Stopped watching out of frustration after the Niners went up 17-0. On to my question:Was SF playing prevent or some type of soft zone on Glennon's TD drives?I only ask because I'm curious if he was successful because they let him off the leash or because SF's defensive posture allowed him to succeed.......or could it have been a combination of both?
IIRC both were in two minute offense (Glennon calls plays as he see's them.)Not sure about coverage....
Notice how when Glennon is calling the plays the offense is successful? Notice how when it's Sullivan we aren't successful? Glennon is not the problem it's Sullivan.
I think Sullivan is simply god awful as a play caller. I don't think he has any kind of feel for what a defense is doing at any given moment.
truth is we finally played with urgency and things got done. After that we went back to the conservative approach and sat on the ball for the next 10 drives. This coach loves to keep games close even when he finds things that work.

You should have watched it, there is a stark contrast in Mike in two minute/hurry up compared to the other offense. His decision making and willingness to pull the trigger seem accelerated 10 fold.
It appeared the Niners sat back on that drive.

Urgency? This team has none until it is too late. It has been that way since Schit bag walked in the door. Sense of urgency? Schiano needs to get some urgency about having urgency. He is a complete failure at the pro level.
Vjax disagrees about them sitting back, since he had a niner on his hip when he caught the pass from Glennon in the end zone.

Uhhhh, I don't think that anyone plays a soft zone in the red zone, ever...do they? Glennon made a great throw. One throw doesn't make a career.

Matt Flynn says hi :)but in all seriousness, I'm so-so on Glennon, I want to see him with an OC that can makes calls. While nobody is saying Glennon is veteran Brady/Manning/Brees, for some reason i think there is a bigger issue with coaching and having 3rd and 4th string receivers (minus VJax)

It looked like Glennon was making a decision pre-snap and not necessarily going through his reads. Remember when Tebow would excel at the end of games when they went to hurry up? That's what this reminds me of...it isn't sustainable over a season or hell even a whole game. People are reaching with all this nonsense.

Glennon couldn't even complete a pass at the end of this game x_X

He completed the pass.... just not to the right guy
We moved down the field AND GOT TD's on both the hurry-up drives. At the end of the 3rd quarter, it's very unlikely the 49ers were "laying back". Doubt they were on the 1st drive either. When Glennon has enough time to get his pass off before the rush arrives, he is like a surgeon with a football. Getting the ball out QUICKLY is the most obvious way to beat the pass rush. Another less effective way is to keep extra blockers in who can actually block. Of course this means fewer receivers, and makes it easier for the D to cover them. Guess which method Sullivan most often chooses.... ::) ::) We need to take much greater advantage of WHAT GLENNON DOES BEST; more and more I'm getting disgusted with Sullivan!!
