Quote:I know it might not be the same now, but i remember when Manning was in Indy they used to have the plays in and were out of the huddle with 20-24 seconds left on the play clock. I know a lot of that extra time was for Manning to play audible roulette and for line adjusts etc., but you always felt they were playing up tempo, even when not in the hurry up. I like the urgency argument. I would be happy if they did it once every quarter. You have your 2 2 minute drills and then pick a couple other drives. I think you have to play to your players strengths and its clear its one of Bortles, it 'should' be a no brainer.

Again your example was Peyton Manning, arguably to best and most cerebral quarterback to ever play. To do what he does takes the ability to be extremely precise on anticipation throws, have a full mastery of the offense you are running, be able to change protections on the fly and can diagnose a defense with little effort.


Blake is in his second year, first in a new offense and is not even sound in his mechanics. I'm not quite sure if Blake called a play everyone is on the same page. All hell might break out if he tried to audible and change a few routes and slide the protection lol.


Let's get the basics down before we try the advanced stuff.
