It's Not All On The OL..Keep Telling You Guys


Quote:The problem is that Henne just isn't very good at getting rid of the ball quickly.  He hesitates and by then it's too late.  He seriously reminded me of Gabbert last week.

 

This article has some good information in it.  It's clearly not all on Henne but a QB that could get the ball out quicker would help a lot.

A brief part of the article:

 

A large portion of the OL issue comes with the quarterback play from Chad Henne. Henne’s average time to sack is 3.22 (close to average in the NFL). When he gets the ball out under 2.55 seconds, he’s completed 52% of his passes (Last in the NFL) while being sacked 3 times while throwing the 3rd most passes (53 dropbacks). After 2.55 seconds, Henne has completed 57.1%, while being sacked 10 times in 33 dropbacks.

 

Again it's not all Chad's fault but being the starting QB he faces a lot of criticism and he's struggled with getting the ball out quickly.  I don't know if he can't make the read or what but it's been bad.  Another reason why I think Blake would fare better, he showed the ability to do these things every time that he's stepped on the field thus far.
 

If Henne isn't very good at getting rid of the ball quicker then we have a bigger problem then we should have.

 

Henne getting rid of the ball quicker should be a big focus point of practices going forward. It really should have already been focused on really.

 

Design plays to make that happen and practice them over and over and over and over, until Henne and the rookie WRs have them down.

 

Of course you need to have several of them so the defense doesn't know what's coming.

 

Then run them as much as you can in the game, at least until the defense backs off some.

 

Of course you will need to mix in deep and intermediate passes along the way, just don't try it when a blitz is coming.

 

Make sure Henne knows that he CANNOT hesitate and that he must make the quick throw, and make sure the WR understands that it's coming to him and quickly.

 

If Henne is incapable of making those quick positive yards throws, then look down your bench and see if there might be a QB there who might be able to make those quick throws.

I survived the Gus Bradley Error.
