re: Hit the panic button on Mettenberger

Explain why he is staring down the receiver? Is it because we are running a one route play near the end zone? I have seen enough so far with this offense to say that Mett is unprepared period. This offense has gone backwards for whatever reason. Just check out the stats. We have played some very weak teams so far and I have struggled passing the ball efficiently. All we run is quick slants, hitches, short outs, or rails down the sideline. All these passes are hard to get picked. Why does the staff not have confidence in him throwing anything else? We don't even run middle screens with this offense. His awareness in the pocket concerns me. Just watch the game, he is unaware of pressure on the edges and telegraphs his throws. I ain't down on Mett, I am on the coaches responsible for having him ready to play.
