But, considering that we openly admitted to trying to get the ball to McCluster a certain number of times per game, I find it difficult to believe that a majority of the "screen passes" are not by design.
When one takes into account the level of Play Cassel was at last season, and compares it to the type of play he managed early this year, I don't get how any conclusion can be arrived at that doesn't focus on the coaching changes.
Did the QB change, or did the offensive game-planning change?
Well, the QB is the same. But the game-planning is being done by someone different.
How does anybody come to the conclusion that the QB is the reason the offense looks so much different?
And, how do you expect the execution of the blocking to better, when all other execution of blocking had been completely terrible?
By the way, I am as thrilled as anyone could possibly be to see the blocking come together last week, and noticed Cassel's inability to be comfortable with the protection.
I think that will come with time, so long as the blocking can continue to provide a real pocket.
