Yall are talking two different things, lol. Is there even an actual disagreement here?
NCCommand has tried to slip in "pass-centric" when the discussion is about aggressiveness. He is doing it because it's convenient to his lingering attraction to Jimmy. And I don't blame him, Jimmy is objectively hot.
I could care less about Jimmy. You're the one still in his thread daily.
The real issue is you thought our whole offense would change under a new QB (whom Kyle trusted) to a more pass centric offense.
Nope. Now you know.
It's the exact same offense, offensive game plan, same target areas, same run/pass ratio, same calculated 2-3 shots per game, etc.
The real difference is Brock himself. Not the weekly game plans. Not the offense.
As to "aggressive?" Again, that's Brock. Not Kyle.
No I literally did not believe the offense would become more pass centric. Remember, I was sure by this time Trey Lance would be our starter (who saw Purdy coming?), and that offense would be RUN CENTRIC with lots of QB power, and a DEEP passing game. An
aggressive, deep passing game, which would be set up by a brutal run game consisting of outside and inside zone, end arounds, and a good dose of QB power, inverted veers, and QB draws. If anything, I thought there'd be MORE runs, but with a QB who not only was more aggressive than Jimmy, but who would have even larger windows in the intermediate and downfield range because of the more dynamic run game.
And for the record, if the scheme didn't change, that actually proves MY point, that the QB was PASSING UP DOWN THE FIELD THROWS that were ALWAYS in the offense. Matt Ryan didn't pass them up. Jimmy did. Brock didn't.
EDIT: for the record I consistently pointed this out when Jimmy was the QB, how deep and intermediate routes were ALWAYS there, and Jimmy was turning them down. This was when the Jimmysexuals claimed Kyle WANTED Jimmy to turn down those deeper throws.
