I think Stills "heard footsteps" a little...
I still don’t get why we are throwing Stills a dig route. I think Butler or Parker lay out and make that catch or a higher chance than Stills. Stills also deaccelerates after his cut, which I have no idea why...
Only reasonable explanation there for why he would slow down is worried about taking hard contact. He’s not the kind to catch a ball on his hip and lay down either he wants to run thru which maybe influenced tannys throw also.
But either way nothing wrong with play call unless it’s personnel usage for the ask.
Keep in mind too that zone read with a wr screen built in the wr screen portion is called not to gain the sticks but to make them more manageable for the 3rd down. Same for the inside zone. They want to gain 6 yards there make it 3rd and 4 and entire play book is open including sticks concepts. Hell even 3rd and 6 takes the d out of sticks coverages on 3rd down.
Then don’t have Stills run that. We don’t need run through we need the catch and lay down. Throw could’ve been better but Stills needs to not be lazy either
Bet it’s attrition based with Parker and lack of time in the building with hunter.
So stills draws the straw.
Parker looked like he was half speed all game long.
Rather have Carroo then Stills. Feels like an Amendola route though.
Stills may be amendolas ask replacement in game. For that game. I would think ford would be this week.
