More on Patricia's stellar play calling. The literally emphasizes what his QB and offense does worse and minimizes what they do best.
No wonder why they had to take that Friday off last week, to the players surprise, so the coaching staff could pull their heads out of their asses and figure out why they suck so much.
From the article:
In four games since their bye week, the Patriots have run 224 total offensive plays, per Sports Info Solutions. Of those, 159 (71 percent) have come out of the shotgun. The Patriots have called pass plays on 122 of those 159 shotgun snaps.
The results have been mixed.
Mac Jones is actually third in the NFL in completion percentage on those snaps out of the gun (70.0 percent). He's also ninth in yards per attempt (7.3) and 11th in rating (97.0). Pretty good.
But the Patriots have played it very safe on those shotgun passes, with an average target depth of just 5.8 yards beyond the line of scrimmage, which is shortest in the league. And the advanced numbers echo what Orlovsky believes, as the Patriots are just 22nd in the NFL in their percentage of pass plays from the gun that result in a positive expected points added (EPA) result (39.2 percent).
When under center the Patriots have remarkably similar results in terms of their league rankings, but the raw numbers are better. Just as they are out of shotgun, they're third in the NFL in completion percentage (74.1). They're also ninth in yards per attempt with a much-better-than-from-the-gun figure of 9.4. They're 15th in rating (99.8).
There's one massive difference: The advanced numbers say the Patriots are one of the best under-center passing teams in the league over the last month. They have a positive-EPA percentage (64.3) on under-center passes that places them second in the NFL and represents a major improvement over their shotgun work.
Yet the Patriots have had just 28 under-center dropbacks in the last four weeks. That's just 18.7 percent of their passes in that span and a whopping 94 (23.5 per game) fewer than their shotgun attempts.
Perry: Could this tweak produce very different results for Patriots offense?
Could the Patriots make a simple pre-snap tweak to make their offense much more effective? Our Phil Perry crunched some numbers and came away with some interesting conclusions.
