So this coaching requires a QB that can win it which is ironic since it lacks the courage to let him lead us to a win for four quarters.
I hate this about Pete and the game planning. Hate IT!!!!
So what you guys are saying is risk turning the ball over more vs. play more conservative and have a +15 turnover differential, which has been proven to contribute greatly to winning.
Because you can't have it both ways. You throw the ball around more, that means more risk and more turnovers.
This is the very heart of how Pete wants the offense to run. Ball control and take it away more than you give it up.
There is little to no difference between a 3 and out with a net 40 punt and an interception 40 yards down field.
We had (6) 3 and outs against the Girls. Some of those ARE turnovers when you consider our coverage unit. :177692:
Let that sink in......
This is a point that really hits home for risk management but might lead one down to a higher than expected risk appetite and drive people wild if it doesn't resonate with their own risk appetite.
For example, if we're on the 2nd series of a drive at our own 30 and it's 3rd and 2...
Failure in this case would lead to a 4th and 2 from our 30. Failure can be achieved (haha) through not gaining that two yards. In this case, what do you draw up to avoid failure and how much reward over the baseline of a first down do you shoot for?
If RW threw an 40 yard arm punt to a safety on 3rd and 2 from our own 30, we'd be livid right? But it's not much different than bumbling a screen pass for 3rd and 2, running for 1 yard, throwing an incomplete anywhere or getting sacked except for the ceiling on potential reward from it. The fail state on this series is not getting the first.
This is mostly academic since we're discussing what OCs and HCs usually do, what's heterodox and orthodox and we don't have the ability to implement our various conversations into football action but...
Avoiding turnovers is a good thing until it is counterproductive towards achieving first downs, in my estimation, but getting it 'just so' is something I'm not paid for, so I'm not going to sweat what I would do too much
