Bucknell
Re: Bucknell
Only fair that I congratulate Lehigh for destroying Bucknell. Would love to see them carry that effort into the last two games.

Re: Bucknell
I don't think the coaching staff can handle using the RB or TE in this manor. It's the same thing year after year. Maybe this is a very long term plan to ensure the rest of the League is comfortable that we will not throw the the RB or TE so in some game in the future when we do it will be mind blowing. If I were Colgate I would not even bother to line anyone up across from the TE. Not sure why we have them.TMH wrote: ↑Sun Nov 04, 2018 4:45 pm I'm not sure I agree with the rationale for not using our TE or RB in the passing game. Last season, we had a superb offensive line. In 12 games, our TEs caught only 7 passes, avg about 18 y/c.
As far as the screen pass, some penetration is key to making it successful. With a bad offensive line, the Giants at least found a way to get the ball to Barkley in space through the passing game.
Part of it is certainly play calling but I also wonder if the QB gets through all his reads to find the TE and RB.
Re: Bucknell
we have used the TE and RB in the pass game in years past, just not much in the past 2 years, this year I think due to concern over OL
Re: Bucknell
Perhaps ror this season van. Last year we had an excellent OL. . Brisson is basically. running Folmar's spread O. It targets WRs almost exclusively.
Re: Bucknell
well to be fair, if my 3 WRs are Troy, Gatlin and Jorge, I am not throwing much to TEs, I think Brags did get some thrown his way last year
Re: Bucknell
Fun fact:
I don't know about targets but it's been a long time that either the RB or TE caught much more than 1 pass/game. However, in 2015, Paulsen and Bragalone were #1 and 2 in yards/catch. In 2017, only Christiano's limited action avg exceeded either Paulsen and Bragalone. Brags had 4 TDs from his 13 receptions.
When they choose to do it, it's usually successful and it really spreads the defense out for the WRs.
