Definitely agree, I have no knowledge of what plays were called and who's responsible to do what. I was basing it off of what Cooley and Riggo were saying, but that may not have been one of the plays they were talking about, but it did look like it.
Having scrutinized all the run plays, Davis was the worst culprit in missing / letting blocks go too quickly. I counted 5 runs in which the defender he was "blocking" was in on the tackle. I think this was the primary reason for the low yards/carry for Perine, but he also didn't break tackles or make people miss. I'm not ready to write him off, but it wasn't a great first start.

Off the top of my head, on his longest run he had a hole you could drive two trucks through side by side. I'll post something later.

Alright so here's the play I was talking about. I'm not sure if this was a designed play or a great decision by Mack.
After the handoff he's approaching the line, but there's nothing there.

So he bounces it to the outside, so was it the play call or a good cut? I honestly think it was designed based on the way Davis is blocking on the edge, but regardless, he sells the inside run well and bounces out to open field.

And just look at all that room, it looks like this could be a break away play, but which way to go? From this angle it looks like he has a defender in the middle and if he follows his block maybe he can get by him to the outside. But look at the other angle

Looks like a beautiful lane to the inside, but . . .

Instead he kind of awkwardly hides behind his blocker until he is surrounded. While I appreciate him trying to follow his blocks, he needs to set his cut off of the block and try to break this open.
That said, watching the play in motion, I don't know that either choice would have been the better one. If he cut inside he'd still have to break a tackle or some ankles, and maybe he can't .
Overall he actually had some good looking plays, they didn't gain as much, but he made some nice cuts. More to come ...

Love these breakdowns Will, thanks for doing these. I'm sure Perrine will get better with time but Mack impressed where he failed against the Raiders. Just having the vision to bounce it outside when there's nothing at the line is smart.

Thanks man, I'll try to keep them coming.
Yeah, definitely agree. Mack has better discipline and knows how to pick his spots. He also has more of a burst, but in the long run I think Perine has more potential to become a true #1 RB, but he definitely isn't there yet. We may not have that back on our team, but we may have enough to work with for now. I'm hoping though that Perine will get coached up and the game will slow down and he will be more confident in his decisions and can use that strength to break through tackles. We'll see.
But I digress. . .

Cousins hands off to Mack Brown.

As Mack approaches the line he slows down moving out to his right behind Spencer Long with patience. Davis, Moses, Scherff, and Lauvao farthest down field make a wall of Burgandy. There's no well defined lane to follow, but there's definitely room to pick up some yards.

Mack chooses his hole.

He bursts through with great acceleration.

And finds enough space for a 6 yard gain.

Alright last one . . . For now
Cousins hands off to Mack. Everyone is pulling left.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170929/7cac3bc8dacc674d7b713db00afd30e4.jpg
Mack Brown sees an opening cutting back to the right (Counter maybe?)

He accelerates through the hole. He really is quick.

They get ahold of him at the 32.

But he drags them with him.

To the 27 for a 9 yard gain. Not too shabby.
