thshadow Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Thanks for this!!! It was a great read... Even though it was a bit like rubbing salt in the wound... One thing that was noticeable - it seemed like Petty had some actual pockets with more than a second or two to throw. If one of the points of red-shirting Hack was to help get him less shell-shocked - I don't think this preseason is helping... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doggin94it Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 On that first play, Shell actually does fine; the play is designed to go between the OG/C or, if necessary, between the OG/RT, and Shell (on the combo block with Tomlinson) successfully walls his man to the outside; yes, the DE gets upfield a bit, but in that play design, that should be fine. Unless, of course, Winters gets driven 4 yards into the backfield, blowing up both of those potential rushing lanes, which is exactly what happened, and (along with Harrison's essentially 1-touch block on the NT, which killed any chance of an inside move) forced Powell to try to swing wide around the corner to try to salvage something. If Winters makes an even halfway competent block, nobody is complaining about Shell's job on that play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doggin94it Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 On the Peake slant (off his hands, almost picked), the issue wasn't the decision (he was covered well, but Hack had a window) but the execution. That ball needs to be thrown into Peake's body, where he can use his position & size to wall off the DB. Instead, hack throws high & behind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But still made better decisions overall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peake also should be able to haul in a ball that hits him right in the hands. I would rather have had wait a second and dump it off the Powell in this play who seemed like he was going to be more open then Peake. Peake also runs a terrible route, no explosion off outside plant foot and never uses big frame to his advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkajet01 Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Judging from team reps yesterday with the qb's petty will be 3rd string although he has outplayed hackenbergSent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DetroitRed Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Holy Crap! Hack could have been decapitated on that first sack. He seemed to be rushing every throw after that hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seemed to be rushing every throw after that hit. That thing was overall horrible. The rush came right to his face, yet Hackenberg has no idea it is coming? Powell does not pick up the rush, but doesn't turn his head until the ball already bounced on the turf 5 times? I didn't think Hackenberg looked shellshocked, just bad. The only time he showed anything was on the scramble and the throw immediately following. Unfortunately, it did not lead to anything sustained at all. I didn't watch the 2nd half yet, so I can't make fun of Petty. yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
