Also making some bizarre reads

I saw several times during the game after a play where Thorne was making hand motions and yelling at WRs to either take the route deep or cut it off (that's what I gathered from the few instances I saw anyways). It seemed obvious that QB and WR still aren't on the same page with some of these reads/option routes. One adjustment may be to just go with what is shown presnap for a while. That way there is less opportunity for something catastrophic happening after the snap. Ie a WR taking his route deep and Thorne throwing a hitch that gets ran back for 6. Just make it where if they're reading man, run the deep route. Zone coverage gets a slant or stop route.

Not sure why they seem to be having such a hard time. But if the QB is never reading the same thing as the WR, it's just not going to work.
