What Does a McCarthy Offense Look Like?

This. The 3B offense with Roethlisberger in his prime and a good OC didn't sniff 30 pts/gm but old man AR with a collection of pieces parts will?!?

 

There has never in the history of the NFL been a team that has scored over 30 points in every game during a season. The Steelers certainly aren't coming close to doing it this year.

 

Gotta say I like MM's style of camp. Attendees say there is so much going on it's hard to capture it all. I don't recall similar comments during MT's camps.

Mojo Moment...

The Steelers were in the middle of an individual period early in practice when the “Monday Night Football” theme song rang out over the practice field. That was the signal. Both sides jogged to the 2-yard line for five high-leverage plays. Running back Rico Dowdle said that coach Mike McCarthy used a similar tactic in Dallas that he called the “mojo moment.”

“That song comes on, we get together and get five plays with the team,” Dowdle said. “It can be at any point of the practice. Once you hear that song come on, you know it’s go time.”

During this particular period, the offense won three (or four) of the five reps, depending on how you want to look at it:

1) Jaylen Warren carried the ball into the end zone for a touchdown.
2) Mason Rudolph threw a TD pass to Ben Skowronek.
3) Drew Allar threw for the end zone and safety Sebastian Castro was flagged for pass interference.
4) Aaron Rodgers checked down to Dowdle, who was stopped short by inside linebacker Patrick Queen.
5) Will Howard threw short of the goalline to Darnell Washington, who may or may not have been tackled in a real game by Daylen Everette.

The point of the drill is to ramp things up quickly and unexpectedly, simulating a sudden change from a turnover or another high-leverage situation.

 

Conditioning including mental; imagine you're doing other drills across the field and suddenly you have to run over to the goal line and focus on play calls. I like it.
