Weird Jayden Daniels Stat Bucs May Flaunt

January 12th, 2025

“What can I dial up here?”

Load up the end zone.

That’s one way Joe would defend Jayden Daniels, the Commandos sensational rookie quarterback.

In one of the weirdest stats Joe has read, Daniels really likes throwing into the end zone. That’s not really a bad thing but Daniels does not rely on his wide receivers to get YAC to score. Hardly ever, as documented by Rich Hribar of Sharp Football Analysis.

Daniels has only 3 passing touchdowns on throws that were run in by the pass catcher and not thrown into the end zone.

Only Trevor Lawrence (2) and Cooper Rush (1) had fewer. Neither played the entire season.

So what would Joe do? Well, probably load the end zone if the Commandos get in the red zone.

Of course, that likely could be a problem. More guys on the back end means that’s likely more of an opportunity to let Daniels run the ball in himself.

    Man I am jacked and nervous. 24 hours from now I will either be too jacked to sleep or too depressed. I love watching this offense and don’t want it to end. Show up tonight Bucs and kick some A$$!

  2. Aqualung Says:

    Absolutely Mac. Go Bucs.

    I loved Sean Sullivan’s breakdown on how to stop Jayden Daniel’s.

    Todd Bowles, if you’re reading this, PLEASE listen to Sean’s recent podcast and execute accordingly. His stat detailing how Daniel’s NEVER completes passes rolling to his left is nuts!

    Jason Licht, if you are reading this, please ask Todd Bowles to listen to Sean’s breakdown.

    Any of the Glazers, if you are reading this, propose the “Oh Hell Nah!” rule at the next owners meeting establishing that offensive and defensive coordinators must serve at minimum two full seasons before they can be hired by another NFL team. To lose Coen this year, unless you bring Fort Knox to the table, should violate your sensibilities. Ridiculous. Jason and Todd deserve better.

    And for those who espouse, “So what! We’re head-coach-makers! Good on us. We’ll go find another! No sweat. Piece of cake!”

    Well, ignorance is your gift. You’ll not find better than Coen.

    Coach Coen, if you’re reading this, take the high road. Serve a second season and be loyal to Licht, Bowles and the Glazers for making your dream come true. Sure…negotiate some new Benjamins based on your absolute proven merit, absolutely, but don’t go. That kind of karma will come back to haunt you. It just will.

    See y’all at the game tonight!

    Cheers.

    The key is the offense being aggressive and playing to win. We made the playoffs so mission accomplished. Just have fun. All gravy from here on out.

  6. Win in the Trenches Says:

    Bucs have to play like there hair is on Fire…. no coming out flat…. Defend there Home turf….

    I agree with you in principle. Not so much forcing a “two year” rule but an honor your contract rule. That’s the American Way! Coen’s agent may have negotiated a special out if offered an HC position. If that’s true then Coen could walk. If not and there are more years left he should be forced to HONOR them!

    If Coaches and their agents knew they’d be forced to honor their contracts then the pressure is on them to use their “value” at the start of the contract to negotiate. See Belechik whose 1 million out with UNC leaves him still able to bolt to the NFL. IF he does that’s on UNC not BB.

    The Bucs GAVE Coen an opportunity to showcase his talent. But Coen was perhaps a hot commodity and his agent had the “opportunity” to negotiate an escape clause, and indeed perhaps he has.

    Along with the “honor your contract” rule it’s clear there should be ZERO conversations until some date after the SB. I know, guys would back door around it but at least it would calm it down a bit.
