    I had a previous comment that I had to delete after looking at your video closer. If you're going to say that it's poor communication and that it's bad coaching, I'm not necessarily going to argue but that sack is 100% on the offensive lineman. Are they never told that you communicate on a stunt and that the coaching of this is not hammered into them? I don't know for sure but I don't think you can claim that it wasn't with certainty, either. I don't think that miscommunication helps the offensive line's case for being any good at all, not even a little. In addition, you give Darnell Wright credit for throwing his guy and recognizing the freerunner but he whiffs by a yard on trying to block the free runner, which is absolutely and undeniably terrible. Take a look at it. Even if the communication was proper on the other side of the line Caleb would have gotten killed by that freerunner and it's inexcusable. That is just your first example that seems extremely biased to support a claim you've been making. I'm sorry, I really want the offensive line to be better and for your point to be correct and my first comment was with those rose colored glasses on. However, when you look at what happened it is the opposite of in support of your position that the offensive line is actually decent. The one caveat I'll give is that Coleman Shelton played fairly well this year, all things considered. I'm sorry, that is just what I see and I don't believe it's all that disputable.

    Adam great stuff as always. Honestly you are my new favorite Bears draft/offseason analyst. Just discovered you a month or so ago. While I 100% agree we should be trading down with our 1st pick, it takes two to tango. I’d love to see some mocks where we don’t have a trade partner or maybe have to accept 75 cents on the dollar to trade back.

    Great video!
    My take on first two sacks:
    Sack 1: Houston: 6:00 minute mark
    Play call was for a quick screen to DeAndre Carter #11 with DJ Moore in front of him.
    Play call was executed poorly (DJ Moore, Cole Kmet & Braxton Jones all failed blocking and protecting Caleb's blindside).
    DJ Moore failed to block and Carter failed his route.
    Braxton Jones tried to help out Teven, who didn't need it.
    Braxton Jones should have blocked #51 Will Anderson, a fierce pass rusher.
    Cole Kmet yelled "lookout" after failing to block Will Anderson.
    Swift was clueless on play and didn't help at all. A power back could have blocked someone.
    I place blame on Braxton Jones and Cole Kmet for the sack, but OC Waldron shares responsibility. It was a poor scheme, wrong players on field to execute the call and everyone was clueless about protecting Caleb from Will Anderson. We had three NFL pro's "Braxton, Cole and Swift" that should have been on high alert to protect Caleb in ONLY his second game.
    Sack 2: Houston around 8:00 minute:
    It was a TE screen to Cole Kmet.
    #55 Danielle Hunter brilliantly held Cole preventing him from releasing.
    Caleb has no one to throw too, so he ducked and run.
    PS: Screens were run because da Bears could NOT run the ball, nor pass protect. If Bears could run the ball with a power running back, Caleb could breathe. Houston was a real test for our "starting line", and the Bears failed. Houston had 7 sacks and only gave up 71 rushing yards, plus generated lots of pressure on Caleb from Will Anderson, Danielle Hunter, blitzes and others. A REAL NFL GM knows it, sees it and corrects it.

    Very interesting production here. You did a lot of work. Tom Brady made some very interesting comments on these lines about quarterbacks in general and Caleb in particular. He said that a quarterback needs the mentality that he is not taking a sack period. You will of course, but it should rarely be his fault. He cannot allow those negative plays.

    @Adam great video, my own take...(1) The HC as he hired everyone and did not hire good coaching staff.... (2) The OC as he was not very good and ... and called very very bad formations and plays...3) This is a 50-50 tie, no real standouts other then Wright, and we were starting for multiple games your 6th,7th, 8th, 9th, and10th best o lineman on the team. An lastly tho as bad as the Line itself Caleb held the ball to long at times and did not throw the ball away as a Good Vet would of. Would love to see you do this on all aspects from the RB to WR to D line, LB' and Db's groups as well.

  • @REGENETARIANISM
    @REGENETARIANISM 21 час назад +6

    I'm of the opinion that at least 33% to 40% of the sacks are on Caleb due to his poor pre-reads, and slow post snap reads through progressions incl. not seeing wide open receivers. In the games, where Caleb does well, he got rid of the ball quickly. In the games Caleb did poorly, he was playing a lot of hero ball holding onto the ball way too long. He had this problem at USC as well.
    Though, unlike Fields, who had this same affliction, Caleb seems to have the ability to get rid of the ball more quickly. So, hopefully after he studies more film and better understands what opposing defenses can throw at him, he'll be better at recognizing defenses pre-snap and finding receivers post snap.
    And, yeah, the offensive line coach sucks. The Bears early in the season, esp with Nate Davis, the Bears were super susceptible to stunts.

    • @Roger-hs1dl
      @Roger-hs1dl 19 часов назад +2

      That's insanity! 20%, and thats a staggering percentage. If it's 40% like you're suggesting, then he's a certified bust and shouldn't be in the NFL.
      Caleb just holds the ball too long relative to how long this poor Oline can hold up. I watch a lot of football, and even the mid teams QB oftentimes have clean pockets and stand in the pocket for seconds. Caleb rarely has time to set up.

Geno smith has abt an 56% sack percentage which is worst in the league. Caleb has flaws, but doesn't mean hes a bust hes played one season in the nfl.

    After watching the games this year... I thought Caleb Williams or play calling was at fault for 30% of the 70 sacks.
    I would like to see less penalties out of the O-line as well.
    Did Fields have the same issues last year? The reasoning to see if Jenkins, Jones and Wright made any changes under Chris Morgan from year to year.
    I see two rookie QB's playing better than Williams this last year in Nix and Daniels but their coaching was significantly better.

    60% Caleb holding the ball too long, 40% bad line play. Caleb has also bailed the line out a lot too with escaping almost immediate pressure. This is totally fixable. Our tackles are not terrible, but the IOL needs some tweaks, Jones is a replaceable player at LT, better suited to be a swing guy.
