Why can't we run effective screen passes more often

Like the Saints. Yea we've had a few here and there but New Orleans runs em 5-6 times a game and very effectively. With Fournette and Guice I think we need more screens

Because we just got a QB that can complete a 7 yard pass.

We've definitely seen a few with Etling as the QB. That's been one of my favorite things about him.

To be fair the saint's screen game used to be one of the bests in the NFL bar none. PT was particularly good at them.
Also we've run a few this season already. They haven't quite worked yet.

You literally waited to the one year in recent memory that LSU is running successful screen plays to ask why they do not run effective screens.

They have looked better with DE at QB..... It's timing.....

The Saints suck just as much as LSU this year.
Edit: LSU would probably beat the Saints this year.

Screens are most effective when the defense is worried about the pass. When was the last time anyone worried about the pass
Also, it's effective against a blitz. People don't blitz us much because they've been getting pressure with four.

Our OL is more geared to road grading . Not the smaller more nimble linemen that u see on spread type teams. But I suspect we will continue to try.

I remember back when Jimbo was our OC and the bubble screen was our toss dive.
Good times.
