Using #NextGenStats via the #nflverse, here's a look at running backs and their average time to the line of scrimmage in week 1.

On those inside run plays, AG did look decisive hitting holes, getting to the second level quickly.

inside run game was a pleasant surprise.

-------------

stat - I want to see the rank of QBs who got the ball out the quickest last week. I imagine our opponents QB will rank pretty high each week.

Minus the fumbles, Gibson looked great Sunday. Hopefully the fumbles were just a 1 game fluke. Look forward to seeing against NYG.

Yeah, you can find away to give Patterson 5-10 carries a game. I want to see him too.

Gibson made me a believer Sunday. Fumble was tough and a runner is getting hit so they dont have too much say so .. but maybe try to keep your feet on the ground in the shadow of your own endzone. Stay low. Keep your limbs tucked in as much as possible. Maybe even do that double arm cross thing Portis used to do in those situations. Probably limits a runners agility but increases ball security.

That is on Del Rio for (1) having Bostic and Holcomb in there on a guaranteed passing play. We have a bunch of hybrid safety guys for this very play. (2) asking your piss poor in coverage LB to make a correct read and then be able to cover a huge area of turf against the likes of Keenan Allen.

That D call is mind blowing.

On top of everyone playing way to far back from the sticks.

Horrible play call, horrible execution by all.

Good take, thanks !

Re did the gif so you also can see endzone view:

I would love to know what Bostic was thinking (actually I probably wouldn't)

And why McCain backed up so much.

Bostic just has awful vision, awareness, and feel from where he is on the field.
Sometimes he just stares at QB eyes and ends up being dragged way out of his zone without looking at the wide open guys in his zone... and sometimes he just stares at one guy and follows him with no awareness of where other guys could be...

#55 isn't much better. CH may be fast but he can not cover at all. I can't imagine what Brady, Mahomes Dak and so on are going to do to this defense.

Holcomb is not a great covering LB, but Bostic just has zero clue what the F he's doing out there. Holcomb is good against the run and average in coverage, Bostic is average against the run and embarrassing in coverage.
