From Seth Emerson’s Mailbag ($$):
Smart was asked Tuesday night about Georgia’s use of slants, or lack thereof, and here’s what he said, which I’ll quote in full because I thought it was both informative and instructive, but I will bold the parts in particular that stood out to me:
“We’ve been a slant team in the past. The first couple of years here we ran a lot of slants. If you can remember, we ran slants in the spring game, one of the passes that Eric Stokes took from J.J. Holloman went for a Pick-6. That doesn’t mean it’s a bad play, it doesn’t make it one way or another but it is one that we haven’t been extremely successful with. We’ve actually run slants this year; (it’s not that) we haven’t thrown slants. There’s several times we’ve been in empty (no tailback formation) that we’ve had slants attached, but No. 1, you’ve got to have guys who can win on slants, No. 2 you’ve got to feel good about the coverage you’re getting before the slants. Some of what we were doing — and we don’t want to give a slant away as opposed to giving a fade away — has to do with leverage.”
The two bolded parts would point to the notion that they — either the coaches or Fromm or both — just don’t feel good enough about the receivers to call and throw those slants.
Fair enough. My only question is, how easy is it to identify receivers who have the necessary skill set to be reliable in the slant pass game? It’s either that Georgia hasn’t recruited those kind of guys all of a sudden, or Kirby has made a tactical decision that he prefers to emphasize other types of passes.
I’m not trying to be snarky here. I am genuinely curious how they’ve gotten to this point. What little I know about offensive strategy leads me to think a slant pass game is a valid way to attack what defenses have been throwing at Georgia’s offense this year, but Smart is obviously skeptical of that.
Any thoughts on this?
Get The Picture 
Doing it consistently maybe? I’ve seen Blaylock, Cager, and Pickens all run successful man-beater-type routes before, so it’s not like no one can do it. But they either couldn’t do it often, or it wasn’t getting called (the number of sideline routes in the SCar game will remain mystifying to me.)

I think Robertson should be this guy. But he is either so unreliable with his positioning, hands, or routes that Fromm doesn’t throw to him.
The pass that Fromm threw to Wolf to seal the UF game? They run that route often. Robertson is running a dig route (I think) on that play where he runs across the line of scrimmage, about 5-8 yards past it. Open every time I’ve seen it run. Fromm always throws to the sideline anyway.
This has not always been the case. Almost any pass you can recall Godwin catching was a route in the center of the field.

It is a lot easier to cover guys when you know that about 1/2 the field is off limits to the offense and is not going to be used. We treat the hash marks like the sidelines this year.

That’s exactly right. Lose your top 5 pass catchers in a given year and your options are limited. Seems clear to me that these guys just aren’t world beaters on some routes, and Kirby will only trust them on plays they do really well.

We knew we were losing Godwin. Ridley and Hardman going early wasn’t such a surprise, though I could have seen Ridley staying one more year. Holloman, who was primed to be WR1, was the big shock. If this group had Holloman, along with a healthy Cager, DRob, Pickens, and Blaylock, we’d be just fine, IMO.
My concerns also aren’t alleviated when I look ahead to next year. Pickens and Blaylock should take a step forward (they’re already getting better as this year goes on), but Cager will be gone. We’re likely going to need meaningful contributions from a couple of WRs who aren’t on campus now. And that’s to say nothing of how the passing attack would be affected if Fromm turns pro. It’s not too hard to imagine the 2020 offense as being the 2019 one redux. But here’s to hoping for better things.

Not necessarily. The leverage is different. Also, making tough catches in tight windows where you may only have a step. It requires tighter timing and sure hands. The ball has to be on you the minute you come out of the break sometimes. They may be better at it now than they were initially, or there may be more trust. Throwing to those WRs in tight spaces was not going well in the SC game. I can easily see a guy with poor leverage get brick hands and popping a few up in the middle of the field.

No. This is about taking a blow to a certain area of the body.
I believe there’s more to it. Our schedule is back-loaded with five P5 games in November leading up to the SECC. Kirby is looking to protect the positions where we are thin (QB & WR). It’s also why Fromm rarely keeps the ball.
Once the SECC kicks, the restrictions come off.

No, as clearly outline in many other posts below this one. I get what you are saying, but it is not the sole component. A lot goes into a successful slant route. We have green WRs who get jammed easy. A fade allows them more space to operate. A slant is timing and precision. Our WRs currently, do not inspire that confidence in either the HC or the QB. That was my point, although admittedly, very poorly put.

