We are in 2 TE. the play call ends up being deep slant. tommy ends up throwing it away cause its not there.. but with the coverage they were running its not a play that works most of the time. that was the time to tale the shot.. no safety is going to help on the wide side and we had 2 TEs

but again what are the TE and Adams doing.. right on the edge of getting a penalty for blocking down field. and both tackles whiffs blocks again. if the tackles make any kind of block Tommy has no checkdown available so what kind of call is this?

an example of what Phat says in another thread

7 on 3 blocking. Tommy has all day.. from here he rolls right and throws it away? strange.

its too bad the ACC condensed version removes so many plays.. there is one play in the first I really wanted to review.

Check down was supposed to be Neal but he’s running blocks. This is supposed to
be a chip block and then run the route. However, they guy was coming to strong so he had to stay in to protect Devito
 
and this play has to work. no safety we get outside and let the NT track it down.. for no gain.

this is the play i really want back. 3rd and 8 in the first. tons of time, riley in the slot runs a sninny post type route.. Either throw it deep to jackson who is running past the safety or come back to Riley who is open with no safety and tons or room to lead the throw. its a terrible job of coverage by NC state just a wad of useless guys at the 40 and we end up again running to the right and throwing it away.. even the dump down to the RB is going to be hard to cover if he leaks left but he doesnt release either.

Don't worry, he threw that one 20 yards out of bounds with absolutely no pressure. A good pass to Riley or Jackson is a TD there. Both were blowing by the safeties.
 
That's a really weird one because one of the early "criticisms" of Tommy was he likes to throw it deep too much. I really think he doesn't trust the OL at all so he's always worried about that instead of going through his reads. Not sure how that gets fixed.
 
So many open guys. DeVito is a big issue. The question is can he be fixed and how? If the answer is no, then we better be looking hard for a transfer.

Even if the answer is yes, we still need to bring in one or two QB recruits, at least. Devito only has two years left after this. QB recruiting has been fairly abysmal.

The WR at the top is open right now at the line to make. 8 yard gain minimum?

He would not have made the first down here and it's 3rd and 8 but why isn't he running and at least trying? Minimum he runs to the 30 ? maybe? What's to say something doesn't break open there.

I dont think he can be fixed unless HE changes. He isn't seeing the field and he simply panics. Maybe more game time.. maybe maturity.. maybe he doesn't have it..I hate to be a jerk but what Im seeing is indicative of low football IQ. either way we are fooked as there are no other options
 
Right now TD reminds me of the NFL David Carr. Been hit so much that it has broken his awareness.

Yeah, that ball should have already been on its way to hit the receiver on his break

Yep. He does have an LB between him and WR, but the LB is close to the line of scrimmage. Needs to get it over the LB...then it's an easy completion.
