  1. Bro X and Whit were dropping passes before QE got here. It's just we were so trash that it didn't matter on the wins and losses.
  2. The first throw to Worthy is off by a foot or so. Def catchable. Why does he drop it? Because he tries to basket-catch it instead of using his hands. I know you are paying attention, but those that aren't we almost never win any of these. AD is the only one. The throw in the EZ vs Bama to Worthy slides through everyone and we drop it. The throw vs Rice to Sanders in the EZ Whitt knocks it out of his hands when both receivers end up in the same area. Other school's receivers seem to never drop balls at least when we are playing them. Our guys drop a few every game. When we are focused we look like we do vs Bama. When we are not we look like we did on Sat. We have chances to make great catches every week and continuously drop them, and have been for the last few years. My issue is when a ball is just a little off but the receiver drops it we blame the QB. They call it a catch radius for a reason. You should be able to catch any ball that hits you in both hands if there is no immediate contact. We routinely drop a large percentage of "Not Perfect" balls.
  3. No. As @jw4381 said this was the second of two drops in a row, which lead to us being in 3rd and 10. Both balls hit guys in the hands uncontested, but they dropped them anyway. Big time drive killers, as well as pre-snap penalties. People here expect Quinn to "VY" us out of bad yardage situations and he isn't that guy. Especially when you add drops to the mix. A lot of pressure to put on your QB to consistently ask him to throw you out of long yardage situations.
  4. I mean height. They were bring generous with his height.
  5. The unknown comment wasn't about Underwood it was about Prime's son. I am talking about how much they have been highlighting and promoting him.
  6. I loved Sam. He did a lot with a little. Undersized. Marginal arm strength. He left it all on the field. I loved that guy. I also had irrational hopes for Heard. Everyone else I recognized pretty quickly as trash.
  7. Imagine rating a guy who has never taken the field in the 1st qtr number 1.........peak Surly!!
  8. So let me get this straight. A few years ago Prime shocked the world by getting Travis Hunter to switch from Florida State to Jackson State and you don't think he can flip Underwood? Underwood when and watched a barely known QB go from unknown to probably the hottest QB prospect currently. Same kid is reading Coach Prime has his QB working with Tom Brady the GOAT, and sees those fruits materialize right before his eyes. But no way he can flip him to CU right? Wide open offense highlighting the QB who is currently in the heisman conversation with a ton of buzz and coverage around the school.
  9. Cook drop hits both hands uncontested. Whitt drop on the screen uncontested. AD Mitchell drop uncontested. Only 2 of the 3 were contested.
  10. For real! People here should pay attention to how teams are playing us and what that says about what they think our weaknesses are. Teams are saying you can't play "take what the defense gives you" football, and go on a 12-15 play drive without shooting yourself in the foot somewhere along the way. We are going to have a procedural penalty. A drop. A bad throw. Or someone on the line is going to let a guy come completely unblocked at the worst time when we have a guy wide open in the end zone. This weekend we had multiple on the same drive to make sure we kill it. 1st series-We come right out and get a false start. Next play we throw a ball that's not at all perfect but hits X in the hands that he dropped. Would've been a 1st. Next play we throw the ball to AD that he dropped that would've been at least a manageable 3rd and we drop that too. 2nd series- We hit Krob for 16. We miss Sanders in the corner of the end zone. We get it to 3rd down and a rusher is completely unblocked on what otherwise would've been a TD throw. Ugh
  11. Number 2 Quinn has a D-lineman come completely unblocked so he just let it go off his back foot which is a bad habit Quinn has in general. His issue with his footwork is two fold. 1) Quinn has such a strong arm he hasn't really needed his feet to get the ball there. He can flick a ball with good velocity without ever even stepping into it. Which brings up to problem number 2. 2) His foot alignment doesn't always match his arm alignment. Think of it like a golf swing. Some people's swing path is aligned with the target but their feet are pointing somewhere else. Makes the ball do funny things. Case in point look at his feet when he overthrew Worthy here at the 57:17 point of the video. Feet are pointing north-south but throwing northeast. A 45 degree difference in the two doesn't help accuracy. Now, the ability to "Mahomes" the ball is what makes him special, but it should be an emergency thing he uses rather than the regular. He just needs to understand that he doesn't need to do it all the time and lean on proper feet/arm alignment and he will have less of these days in the future.