A fade is a safer throw, it is lower risk but lower likelihood of success. A slant is higher risk but also higher likelihood of success. The problem with our fade routes is how poor of a job the receivers have done winning off the LOS, and pressing the DB inside on their stem. It is why you see Jake throwing the ball out of bounds, because the DB has pressed the receiver to the sideline and there is just not room to fit it in.
If you look at LSU’s first TD against Alabama notice that the receiver is covered but is still just at the inside of the numbers allowing Burrow to under throw and letting his WR make a play. Compare that to Pickens fade in the Auburn game (thrown way OOB) or even his TD against Mizzou. He is forced to the edge of the sideline and takes a perfect throw and acrobatic catch to be successful.
LikeLike
LSU has the room on the sideline because they throw mostly between the hashes. Our WRs are getting pressed to the sideline because the DB knows they’re not going towards the middle of the field. This is why it’s maddening that we don’t throw between the hashes.

I’ll take a crack at this question. I think a fade route has timing elements that are crucial but it’s also manball; a guy runs up the field and tries to out-physical his defender for the ball. On a slant route; I think the receiver has to create his own separation through his body language, using his hands, feet and eyes to put the defender on his heels.
I remember Tony Ball getting a lot of praise back when he coached this position group as he was getting good production from receivers who didn’t quite possess next-level talent (Michael Bennett comes to mind) so I wonder if this is inexperience or an issue of coaching.
LikeLike
Seems obvious that Kirby wants to do it his way. Our pass offense is occasionally creative, decreasingly successful, and out of balance with what we need to do to challenge top ranked teams. Maybe it was just me but most of the throws by Fromm last week in the first 30 minutes seemed to lack urgency and pace. Looked like he was trying to float it out there. With the tight coverage on our wideouts, the speed of the throw needs to be crisp. He changed that as the game went on. I have been screaming play action since the first game. And been mostly disappointed. There is nothing sissy about play action or slants. There is a lot of space between the line backers moving uo on the run and the safeties. Have no idea why we are not using that space to our advantage.

Depends on how the corners are lining up. If they are playing tight with inside leverage, the slant really isn’t there. If they were playing a lot of zone, off the line, eyes in the backfield, the slant should be easy pickings.
That’s what Kirby is saying: “We take that slant away playing with leverage” (One reason I think we have a chance vs LSU is I think we can deny them the middle of the field, but I digress.)
I think Kirby wants to RTDB and influence the LB’s and safeties to think run first and attack one on one match ups on the outside. In other words, when we throw it, we want an advantage. So we’re not designed to be in 3rd and long. We want to stay “on schedule” as they say. 2nd and 5, 3rd and short etc… We want to throw it 18 times and his 14 for big yards and run it 40 times. When we’re 15 of 30 it’s not who we want to be.
I think the reason the offense is struggling is that Fromm doesn’t see any open guys a lot of times because they aren’t getting separation and doesn’t trust his guys to be where they’re are supposed to be. He trusts cager and that’s about it. Cager keeps going down and the offense grinds to a halt.
Fromm also has too long a memory. A pick. A drop. A bad pass. Whatever it’s just seems to snowball. When he’s rolling it’s beautiful. Once he starts worrying about things, it can get ugly.
But with that OL and that defense why would you put the ball at hazard?
If we’re going to get this thing done it’s going to be 1992 Alabama or 2000 Baltimore ravens style. And that’s fine with me. The 1980 team was not our best team, but they won the damn trophy. That’s what matters to me. Let’s go get it.

My thought is that a slant is almost a pure pass route, e.g. the receivers would take too long to execute the route if they tried to combine a blocking technique with it. With Kirby’s heavy reliance on receivers blocking on everything, slants probably don’t fit the over-all strategy very well.

Right lane would be through Mays/Cleveland at 6’6 and Wilson at 6’7

Played WR in HS only 19 years ago (shit I’m old), so I know a little about the position. I watch all the games from 50 yrd line upper deck so have a good view of the entire field/play. I can tell you that the route running of all WRs not named Cager has been poor. There is too much rounding of routes and lack of crisp change in direction. A slant is a pure timing route requiring 3 steps out of the break with an outside plant foot to create quick change of direction and thus separation. It just not there, Pickens and Blaylock will be great with time, but it is challenging enough to get Pickens to line up correctly at this point (see Missouri, see SC on last drive of 4th quarter). I am not surprised the playbook is limited for the freshman, but have been disappointed in the lack of production from Simmons and Landers. I am sure those guys work hard and are great teammates, but we need them to step up. Hoping Kearis Jackson can get into a groove, D-Rob seems to be good on the drag route but can’t remember seeing him run a slant at all.

Having stacked boxes so often jams up the middle of the field where slants have to go. Tougher with an extra guy in the box. Then add the height issue of opposing DL personnel to the danger of tips.

I refuse to believe we don’t enough guys with speed to get a step or two away from the defender near the line. We need to find ways to get the ball to Cook, this might be one.
Also, throws over the middle don’t just cause big hits on the receiver, they often result in INTs on overthrows/tips.

If you are running slants.. where you are crossing the qb.. you don’t want the ball behind. That is a pic. For his deep routes in air.. he overthrew one and most of the others slowed down to catch the ball.
