It’s time for Week 5 of the 2021 NFL season, which means it’s also time for the Touchdown Wire Preview Podcast with Doug Farrar and Mark Schofield! This week, our intrepid analysts pose the following questions:
- Why is Russell Wilson a slugger when he should be a volume puncher?
- Why does Zach Wilson have the worst pre-snap motion stats… maybe ever?
- Why should the Packers avoid any Cover-0 looks against Joe Burrow?
- Why do the Steelers keep running that flat pass to Najee Harris on fourth down when it never works?
- Why can’t the Dolphins decide on an offensive philosophy, and why should we give Richard Sherman after his tough outing against the Patriots?
- Why is Washington’s defense a complete tire fire?
- Why is Jalen Hurts leaving so many big plays on the field, and what does the Stephon Gilmore trade tell you about Carolina’s defensive philosophy?
- Why does Trevor Lawrence not have the head coach he deserves, and can we just be done with the Urban Meyer thing already?
- Will Mac Jones get off the Chad Pennington plan this season, and why does New England’s 2021 defense look a lot like New England’s 2019 defense (which is a really good thing)?
- How will the Raiders counter Justin Fields and Bill Lazor’s mercifully great passing plan? (Hint: It’s not with that spot-drop country Cover-3 you guys play all the time).
- Why should the Browns be concerned about Baker Mayfield all of a sudden?
- And why are the Bills’ and Cardinals’ defenses leading the way for those teams, above and beyond their high-powered offenses?
