Uh...what?
I said I'd have liked to have seen Smith try to make a throw here.
But just like I said in the Bray post - any time a QB is trying to throw off his back leg, it's an extremely difficult throw and the decision-making has to be judged accordingly.
And as to the respective LBs - at the moment McCluster made his cut (which was the discussion I was having with the grownup in the room), 50 was driving forward and in front of the route of the crossing WR; he was two strides to impact. Shit, he's looking
right at McCluster as McCluster starts his break. If the LB drives on the ball, he probably bats it away. If he drives on McCluster, he absolutely destroys him. Do you deny for a second that 50 would've absolutely butt-****ed McCluster there had McCluster been the #1 option and the ball released at the top of the drop?
In the Bray clip, the LBs momentum had taken him the other direction because he followed the first guy out of the backfield, IIRC. He was a full 5 yards behind Draughn and even with him, not 1 yard behind him and
facing him.
The two aren't even remotely comparable situations and your point is ancillary at best.
As to credibility - sweetheart, you're allowing Goatse to be your pied piper. I'll worry about your barometer of my credibility when you follow someone that actually has some.
