Gotta stop with these cop out posts. QBs miss reads/passes all the time.
However, some of the counters by the coach flat out sucks as
@BritCard pointed out.
Kliff has no feel for when to call a screen pass. As of now no feel on moving the pocket. Even mediocre OC's know when to roll out a QB/giving them half field reads to get some completions. Andy Reid even resorted to it last night for Mahomes a couple times.
The issue is yes the QB isnt good at intermediate. The high quality play callers know how to work around their QB issues.
As of now Kliff's counter is to throw swing passes and hope Kyler takes off running.
He's just as accountable as the QB. Because he not an NFL lifer. He's not McVay or Shannahan who know who to consistently move the pocket and scheme guys open that way.
So his non answer is correct. He doesnt know. He's learning on the job as well.
Kliff has a lot of upside as a play caller. But he sucked. He owned it. Let him and hope things get better.
