and be coming from distance.

So safeties, not so much corners, not so much things where if the blitz comes inside, Caleb could get outside and escape that way and pick up yardage.

You've got to stay contained, make him stay in the pocket, and if he takes off, he's going to take off up the middle where there's someone there to contain that.

That's what I would expect from Jeff Halfley if he's putting together a blitz package to go against Caleb Williams this weekend.

Well, I think once the game slows down for you, you're able to see things better, and then you're able to anticipate better.

Usually anticipation means

you know, touch, you can put more touch on the ball when you are reacting in the moment and seeing somebody flash, you have to fire that thing.

And that's, therefore you have to be extremely accurate in those situations.

So that's just a learning curve.

You know, I think Caleb is more of kind of like a throwback quarterback.

You know, he, he, he attempts passes further down the field than what the average is in the league right now.

I mean, the league average is really minus two to plus two of the line of scrimmage of where passes are attempted on average.

you don't see the ball 7 to 10 yards down the field much because the completion percentages are so high.

But Caleb Williams is sitting around 58%.

It doesn't mean he's not an accurate passer.

It means that they're taking more shots down the field.

And Ben Johnson calls these plays.

He calls aggressive plays, that he takes shots down the field.

And I'm sure that Ben knows over the next three weeks against these playoff teams and the possibility of the playoff,

And when he calls these plays, you have to identify pretty quickly that the home run ball, the big aggressive play, is off as soon as the snap is taken in terms of coverage and everything like that.
