No screen passes during preseason...Nagy?
I'm sure I'm not the only one to notice..but KC didn't run many dump off screens. I'm not certain if it was intentional or an evolution..due to Schwarz and Nagy coming into the fold...but Smith was, repeatedly, throwing longer passes than the last 3 years.
Is this the year Smith finally comes out of his conservative shell? Was this a bi-product of not leaning on Charles as the central focus of the offense? Last edited by BlackOp; 08-28-2016 at 10:55 PM.. |

I think Reid just replaces West with Charles..and keeps using Ware like last year. Last edited by BlackOp; 08-28-2016 at 11:14 PM.. |

I think it's possible they are pushing Smith to work on downfield passing. They claimed that was a focus last preseason but it never translated to games. Screens lose their effectiveness when a D stacks the box and doesn't respect the passing attack. A good offense needs to be able to draw the D in when they are getting run on, and spread them out when passed on. It's why so many people have been critical of Smith. It's not just a desire for bombs and fantasy stats... it actually adds more dimensions that defenses have to account for.

I'm willing to bet there is a bubble screen in the first drive of the season opener....

Why put the blocking schemes on film even if it is generic? Agreed. We don't need to practice screens.

Wait until Charles gets back. Reid is going to abuse the hell out of those 3 TE sets.

Harris and Travis are behemoths out there and both can run faster than most linebackers in the league. |

Reid has always loved the screen game... with Duce Staley, Westbrook, McCoy, and now Charles. I'm sure we'll see it once the games count.
