[QUOTE="Dress2Jacket, post: 907203, member: 5508"] Misdirection requires someone to hold a block for a second or two while the play develops. We tried (and couldn't execute) screens. We had one open for a long play, maybe a TD. Did we drop it or miss the throw - I don't remember. I don't know why we were mostly lining up Gibson under center. Truthfully, that's the go-to formation if you need to run the ball, so maybe we were trying to use play action. Unfortunately, it wasn't working. The other thing I saw with Gibson was a reluctance to pull the trigger. People were open, but maybe not "open enough" for him to cut it loose. I've seen the same thing with Sims, time and time again. There are guys who have learned to throw on anticipation, and there are guys who can't cut it loose until they see the WR running free. We seem to have the second type of guy. The first type is pretty rare, but our guys may be on the wrong side of the bell curve, even for the ones who need to watch a guy come open before releasing the ball. [/QUOTE]
