I agree he need to get better at forcing the pitch key to commit, I think that's what you're saying. However, it's hard to tell from your screen cap what was going on, a vid would be better. Also, the pitch relationship is a little off, the Aback is too far from the qb, it may be too risky or TM doesn't feel comfortable making such a long pitch. When it doubt, they are told to keep and get what you can and live to play another down.View attachment 3445 r.c
The last thing i want is for TM qb to get better at cutting up field instead of pitching. Please run at the DE and then pitch!
Do not cut up field into 4 college football players!
All that said, this kind of thing is tons better in the second year. We return nearly the entire first string O and get another experienced OL back from injury. Reps and familiarity cures almost all ills with the option. Similarly, lack of it causes a lot of problems, too.
I noticed something else out of wack in that pic. The two downfield playside blockers are in horrible position to make key blocks. One guy is about to block a guy in the back and the other guy is ignoring the safety.
