    Ewers has some pinpoint throws but doesn't have the field vision of a great QB, often overlooking obvious targets.  He's Phillip Rivers 2.0, great natural talent but could not put the mental part of the game with the physical. 

    His HOF presenter should mention that.

    Say what you want, but despite starting Baxter over Brooks it was clear as day that Brooks was the more impactful RB. And once again this offseason Baxter is getting outshined by the RB who will surely back him up to start the season.  

    How many carries did Baxter have healthy last year? One? Dude hurt his ankle on almost his first carry.

    once again you are blinded by a single run from a single game

    Foreman went 9 for 117 in the 2015 OU game.

    81 of that came on one play. he was not touched until he was 10 yards down the field, a guy got 1 arm on him there. then another guy dove at his ankles and he shrugged that off and then he wasn't touched again until he was tackled. this was a bad OU defense. Heard attempted 11 passes, Texas completed 9 passes for 55 yards and rushed it 58 times. Texas won 24-17.

    Foreman didn't outrun anyone lol. he had an 81 yard run and was tackled from behind at the 10 yard line with 3 dudes around him that all would have tackled him

    here's the 3 guys associated with that tackle (10, 13, 15)

    that touch happened with 10 seconds in the 3rd Q. that was his last touch of the game as Texas salted away the win with Heard (21 carries) and Gray (22 carries)

    the rest of the game he had 8 carries for 36 yards, or 4 yards per carry.

    dude was an incredible player at Texas. not denying that at all, but that single run is stuck in your mind as some kind of wild play where he ran away from a bunch of little dudes is absolutely incorrect.

    Quick thought on Zakai Ziegler:

    We Texas fans are always wishing for taller guards, but Ziegler showed that a sub-6-foot guard can be hugely impactful even when he's having a poor shooting night. He dropped some beautiful dimes and his perimeter defense was on par with Dogus Balbay and Fredie Williams. Dude had some lightning quick hands.

    yea the guy played good defense but for suck's sake I could have forced 3 turnovers vs those lazy ass passes and I'm 60 fucking years old.
