Burrow discussing his preference for 5-Wide, and 5 in Pass Protection.

quote:

"It means the world. I've always advocated for 5 receivers, 5 guys in pass protection."

"It pulls one more linebacker out of the middle. Opens those holes up..."

"It makes linebackers not be able to Green Dog blitz."*

"All the confidence in the world in those guys"
[O-Line to pass protect with 5 against Auburn, Derrick Brown ]

It really seems lately that you are setting yourself up for some disappointment from Burrow, by preemptively blaming the coaching staff.

Seems the real LSU fans have more confidence in Burrow than his stalker guy does.

I had a dream last night where Brady sent a play down to the LSU offense and they lined up five wide against the bama D. Chase and CEH ran the same rub route they ran against Florida for another touchdown but this time along the bama sideline. They play was called back after Saban ranting and raving along the sideline for an illegal pick.

The refs walked off the penalty then Brady sent the play down to the LSU offense and they ran the same play on the opposite side for a 60 yard + touchdown. Saban was ranting and raving again but the refs didn't drop the flag. And Danialson was on TV saying if you are going to call a pick play on the first play you have to call it on the second play. But I don't believe any of the plays were pick plays. Then the SEC official talks to Danialson and tries to explain how the two plays were different to no avail.

Then I woke up.

No that would be you. Your 15 page melt from yesterday is more than enough proof.


But I give you credit for at least moving on from that.

That rub route you're referring to Das perfectly executed and definitely not a penalty. There have been plenty of those kinds of plays that teams including us have gotten away with what absolutely should be flagged, but that was not one of them.

I hope you are not advocating to run 5 wide all the time. Plays are set up by offensive play calling sequences to get the defense guessing.

Offense that beat great defenses beat them with better play calling and taking what the defense gives them. Running into the teeth of a strong defense (like Auburn) is a sure way to fail. Sometimes going 5 wide is running into the teeth of a defense.

I trust that Brady has given Burrow the information that Burrow needs to check out of plays to take what the defense are giving him. That seems to be the formula that is working. For example, if you see CEH flank out and the LB follows him then you know the defense is in man on man and they are going to likely stick with the play. If the safety switches to CEH you'll then see CEH come back to into the backfield with Burrow. The great thing about his offense (other than execution) has been the ability of Burrow, CEH and the WRs to read defense and make pre-snap adjustments.

What is the deal with your stalker level obsession with Burrow. It’s disturbing

What a bizarre statement. I'm not sure where you got that from the OP.

I agree. It was perfectly executed. The Florida defenders were not touched at all.

Moving on?

Burrow is confirming that he does NOT want or need the Max Protect that "Tight" formations easily provide.

For a talented accurate QB, Max-Protect is a major obstacle to a highly effective passing game... sorta like putting training wheels on a professional racing bicycle... thanks, but no thanks.

Well you didn’t mention anything about it in this thread so I wanted to give you the benefit of the doubt.

If you want to kick and scream because the play calls take away from Burrow’s stats, knock yourself out.

Anyway, that was that thread so yes, moving on.

The tight formation you speak off also allows us to get receivers in matchups that greatly favor us. It also guarantees man coverage on whoever lines up opposite of the bunch. It’s become a lot like basketball in the sense that we are looking to exploit certain defenders who we think are not capable of guarding our guys. That and other formations allow us to spot those matchups presnap .

Get ready, he’s going to tell you how wrong you are now.

I say he but I’m really starting to think it’s a she.

Agreed, if anything they slightly ran into each other taking them out of stride and position. That was all it took for Chase to run free. It was perfectly executed by LSU.
