Rogers stat...

[CadaverDawg]

9 throws of 20+ in over 150 attempts is embarrassing and unacceptable.

[confucius say]

So on passes of 10 yards or more he is 25/38 (66%) for 496 yards (13 per attempt) with 4TD and 0 INT. Do it more

Exactly. It seems to be a confidence issue. He only goes deep when the game is on the line and we have no choice. He's got to do it more, or else we have to find someone that will.

Yeah somethings definitely different when he HAS to push the ball down the field. I appreciate him wanting to protect the ball but he's bogging us down. He's shown he can move this offense and move it quickly but he's got to quit being so cautious. Probably traumatized by watching Costello throw all those ints last year(I know I was).

Yeah me too, and I agree with you on all points

[ShotgunDawg]

We’ve definitely got to attack more

[MaroonFlounder]

It's frustrating.

Makai Polk has PROVEN he can win 50/50 balls. Throw them up and let him go get them.

You also might draw a pass interference penalty. There are positives to throwing it deep.

[Maverick91]

I could care less about the deep ball, just freaking change that 28.2 behind the line of scrimmage. That is atrocious!

Haha so true

[CadaverDawg]

We have as many yards on 7 completions of 20+ as we do 42 completions behind the LOS.

Ouch!

I cannot imagine how much different our season would look if that wasn't the case.

Ironically his only interception thus far was on a pass behind the LOS.

Will is like Matt Wyatt without the turnovers.

Matt Wyatt was a better QB.

[Turfdawg67]

Matt Wyatt was a better QB.

I'm sure I'll screw the ppl up, and I'm not gonna look it up (playing years)... but at a Bulldog Club meeting once, JWS said "If you put a bag over the heads of Wyatt, Manning & Couch, you couldn't tell them apart." But yet there was a huge difference between the three... huge.

[Todd4State]

Matt Wyatt was a better QB.

We'll revisit in two years.

[Todd4State]

It's insane. Everyone in the stands can see people open. Like wide ass open. And Will checks it down most of the time.

[Commercecomet24]

Even if you don't complete them you've got to chunk it deep at least a couple times a game to open things up. Heck even Brady's last year in New England when he didn't have any legitimate deep threat he was hampered big time because there's no way to loosen up a defense.

Yep, I think I remember seeing somewhere where Jackie said he would call a fly route once every 20+ plays just to keep the safeties from crashing. I think he even said he'd tell Madkin he didn't care if he overthrew it by 10 yards, that we were just doing it for show...if we caught it that was a bonus. At the very least, we need to do that, bc nobody respects our offense beyond 10-15 yards....nobody.

You absolutely have to. You have to at least make people think you can do it and looking at the stats Will has done pretty well at it. If the whole defense is playing within 10 yards of the LOS way to congested.
