Sorry....let me rephrase that.
How long has it been since they've run a ****ing screen play that worked?

For plays like screens and swing passes to be truly effective, you have to be able to stretch the field vertically.
With Matt Cassel at QB, that is probably never gonna happen.
Against our passing game, all teams have to be prepared for is about 15 different types of plays and thats it and all of them can be defended within 15 yards of the LOS.
He absolutely murders this offense.
Sucks because a screen pass is intended to take the pressure off the oline so that the opposing team has to play on their heels, instead of coming right at you....but if you cant benefit from the longer developing pass plays that go for big yardage, screens are easy to see coming and easier to jump.
Just watch, as soon as we make a switch at QB, screens, draws swing passes and other parts of this offense will become effective again.