  12. Lol???? How many balls did Quinn throw that didn't hit receivers in the hands? My count is 5. Overthrow to Worthy. Three throws to Sanders. High throw to Whitt. Worthy dropped the RPO. AD dropped the slant. Helm dropped the pass up the sideline. Cook dropped the swing pass. Whit dropped a screen. That is 5 dropped passes that hit receivers in both hands. Now watch the teams we play. Who is dropping passes like that? How many passes did Bama's receivers drop? Milroe threw a ball so high the receiver landed on his head. No drop. Great receivers not only don't drop the ball consistently but they also win those 50/50 balls. The only player that has done that is Mitchell. Quinn struggles at times. We all see that. What I am saying is there are more factors than just "Quinn sucks".
  13. People on here are acting like Prime called in the death threats himself. This shit happens everywhere, but of course this means they are the new Miami Hurricanes of the 80's.....eyeroll gif
  14. Nah, bro. He is asking so he can see how you answer. It seems you like the "walk back to the huddle and do your job" kind of guys. No mention of anyone who has a big personality.
  15. You are looking at those after the ball has been thrown 1) Double slants but defender is sitting between both AD and Whitt. With either slant if he throws it ahead of them he will be leading them straight into a defender for a "Travis Hunter". Quinn throws it on AD's back shoulder, hits him in the hands, but AD drops it. Looks like he was expecting him to sit the route down. 2) This was a solid read Quinn just put too much air under it. Anytime he is going to get sacked he just throws what he sees developing early but with a lot of air under it. He did this a couple times during Rice. He needed to rifle this one in there but if he stands in there to make the throw he will get sacked before he can get rid of it. Banks followed the guy looping around to the inside and left the dude on the edge untouched. I can't see whether or not the LG had a man but if not Banks should've passed him off. 3) This one is subjective. Before the release of the ball the corner passes off Sanders and sits in his area. He is underneath the dig Whitt is running. If Quinn were to look there its likely the corner drifts backwards right into that throw. The throw only looks open once Quinn lets it go to Worthy. 4) This one is a misread but Sanders may not be open either. In my opinion, whoever this ball goes to is going to get popped by the same guy who is sitting over both routes. The routes they are running makes it easy for him to defend both options. Once again, we are only saying that Sanders was open because he looked open after Quinn already threw it. What really bothers me about each of these is they all could've been easily avoidable if we were using sight adjustments. We are shifting and motioning almost every play. That means these guys should know what they are looking at based on how the defense reacts to a simple motion man. As soon as you see that your route concepts should change. Instead of running a man beater/rub route like the one in the third example, we should be sitting in zones and letting Quinn deliver the football. You can see Sanders run his route at the slot defender as if he is trying to pick him. We need to get that shit fixed. It's not hard at all, and our lack of adjustments against the looks we are getting is why we struggle. That last frame doesn't look like Tampa 2. It looks like the same 3 high we always struggle against. Tampa 2 usually the MB carries the deep middle. Anyway, if both receiver and QB understand what they are looking at they would know that Sanders is going to get passed off and become the safety's responsibility, and that area in the middle of the field in front of the safety is wide open. A dig there would be open. Instead Sanders runs a lazy vertical route 6 yards apart of Helm. All the safety has to do is position himself in the middle.
  16. I don't know why you guys are trying to reason with me. Try reasoning with Sanders. He is the one who applied for the job and didn't get it.
  17. I agree but that's not how he feels about it. You do a lot for the U and then when you need something from them the door slams in your face. Unless you are VY.
  18. Yeah, Charles once clocked bottom 10's in the 100. Charles was track fast that actually translated to football. Worthy is fast though.
