DS Talk » Sutton is looking to become a greater threat in

Broncos snap counts against Seahawks In this post Courtland Sutton Jersey White , I am reprising the snap count analysis that I did quarterly last season. It will be a weekly review with an updated graphic to show change over time on a game-by-game basis for the different position groups. Since this is just the first game. I’ll give you the total snaps and snap percentage in tabular form only. I will give the weekly table each week with the updated snap percentage graphic for position group. Offensive Snap DataAnalysis: I didn’t realize Devontae Booker got 19 snaps. His impact was minimal on those 19 offensive snaps. He had four touches and accounted for 15 yards with those four touches. He did play nine special teams snaps, so I guess the coaches see some value in using him on special teams. I am hoping that Phillip Lindsay gets used less on special teams moving forward with the signing of Shamarko Thomas who should take over the punt team gunner duties from Lindsay. Jeff Heuerman played 84% of the offensive snaps while Jake Butt got in on 49%. Matt LaCosse had one measely offensive snap as the #3 TE. We essentially used Billy Turner as the third TE giving him two offensive snaps in our “heavy” package with six offensive lineman. Courtland Sutton got 44 offensive snaps (59%) showing that the offensive coaches already feel that he solidly the #3 WR. DeSean Hamilton only got 14 offensive snaps (19%). Defensive Snap DataAnalysis: Three defensive players did not get a single defensive snap, but played many special teams snaps: Dymonte Thomas, Joseph Jones and Keishawn Bierria. Josey Jewell played almost every special teams play while also playing seven defensive snaps. Shaquil Barrett only played four defensive snaps while Shane Ray played 18. Bradley Chubb hardly came off the field on defense with 95% of the defensive snaps. Darian Stewart, Chris Harris Jr. and Justin Simmons played every single defensive snap. Tramaine Brock as the #4 CB Joe Flacco Jersey , got two defensive snaps. Last season I also kept a running total of the who was game-day inactive for each game and then I gave an accounting of that after each quarter of the season. I can keep track of that if there is interest (sound off in the comments). Bigger wide receivers tend to be viewed as greater threats in the red zone due to their extra size giving them an advantage over smaller defensive backs.Denver Broncos receiver Courtland Sutton should fit that ball. At 6-foot-3 and 216 pounds, Sutton has enough size to be a problem for opposing defenses inside the 20-yard line. But as a rookie, Sutton wasn’t as productive near the end zone as he believes he should be.According to Ryan O’Halloran of the , the red zone this season for the Broncos.“I’m definitely looking forward to capitalizing on (using my size) more this year,” Sutton said.Via O’Halloran Bradley Chubb Jersey White , Sutton had just two catches on eight targets on plays inside the 20-yard line last season, though both of those catches went for touchdowns. There were 176 players that had more than two red zone catches and 80 that received more than eight targets last year.Sutton was a rookie adapting to the pro game last season. Additionally, developing the chemistry and trust with a quarterback to throw your way when the field condenses near the end zone can take some time. But as he gets sets to enter year two, Sutton believes it’s time to show what he can do.“Personally in the red zone, I think I’m one of the biggest threats that (defensive backs) go against Womens Bradley Chubb Jersey ,” he said. “Every DB that I played against or will play against will probably say the same thing. They might not show it, but they know.”
