Film Review: Shea Patterson and What It Would Mean for Michigan

I answered a few questions about my opinion of Shea Patterson's situation. I did something similar to Jake Rudak when he moved from Iowa to Michigan, so I thought about looking at what he would bring to the table. It is necessary not only to look at the main points, but also to find out weaknesses and poor performance.

Let's be clear about one thing, the first reason, first and foremost, is why Michigan tries to woo Patterson because he's so talented. His game isn't perfect, but in my opinion, his behavior has less to do with the current roster and the staff's trust in this roster, and more to do with what Patterson can offer. Let's take a look I hope not in vain.

Patterson is well aware of the concepts he deals with. He understands how the concept should drive protection and where to look to open the lid.

Here, to protect your wheelchair from fake photography, use your eyes to maintain inner safety, then throw the card onto the wheels while the handle breaks, but before the bouncer goes through the tip:

Here he does a quick drop from CB and shows a quick read and drop the ball to send the ball to the catcher. When the first reading is clear, he quickly runs away and gets the ball out in time:

Patterson can push the ball into the court and put the ball well into the receiving position (2 games):

He can also line the ball up to provide tighter coverage below (2 games):

And I like this line break against casing 2:

It may change the rhythm and trajectory of its strokes. Even if she prefers the chain on him, she can leave it.

Here, in PA, he throws the ball into the layer above the LB layer and releases it safely. This angle and this throw is incredibly heavy and makes it easy.

Patterson isn't a real double threat to QB, but he's a good QB athlete, and he proves he's not a weak sprinter, and has enough awareness to make a guy usually lose. He can walk away from most DLs and even LBs once he can break his pocket. This allows him to expand games and sometimes take yards on the advanced courses.

That's the expected move, but he feels LB's pressure on the edge, immediately sees the pucker in the DL and hits it fast. He is able to escape the LB and walk a good distance of metres:

This is another game where the game is completely covered, but he can play because he is a good athlete and hard to find to defend:

Here he expands the room enough because he knows the design work. This extra time allows him to throw a good pass on the road.

Patterson demonstrates excellent mechanics while driving. Ole Miss set Patterson's tone because he throws a very powerful and accurate ball when moving left or right. His whereabouts limited the number of testimonies he had to give, and generally made it easier to start those testimonies.

There he is, reproduces the movement down the center and turns left. Watch how he puts his left shoulder on the field, feet together and under, and he has his hand to put the ball in a line 30 feet away. This is an accurate reading and gives the catcher the opportunity to grab the bounty square and then win it because the ball is on time and at a good pace:

Perhaps what Patterson is best known for is his ability to "play". While flipping usually makes the initial reading easier, it intensifies the field, and if the ball doesn't get out quickly, it leaves you with a few options. But just like Johnny Football, where most of Patterson's game comes from, it's his ability to win an early round, extend the game, and then use his sports to give receivers a chance to spot you. And he does a great job of keeping his eyes open the whole time he's struggling.

This is a major point I've seen online mostly from Michigan fans, but it's far from a single moment. The first reading is a bit open, and by the third and third you might be able to include this lineup, but for the most part, CB has outside influence and is about to explode into the cast, so this isn't the right shot you want to take..do it. Patterson continues the game, wins the run, lays on the other side of the field and finds an open receiver that slipped out of his hiding place. Not quite how you draw it, but it's a good option to have:

Weak points

Patterson is not always right. It's the bottom of the QB and typically uses upper body torque to put the ball in a straight line. And again he doesn't like to throw under pressure, so rush in here; Basically, speed up and look down or smash the ball to avoid collision. This can be seen when the ball moves slightly away from her, and she usually skips to the side if her legs do not come down. This is not always true.

It's not the worst field in the world, and it's the right receiver. But the CB is present and working inside the receiver, so the tilt should be at the back of the thighs. Instead, he throws it over his front shoulder, and even then he almost loses a foot. Playmaker CB does a great job of pulling off the WR wings and then playing (that's one in 100 wits), but this is a poor challenge that usually leads to an incomplete transition:

Sometimes he makes bad decisions. I don't think he sees CP sitting and doesn't expect to be evacuated. But you can't make that leap. sometimes:

It usually stays on the first read, cutting game time. This will have an even greater impact on the upcoming offensive in the West Bank, where deadlines are crucial. It is important that he has a tendency to move forward, provided the pocket is clean, but this often takes a long time, which can cause the pocket to fold.

