Williams is wide open with only one defender to juke from a 30 yard gain if only Fitz would look left instead of right. Might wanna check out which side Allen is coming from. The plays were there for Fitz to gash Kentucky for being so aggressive with Allen yet Fitz isn't even looking at that option.

I'm no QB coach so I don't know what is typical, but it always seems that Fitz is reading from the outside in, and we just don't have the talent at WR to look for those routes first. I'm not sure that Aries clears before Fitz is getting sacked, but a little chip from 81 before he goes out on his route gives the tackle time to recover standing flatfooted as the play goes off.

While none of the receivers look open with the exception of Williams, if 81 chips and the tackle regains position it also opens up a hole the size of a double wide for Fitz to take off right up the middle.

That is the play where I said “finally we put in a TE to help block on the left side!”

He then runs past Allen with not so much as a whiff and runs a drag route. Fitz was on his face before he turns around looking for the ball. Allen was past Eiland so fast he couldnt catch him to put both hands on Allen’s back.

The sad part is that Allen was doing that every play, but SchloMo thought it was a good idea to park the QB seven yards behind the line of scrimmage every play.

But it was an obvious passing situation since Kentucky loaded the box**

Has Williams done anything this season? He was the talk for the entire offseason and now that we are here...nada.

I’m not so sure Fitz wouldn’t be coached to eye the RB on that play. The corners give away a zone coverage look and show a two high look pre-snap. Unless Kentucky plays quarters or some type of soft cover 2, I’d think the rolling safety should be expected.

Against cover 3 then, the deep patterns/TE cross would carry the flat and deep defender enough to have Williams pretty open. And knowing how Allen has been whipping the LT, seems like that would be my second read.

But Im just a guy on a message board.

Don't be so hard on yourself; it did happen quite a few times just like that.

He had just as many against KY too, #41 for KY took him to the woodshed and wore him out. I'm not sure I've ever seen back to back games as bad as he has had. Although, I remember Martinas Rankin in his early years and he was awful too. Haven't heard if he ever got off injured list or not for the Texans.

This is probably the play that won Saquon Barkley the Heisman.

You can’t get more open than Aeris is here.
