‘18 QB Grad Transfer Keller Chryst (UT commit 3/1/18)

Increase between non play action vs play action passes as in they are better on play action... and play action means any running back fake handoff (action) and roll out to pass. So, they are better in space or throwing on the move. Whenever you call a PAP (play action pass) you essentially shorten their field vision and “calm things down” for them mentally but usually it is a tougher throw... footwork wise

Essentially, it's the Jonathan Crompton approach. It helps overcome deficiencies for guys who aren't the strongest pure pocket passers. It's good that they're good at play-action passing since UT will probably run it more this year, but it also means they probably didn't have very high completion % when just standing in the pocket. I know JG probably didn't because he barely had time to throw when there wasn't some sort of deception.

Can anybody explain what this means in laymens terms

It means their O lines stink and they have to run play action to get a second to throw the ball.

Not necessarily. Stanford's OL hasn't stunk for a while now.

It affects the D, as it will cause the back 7 to hesitate for a second, looking for the run. It usually sets up the medium-long to deep passes.

Yea gets the defense to false step... on a tv broadcast you see the front 7 false step, but what you really want is that fake to be so identical to your other outside zone/ inside zone play that you get those safeties with run fits to false step and have a post open in the middle of some form of a dagger concept over the middle.

Joe Montana and more appropriately John Elway...

Play action doesn’t necessarily mean roll out

This. It isn’t necessarily a band-aid. Just another element for the defense to worry about, especially if you’re a run heavy offense.

Which is what he stated. He covered all the types of play action.

Correct but with JG and Chryst it probably does...
