Why do other teams execute screens so much better then Pitt?

[HailtoPitt]

Is it just me? Or do other teams actually execute these types of plays so much more effectively. They often seem to have the right amount of blockers in place for a first down or big gain. When Pitt tries, I want to cringe. I think Canada ran these plays we'll, but nobody else before or after.

Not only the screen pass but Canada also ran a very effective shuffle pass, which I liked

Especially with that dropped TD.

I’ve never seen a team more inept in their screen game than Pitt this year.

And the refs aren't helping them.

Better players and better coaches.

Have you seen our OL block?

Pitt's first play... a screen pass... no blockers there.... FSU player waiting AND a fumble. LOL.

They don’t let the screens develop. Either that or they are designed that way. Either way... no good.

We just need an OC who understands the college game. Not someone who is running an offense and 'oh yeah let's throw in some of these screens to keep with the times.'

Kenny Pickett just has zero deception. He never looks one way and throws the other.

First Pitt play of the third quarter, Pitt actually runs a nice designed screen with three blockers, and the RB cuts away from them and straight into 2 defenders.
