I hope Pascal can get better with routes and getting open. He has good hands, he plays hard, he's physical and willing to block downfield, all good attributes, but he just doesn't get open much. The TD vs Atlanta got him open schematically with trickery, he didn't beat his guy. I rarely see him beat his guy, but I also don't watch the all-22.
I'm starting to worry that, as omaha said, Brissett has slow timing. He doesn't anticipate where the open guy will be, he waits to see the wide open guy and when that isn't there, he checks it down.
There's a lot of comments on not opening up the passing game and the coaches not trusting him. I think neither of those are true, I think they are calling plenty of deep passing plays, but JB seems unwilling to make the throw and takes the check down for 7 yards.