Here we see a case where one receiver is open for a long time while the other receiver continues. It's open because playmaker CB is overreacting to tradition, but that ball should have been out a little earlier, but Patterson was stuck reading the defense in deep anticipation of the holeshot. He must come out quickly and return the ball to the host. In many cases, its window will close (it's a great game, but it's very easy to translate it to other games and see where it won't work due to an error):

His eyes also tend to sunken when the climax comes. He does not like to shoot under pressure. Although he doesn't take his eyes off the field after breaking the pressure, the pressure can ruin game time.

This is the "highlight" where the game should be as successful as expected. The hatch receiver gets an external lever and a clear separation from the street corner safety. But the defense makes a late run that interferes with Patterson's vision, and Patterson looks down. In this case, turn off the burst and then find another open receiver, but you want your QB to be able to supply you with the punch you originally developed in the game. This ball should be out of his hands if the wheel is still 6 feet away. yes:

This is an example where you look down and have great confidence in her leg. Try to move forward through the pocket where there are no wrinkles to move forward. Meanwhile, he has an open return option that can earn him a good deal in return. There is a time to get up and there is a time to realize that your feet can't take you far from anything and you have to work on game design. Without opening and undressing (2 games):

Because it stays on the first reading for so long, it often causes the second reading to disappear. This forces him to get out of his pocket early in an attempt to "play the game" when the game was about to start.

Here Texas A&M puts a 4 person pressure on the defense with a 5 person press. The receivers weren't fully on track yet, and Patterson had just completed the fall, but the perception of running was already starting to slip out of his pocket. Although this pocket isn't perfect, it has room for free insertion and reset, and instead starts to scratch and peel. He makes up for it by skipping some punches and steerage first, but he often wants him to trust his pocket and unlock the phone and give them a better chance of getting it. Do a lot more than "look and walk and know you can ^{get off} the first meter":

intuition

strength point

• Good speed / rhythm of the ball, can push the ball down or put in a line
• A good athlete in a position who can participate from the ground (thoughtfully or by hand)
• It's good to extend the game and watch the field
• Good positioning mechanics
• game creator

Weak points

• Sometimes there are problems with accuracy and avoidance of compression
• Will look down before pressing
• It will stay stuck in the first match for a long time, confusing the progression time (but moving forward)
• Sometimes there is excessive foot support

conclusion

Personally, I really enjoyed seeing Peters for a limited time. I think he needs to improve his reading coverage and improve his time a bit, but he showed promise and showed a good hand. I think if he plays next year, one would expect good growth from the RS SO and the opportunity to really break the path like the RS JR. Patterson, for his part, does not immediately think about the starting position. I think there will be legitimate competition, if any, because Peters better understands the attack system and the time required for that system.

But Patterson has an undeniable talent. He has a lively hand, knows how to put the ball on the string and hits very well, even on close coverage. And if games fail, as they likely fail with Michigan Pro accuracy, they can still play and get you out of traffic. Games don't always work as expected, and sometimes the defense wins, it's good to have a great option just in case.

However, in Patterson's case, he tends to rely heavily on this skill in the game. However, Ole Miss didn't do him much favors, relying a lot on putting on 5 men and shields saying "If you can't get the ball fast, do it yourself". How much it changes in a more structured scheme, with more protection, or how much the system should change if it is the way it is and does not perform well in the architecture. ^Time out of early options can sometimes get stuck in the WCO, as time moves the ball mostly in the air. Is it more than offset by "the game" or is it too far to take advantage of what the attack will do? It's hard to immediately understand just how much his game (the good and the bad) and how Michigan (the good and the bad) fits into his product compared to that of Ole Miss.

But the talent is obvious, and the reversal will probably matter if all goes well, and if he can play right away, he'll give an extra ball (especially a talented ball with high potential) to a Michigan bedroom in 2018.
