Im not defending the OP idea, but who has ever had a Taysom Hill?
You do realize that it's not all the QB that determines RZ efficiency. It's execution by the OL, WR's and RB's , play calling. . For instance, 1st and goal from the 5, 3 running plays are called and you wind up at the 1 if you kick the FG how is that the QB's fault? . Is it the OL's fault? The RB's fault ? Or maybe playcalling?
i'm all for anything that results in 6, but won't defenses adjust in the playoffs in the redzone and learn to stop the Taysom/AK approach that i think is more one-dimensional (for the most part) than if Carr is in there? maybe the Taysom / AK is more versatile than i realize.
Yea I heard that too, that was interesting and it makes sense. Prior to carr getting here we didn’t have redzone issues. This can work in a couple ways. It’ll make Carr want to throw dimes so he doesn’t have to give up the rock in the redzone. It’s also humbling to Carr, in a good way, and it spreads out the responsibility of scoring in the redzone on the entire offense and not just a Qb. It also tells me that they want to win in any way they can, and won’t let a Qb ego ruin things. Not saying Carr has a negative ego, but most QBs would feel humbled losing the keys. I don’t know if there’s any elite QBs that would willfully give up the rock in the redzone.

I think the idea is that while we might run the ball 80% of the time, that 20% chance of a pass keeps them at least a little honest. I confess though that I haven’t seen much of us using Taysom’s arm in the red zone and I’m not sure I’d want him to, outside of simple bootleg concepts. Turning the ball over gets a lot easier in a short field situation.

I’ve been calling for that for the past 3 games, I’m just glad they are doing it more.
