Sweet Sassy Molassy Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 That we actually ran a successful pump and go to Santana Moss? Moss faked a screen Barber bit, Moss burned him for what could have been a 15 yard gain, or more. Unfortunately, Brunell put too much touch on the pass and it went out of bounds. I think that we gave the Seahawks something else to look at and I see this play opening up the Screen pass much more. If DB's play tight we fake screen and beat them for a long gain, if DBs play loose then we run Screen and Moss can possibly take it for a long gain. Hopefully we work more on the timing and accuracy of this play, and we'll have something scary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goaldeje Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 I was going to post on this. Good call. That's exactly what happened, and it worked brilliantly in theory. I would like to see something similar against SEA. Just to loosen them up some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOVA2Tampa Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 Yup...just like that early pass from Portis to Moss...even if you don't complete it, it still makes your opponent stop and think... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceman Spiff Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 I noticed this too and there was no reason we shouldn't have gone back to it. IMO, if Moss shows he can burn Barber with a move like that, you try it again later on and see if you can get it to work. Anyway, I think we can make it work against Seattle.

Woofer Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 Something is obviously wrong with Brunell. It may be his knee, or it may be something else. But his accuracy has been off since the Giants game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
betsy thurman Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 i would love to see them run some more of these plays and more screens, draws --i know we could have some success there and open the field --- we have got to get away from run, run, pass --- Moss is such a target and with great speed we HAVE to get him in the game -- how about the middle of the field? we haven't used it much since the days of Warren and Didier -- we definately saw it exploited yesterday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWB Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 We just needed more rhythm and Gibbs broke out the prevent offense a little early. I think we will be fine next saturday. I'm not really worried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
