Message: [QUOTE="upperdeck, post: 5443656, member: 474"] Play design and QB trust are huge when you are not the elite WR who just beats coverages. Many of the biggest plays last year were Pena doing his job and McCord trusting he would be there and letting it rip to that spot. Thats hard to build, and not every QB/WR combo works. We ran many plays last year where we forced coverages into locations to create throwing windows. Then the QB trusted Pena or Meeks or OG would beat it to the spot they wanted to throw to. We find out this year how much the system works if the QB is just a little bit less talented. You can always force the 50/50 ball when the WR wins that matchup so often. When they don't then it becomes more on making correct decisions with the ball. We need the running game to be better, so we don't have to pass 40x a game when we don't want to. [/QUOTE]
