As far as how the Saints can score 38 last week, that's easy. Run the ball incredibly well so your offense is in 2nd and short all game and have your defense create short fields for your offense.
In that game vs the Packers the Saints has two good offensive drives were most of the work was done rushing the ball or checking down (both drives were 15 plays iirc). The rest of the game was just the defense setting them up.
Yesterday the Saints offense kept falling behind the chains due to penalties and sacks. The Panthers loaded up on Kamara and run game and for the Saints lacked the will and/or firepower to make them pay with chunk plays in the passing game.
As far as the Packers v Saints game, not exactly how it played out. You’ve picked an arbitrary number that fit your argument as to what conservative or “check down” is. For that game I believe you said 20 yards. The Panthers game you said 10. Does it surprise you that no named WRs struggle to get open down the field? It’s a as if every attempt has been a check down. The Saints had quite a few passes past 20 yards last week. Yesterday as well.
How do explain losing by atleast 10pts for most of the game yet still not have 100yds passing for the game?
They were able to get away with that in week 1 so it' understandable not to risk throws downfield when you don't need to.
What about yesterday? Why such limited attempts or completions when the ball travels beyond 10yds in the air?
If you don't want to call that conservative play-calling, what do you call it?
