Post and Flys Completed for Small Gains

[AZJAZ]

Its just a small gripe but I have seen numerous times where post patters and fly patters whether by the receivers or the TE's have been completed for gains of 0-1-2 yards. I am not sure what logic is used for gains on patterns, but this is one I have seen that isnt too realistic.

Is it possible the QB went to a checkdown receiver? I know each play has a primary target, but I have noticed that when the PBP say he is "looking, looking, looking" the pass usually goes to a secondary option. I have noticed short gains when I have called long passes and this has been why for me.

I would tend to agree with you byu14, but what about the when the primary target is the receiver. I've noticed that happens sometimes with me and I think that I've got a great play and then it comes up to be a short gain. I've also noticed that the pbp will say that a running back gets hit but get a few yards and then the result of the play is "no gain". What's up with that?

Yeah maybe they do mean inches. No kidding what is up with that we may be kicked out of our respective clubs if this is ever found out. This is just between the two of us...let keep this on the down-low.
