I do not understand why a team that employs Jamaal Charles and struggles with the blitz is so adverse to running the occasional screen pass.
We play Jones because he's better in pass pro, I get that. But let's face it, he's built like a brick shithouse and Jamaal....isn't. Charles is simply never going to be phenominal and picking up the blitz. He is, however, unreal in space.
So instead of hammering that square peg into that round hole, why not slow down blitzes using Charles strength rather than watching his weakness be abused (or keep him off the field entirely). If you flare him out into the pattern or run more screen plays to him, teams are not going to be able to blitz without keying on him and they won't be nearly as effective.
Yet we just don't utilize him in the screen game that often. It doesn't make sense to me at all.
