Kubiak's Conservative Playcalling (Jags game)

[Frank12]

But the play action off that set is brilliant. Darnold running to the wide side against the flow of the defence. Opens up the play action pass or the QB run.

So like it or not, we will keep running wide zone plays to the short side.

Not every play is run to succeed wildly. Some are set up plays to get to something else in the play book late in the game. Because you can't win the game in the firs quarter.

Never said it wasn't proactive to run the play it is none effective with Charbs, With Walker?.. sure!, At least Walker might make some yards in the play and make the defense believe it more in playaction...

if I see K9 lose 5 yards on that play again I will kick you in the face

Ok, Sure..........

We've lost two games both in the dying moments when we a) had the lead in the final 3 minutes and b) when we had a chance to come back and win, we turned the ball over on, get this, passing plays.

Our two losses are on the defense and the OL failing. Not the conservative play calling.

We also could’ve pushed the lead more instead of running into stacked boxes. It almost cost us against Arizona and Jacksonville.

I agree with you but I also think that forcing the run to the degree that we have will bite us. We shouldn’t do the Grubb special, but I also think we should have a little more faith in our signal caller

And I would say the balance of calls is just right. I would rather see better execution than move away from something we are struggling with. And I can't imagine execution improving if the team quits on the running game.

We lived in that alternate reality where we abandoned the run early and relied on the signal caller -- last year. It didn't get us into the playoffs.

Umm.. woolen is what cost us vs SF .. a simple batted ball would’ve been sufficient enough in the end… so no.. not two games
