"Honestly I didn't even know it was fourth down."
I noticed he didn't play too. Since we aren't running in plays with the A back, we are good with using only 3? Or maybe coach wanted his most physical blockers against a better D?was taquon marshall injured?
CPJ actually referred to this as a switch route in one of the post game interviewsWe run the Post-Wheel combo pretty regularly. I don't think what Stewart does here looks like our typical wheel route. Stewart here drives up, out, and then cuts hard back upfield.
The Post-Wheel works so well because it looks identical to how we typical block the Triple when facing a cover two or man defense - the A-back or slot receiver opens up and bends outside to replace the WR, who is aiming at the safety. Same basic thing as when we do Switch combo.
FWIW, I think Lynch has great hands too. That FSU CB made a hell of a play getting his hand in there (and not unlike the play in the end zone made by Austin to knock out what I thought was a sure FSU TD reception and ended up a Golden INT).
You're probably right. The only time I saw him was during timeouts and post game celebration. He was dressed out.Taquon Marshall played at least one snap. I remember seeing both Marshals in the same camera shot at some point.
I was looking at our season stats earlier. Lynch is quietly becoming a very good weapon at the AB spot.
Leading receiver rusher and receiver at the AB spot. #4 rusher on the team, and #2 in receiving yards on the team.
That one catch he dropped...well, he didn't really drop, he just got blasted by the defender. He'll learn to anticipate those licks, and hold on a little tighter.
Regarding Lynch's "drop", @OldJacketFan is correct. Lynch is lucky he didn't have to go and pick up his teeth, he got popped pretty darn good.
Jimmy Robinson had a terrific exercise for that quick catch and tuck. I don't recall him losing the ball after it hit his hands.I think the hit on Lynch was a good play by the defense, but man, you have to hang on to that football. Lynch was lazy with his hands and didn't bring it in tightly and quickly enough. Call me what you will, but CL has to make that play. He will tell you the same thing. He didn't see the hit coming and he was really soft with his hands.

Lands Davis must block better
