Hope you’re right. Our O-line isn’t exactly a strength.
Which IMO is why they haven't been pushing the ball downfield. It's hard to call plays that take time to develop when the OL isn't giving you the time to execute those plays. Loosening up their D by throwing short passes may help give you that time but you have to succeed at that first before you try to call plays that take more time to develop.
Yep, like I said. It’s been a mixture of the OL getting beat, Flacco missing the read or the OL actually giving him time, however Flacco preemptively throws early due not to trusting them to hold the blocks from previous plays.
I’ll just go back to what I really said and add to it. I was agreeing with you regarding the OL. I also was adding other parts to it.
There were plays open deep.
Going off memory
1. A deep post on the left breaking to the middle one on one with Bond. Flacco wanted to throw it, but Teller was being bull rushed and Flacco couldn’t step into the throw.
2. Bond on the left side off play action splitting the safeties. Flacco had time to throw and rushed through his reads from left to right.
3. Njoku running the left hash lots of room to run. He was one on one had the inside positioning on (I think it was a DB), Flacco glanced quickly then moved his eyes to the right.
Just to name a few. The issue is a combo of the OL issues and Flacco missing some reads regarding what I replied to
