It's not on Kap when you have a situation like that, it's on Roman or the putrid pass blocking..Alexis is 2 of 9 right now with a couple of sacks..yeah he's playing lights out and 7 down..gimme a break with this smith BS man..
You do know there's these things called audibles, that allow the QB to change the play at the line of scrimmage, which also, change the routes that WR's run.
If Colin is having issues reading the defense, he's either
A) Not going to audible into a play that can counter that play (aka changing to a slant play)
or
B) Stick with the original play
Being able to read a defense is something that comes with experience, something Alex has and something Colin is gaining.
