Why are the PeteHawks so bad at screens?

The only thing I can come up with is... maybe they just don't practice them enough?

It’s the blocking, and the timing, always S-L-O-W so the opposition can react.

With John L. Williams, Chuck Knox ran great screen plays. It's been a long time since we've seen consistently well-executed screens to a running back.

Waldron needs to s-can that screen game. It's consistently awful.

Furthermore, why are they so bad at DEFENDING screens??

Every offense needs to be able to run screens against an overly aggessive passrush

I originally meant executing screens on O but it's equally valid on D.

Although they did make a nice stuff in this game
