Olave slowed up before he got past his defender???

That's exactly why (not saying it was right) he got upset. He has one job which was to clear out that side of the field. He stopped his route almost immediately.

I'm with Carr on this one. He's been watching Olave half assing routes all game. I don't think Carr was throwing the ball at Olave as a read/alert, he was just throwing it away at the only receiver near the boundary. He was so P'Oed that he then sprinted over to take a chunk out of the dudes arse. You're blaming Carr for the cumulative disfunction(as if the O-Line hasn't gotten him killed for 7 games) and our OC(is calling sheet plays) while Olave has been jogging routes. Blame the arse who isn't even trying to do their job first then come back around to everyone else when the low hanging fruit is taken care of.

Olave did NOT run his route and that allowed the Defense to take Carr's primary look away.
Watch the defenders I circled.




This next frame is at the end of Carr's 3 step drop:

Here you can clearly see Olave has already begin to jog. Hill is almost 2 yards more downfield. The Nickleback and safety both read there is no deep threat and stop back pedaling to flatten out their technique.



On this next frame you can see the Left tackle has been beaten inside and is about to crush the QB, and the the second level defender under cuts Hill's route taking the throw away so Carr has to try it away to avoid a sack at the goal line.



Olave is clearly loafing, but I think the Defense anticipated this route, and even though Olave was not in the read progression, had he run his route here, I think Carr throws him a 50/50 ball instead of taking a sack.

Carr has plenty of fault in the offense underperforming, but that is absolutely no excuse for Olave consistently giving up on his routes and not selling his clear-outs.
