They are getting knocked down because they are quick 3 step drops that put him.closer to the line of scrimmage. All opposing defenses know that we throw 80% short and they know they cannot get there with the pass rush. So the best way to defend this is to get their hands up.


That and the line on short routes should be cutting the D line.

Didn't Eric Reid say in the fall that the db's are frustrated because Mett put the ball only where the receiver can catch it. What has happened from then to now?

it's hard for a db to get it at the WR's knees.
