[QUOTE="GTJason, post: 12282, member: 94"] Ken at the AJC has a really good analysis of our pass protection problems [url]http://www.ajc.com/weblogs/georgia-tech/2013/oct/17/lee-learning-play-within-system/[/url] He needs to get a 6th sense of where his linemen are and use them as a sort of moving pick to find space in the pocket. Receivers run routes that favor an angle from the pocket, not 10 yards deep, and not rolling out of it (unless the play is designed for it of course.) It's a comfort issue with the players and it doesn't hurt that our competition has gotten a little stiffer - 2 losses to top 20 opponents. New plays aren't going to increase that comfort level. They need to run the same plays most games so when Lee is analyzing film he can see where the pocket opens up and take advantage of it. The kid is clearly a little rattled. Think about it this way: the goal for a defense when playing any mobile QB is to force him to stay in the pocket until the pocket gets so small you can sack him. Flushing him out of the pocket rarely ends well for the defense, think Vick in his falcons heyday. So my question is why are we getting killed when our mobile QBs get flushed from the pocket even JT? Their comfort in the backfield is bad, both because of poor O-line play and lack of knowing where to be.
