Lack of a vertical pass game

Should be the focus of next practice ... whenever that is.

time/vision/confidence to throw it. DW could throw people open. TL seemed to know what was going to happen and put it out there. Cade seems to be hesitant or just not see it. The one where he went underneath and on the replay you could see the frustration of Stellato that the deep route was not thrown.

You can’t throw deep routes when the defensive line is in your face before you can set your feet.

That's certainly part of our issue.

I wouldn't trust any of our WR to go up and get a 50-50 ball

It starts with deep threats that we simply didn’t have this year. But we have a couple coming in to help with that.

that Cade’s first read is neither never open, or he simply won’t let it fly. Either way, we need to get better.

I love Cade and think he is getting better. But he is still not seeing open receivers, and when he does he throws late almost all the time. He is not anticipating where they are going to be ......i.e.,
not throwing them open. He still has to avoid the bad play, like the intentional grounding, when he could have just thrown the ball at Mafah's feet.

I am hoping all of these mistakes are helping him learn. Cudo's to some great throws down the stretch.

Vertical passing requires time which requires blocking. Hopefully the new OL coach will make a big difference as will a couple of talented WRs in the 2024 class

Lots of issues here, but CK is not the QB to get this team to the playoff.

Practice will not help, finding speed will.

I am sure it will be different when we add Turner, Wesco, and Moore.
