ETN Leaving Yards on the Field
|
Yes, the OLine is shite at blocking.
ETN too often runs to a hole and doesn't care about waiting for a play/hole to develop. It's poor running. The top RBs in the league have good hole vision. ETN does not.

It's hard to find yards when you have all your WRs are close to the O-Line, thus allowing the entire front of the defense to be within the box and then run it up the middle the vast majority of the time. ETN's run plays are designed for him to go straight up the middle between center and guard or between guard and tackle.. That's what they are calling him to do. And, when you have the entire WR and TE corps all lined up right next to the Line, there's really no where else to go but straight... You can't bounce it to the outside without risking losing yards. It's the play design that's killing the yardage. It's not the O-Line and it's absolutely not ETN. It's the play calling. We're basically running ETN into the ground. Poor guy isn't going to make it into a 2nd contract cuz all we do is throw him into the meat grinder on every one of his rushes.
Really? We're now resorting to [BLEEP] on probably one of the least concerning players we have on offense now?

Nothing surprises me at this point, but yeah, folks don't always know what they are looking at and think they need to blame every miscue on someone.

If ET is a problem, i wouldnt mind having those kinds of problems.
ET is not an issue.
I mean - there are definitely a couple plays each week where he might be better bouncing it outside and abandoning the play design, but he's clearly trying to hit the creases that the line is supposed to create. Can't really fault him this early in the year for not giving up on his line just yet.
I'd like to see more runs outside - stretches and ZBS stuff so the gaps are fluid for him to seek out.

Who had the Texans winning back to back or not thinking the Dolphins were going to win out? I could see a bunch of 8-9 and 9-8 teams pushing on tie breakers this year. Crazy

LOL guys.
I think we've complained about the O-Line, D-Line and Trevor enough. I know there are more glaring concerns. ETN takes way too much damage because of his running style. He hits the hole regardless of whether or not there is someone already in the hole. He's not patient in his running style. It doesn't mean I don't love what he gives the team.

He does take punishment and he could be getting more creative - but I really think he's just trying to stick to the primary play design and hoping this line finally starts creating the gaps they are supposed to be creating for him. Like he's trying not to give up too soon on his teammates before freelancing to create something out of nothing. This could very well be something his coaches are in his ear about - making him stay on script in a way. I think if the line doesn't start giving him more daylight to aim at, and/or the coaches don't start dialing up some different run blocking, he may very well begin looking for daylight outside of the called play design. Just my opinion on what we are seeing so far. (10-01-2023, 07:59 PM)NYC4jags Wrote:(10-01-2023, 06:36 PM)AnOldBrownie Wrote: LOL guys. Wow. What an absolutely stupid take!!! Play call is run up the middle. Play call calls for all WRs to be within the middle of the field. And Grampa Taylor thinks it's ETN's inability to find a lane??? I love ya, Gramps Taylor. But it's clear you've never had to run a dead play over and over again. Poor ETN is being driven through a meat grinder, and you guys are blaming ETN???? Ya'll are pathetic. Especially the Press Taylor family members. (10-01-2023, 07:59 PM)NYC4jags Wrote:(10-01-2023, 06:36 PM)AnOldBrownie Wrote: LOL guys. It's just so contradictory... It's just so pathetic. You have so many reciepts. You should probably start by returning your own hypocritical thoughts...
Maybe don't run ETN up the middle 66% of the time? Maybe don't run bubble screens when the defense is 9 in the box. Maybe stretch out the recievers like we did last year?
I don't know? Maybe do things that have the defense guessing? Or we could just love banging our heads against the wall, like we've done for the last 4 weeks. Press Taylor seems to love banging his head against the wall constantly. So I guess we all have to support that? SHEEEEESH We show less advertisements to registered users.

I haven't read any time you said ETN should run outside... But I'm sure at one point you wrote it... Spaghettis on the wall... I don't need to catch up to a guy that throws noodles on a wall to figure out what sticks. I'm sure everyone really thinks your super special. Excuse me for no longer thinking that. Honestly, I thought you were a good dude that loved football. But you're not. You're just a jerk that is trying to push your own agenda. You're not a good person, NEW YORK. I'm actually kinda sad that I tried to make friends with you last season.... You're just an angry old dude that doesn't want to really have a conversation. You just want to take down people. There was a guy last season that hated on Lawrence, and you just did everything you could to eviscerate him. Any post that kid made, you came in and just smoked him. And you did it over and over again. And guess what? He's not here anymore. Good Job, New York "4" Jags. Way to totally anahilate some poor dude that didn't agree with your opinion. How does it make you feel now that you have 1 less person to have a discussion with? You drove out a guy. That's not how communities work, New York "4" Jags. I never said the o-line was good. I never said that the execution wasn't a problem. I never said that Trevor Lawrence was the problem. For the last 2 weeks I've tried to show you why I think, while the players are also not doing good, that the coaching is a problem. And yet, all you do is focus on posts that are not 100% lockstep with you. You're a jerk, bro. You do everything you can to antagonize people that only slightly disagree with you. I'm sure you'll take this post and point out to how you totally owned another new guy in the forum. But really, all you have been doing for the last 2 weeks is just showing how unwilling you are to even acknowledge that maybe you are even slightly wrong. 13 points, man. 13. Against a trash Atlanta team. So you think our O-Line is the worst O-Line in the league??? So it's just the O-Line that is your woes? New York, 4 Jags? LOL. Honestly, you should re-evaluate how you discuss things with people on this forum. You're taking "receipts" here? This is a forum for die hard Jaguars fans. Just because fans freak out here doesn't mean it's your duty to destroy them and humilate them... If you want to humiliate and destroy fans, go and attack Texans fans. Go Attack Titans fans. Go attack clot fans. Why are you pushing out fans of your own damn forum? Are you stupid?

That's the best I can give you as a concession. You're being a douche bag with all the "New York" stuff after being educated about me being a Duval native - and you're harping on some weird "13 points" horse [BLEEP] - so I'll just give you some safe space to be angry and stupid without my interjections. Apparently you need this space to whine without my interaction - so have at it. I'll check in with you after next week's melt down. I'm sure you'll have some choice insight to all of our problems. |
