"He can’t be more aggressive if we don’t allow him to be and call the stuff and they run the coverage that dictates that he throws it down the field. There’s too much put on whether he’s throwing the ball downfield or not. It’s the plays called, it’s the coverage they run. It’s all that together. … He’s got to do what the plays tell him to do and what the reads tell him to do within those plays. … He’ll throw it down the field. I’m not worried about that. Are there times that he could have taken a shot? There might have been a couple. But more it was what we were trying to do with the football and what we told him to do with the football against certain coverages."

Originally posted by CommissionerLee Evans said that the plays were called but for "whatever reason" (TRENT EDWARDS in his opinion) shots weren't taken.
yeah. That could mean the plays were called but Gaileys statement sounds like he's explaining WHY they weren't made. Not that they didn't call the plays.Last edited by justasportsfan; 09-15-2010, 02:35 PM.

Originally posted by CommissionerLee Evans would prefer we threw bombs every play because he can't run any routes besides hooks and streaks.
The thread title should be ,Gailey gives the reasons in Lee's "whatever reasons" .

At a 30% completion rate on those throws our offense would be more productive than it is now.

Originally posted by madmaxwellI'd be ok with that. Play to our strengths. Every ball to Evans should be 30+ downfield, let Roscoe and Nelson be the RAC guys.
