Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet
Thatguy replied to Coach pop a bitch's topic in Football
And this is where I get irritated. "If Quinn has a bad game". When I went back and looked at the Georgia tape WE had a bad game all the way around. Defensively a couple guys were saving us with individual play but we weren't playing well. They were moving the ball on us through the air. We couldn't stop the run. The entire LOS was being pushed forward 3 yards at snap. Etienne was getting chunk yardage everytime he touched it. We couldn't get to Beck at all. He had all day to stand back there and survey the field. We settled in for a couple drives in the second half only to have busted plays when we need a stop the most. On offense our line was getting pummeled. We couldn't create running lanes. We had bad penalties at the worst times. We were getting confused with simple stunts, and guys were turning the corner on tackles. The first one by the endzone was Quinn's fault for not stepping up but the second one where he got the ball knocked out he did step up and they still got to us. Receivers were getting bullied in routes. They just were overall way way more physical than we were and we got caught with our pants down. That looked like an early 2000s OU game where we just weren't mentally ready to play as a whole and then we come back here talking about "If Quinn has a bad game". That's what used to piss me off about blaming games on Simms too. We removed Simms from the equation and still took the same ass-whippings because it wasn't about the quarterback it was about matching physicality and effort level. The quarterback was just a result of not handling business. -
Yeah. I don't know if this happened or not but I would've contacted him on the side and told him to cut his shit out and see if he could contain himself. I also would contact folks and tell them to quit trolling him because that absolutely happens.

Yeah. The biggest problem is he is out of his depth there and his moronic takes based purely on emotions gets him in trouble. Then he digs in and it snowballs into a complete shit show. You have to be able to bow out of conversations.

I'm not sure it matters. Elko been working on this gameplan for weeks. I am pretty sure they looked like hot garbage for a half last week because they were working on us. We are about to see triple reverses. Fumblerooskies. RB passes. They are going to empty the cupboard on us this week. -
Another moment I was hovering over the button....

One thing that could help Quinn is even when we don't have a successful 2nd down get back up to the line and get set. Don't allow A&M to sub in a rush package. Their early down packages are pretty shitty at getting after the QB. Also if they do sub in their rush package and we get a 1st don't allow them to sub OUT and run on them. -
Even though you say some dumbass shit in the Cloak Room I have never negged you. I have hovered over the button multiple times though.

I don't know man. It's my experience people like that need an outlet or things get serious real quick. I hope we don't see a newspaper clipping you know?

Quoted for truth. I am more worried about our running game vs them. If you watch them they were popping Auburn's talented back early he was just running through the contact. Hopefully we can take advantage of them off the edge because I am not sure there is much hay to be made up the middle. They win a lot of 1v1s in the run game. -

But as much 12 as we run any two high should be advantage us. -

Imagine you are a fan of the top team in the SEC with only a single loss and can not find it in yourself to come to the conclusion that Bama, Georgia, and Ole Miss would all be 10-1 if only their Quarterbacks were able to score 18 points with less than a handful of games left in their careers, and not turn it over multiple times scoring points for the other team. 🤣🤣 -

Regardless of whether teams play 3 high or 2 high what we want is for teams to allow us to have a numbers advantage in the run game. We get that on a weekly basis. So when Derka or anyone else tries to claim that Quinn is hurting us they are wrong. Opposing teams are terrified of Quinn and Sark. They say so every single week by alignment despite what this board's opinion is. Opposing teams are trying to do exactly what you are talking about above. Force us on long drives. They think somewhere along the line we will have a negative play that will put us behind the chains and then they can come after us once they get us in long yardage. Our problem is Sark loves him some random deep shots. Sometimes we just need to keep moving the sticks. Run the football if the numbers are good and don't take the bait. Sometimes chasing the deep ball is our worst enemy. Many times we are on the verge of putting someone away and we just can't help ourselves. Think back to Vandy. We'd been running it down their throats the first possession of the second half and then we get to the 20 and try and throw it 3 straight times. That starts Vandy's comeback, excited about holding us to a field goal. We go up 28-10 there and it's a different feeling game. -
Game Week Thread Game week 13, 2024, Texas at aggy

I am going to go out on a limb and say the "you are the annoying little brother" has more to do with why he wanted to fight you. -

So here is my take on all this. The deep ball is only necessary to keep teams from loading up against the run. No one ever loads up against the run. In fact every defense we play rarely comes out of shell coverage. Look at Arky. 3 high and 3 man front all game. Look last week vs Kentucky. We were able to pound the rock BECAUSE people are afraid of our passing game. I know that sounds crazy but why else would you line up like this when you've been getting bludgeoned? 1st and 10 in the middle of getting your ass kicked on a 14 play drive where we never threw the ball and you still line up like this against 12 personnel. We popped this for about 13 yards. If teams are giving us space to run the ball we are where we want to be. Injury wise you are correct that aggy is going to try and hurt Quinn. Arch has had some snaps and isn't coming in green if he has to play. I do agree Sark should've sat Quinn last week. The real issue for us though is if a team can sit back in coverage and still stifle the run game without dedicating numbers to it like Georgia did. That's where we got in trouble. Aggy has the ability to do that. Aggy plays a lot of man coverage so we will see how that goes. It all comes down to how well we handle their pass rush. If it looks like Georgia where there are multiple wtf busts then we are in trouble. -

If that be the case then a solid apology from me. A lot of people are posting and you are usually the stats guy. So maybe it was coming from someone else and I attributed it to you. So sorry for that. Continue posting as you always do and I will do a better job of scrolling back and addressing the proper poster from here on out. My fault. -

Imagine being pissed off during a stretch we went 4-0 with a 67% passer and a 12-2 TD-INT ratio. Wild. You do whatever is easiest and working. If you can run the football 40 times and go 14-0 why would you not do it? -

OU sucking big donkey dicks didn't get us ready for a good opponent and we got smacked in the mouth. No one was ready for that game. Not the coaches. Not Quinn. Not the O-line. Not the backs. Even the defense played well but when we needed them the most to get us a stop at the end of the game they faltered. I think in a rematch we will see a more mentally ready squad and I like our chances. A couple things have been shored up in protection and the run game. We've also gotten better at rushing the passer as we had 0 sacks in that game. -

What you said about batted balls is absolutely true except when Quinn has batted balls and then its his fault. We let a rusher come through the line untouched vs Vandy and post after post was somehow it was Quinn's fault. Now look at how much more comfortable we are blaming others now that we remember that Arch had balls batted too. As for stats and context again you just got done using a stat as an example of how Arch was better than Ewers without the context that Arch got most of his stats vs ULM and Miss St while Ewers faced a lot more competent defenses. So please spare me with the "you tend to talk down to some of us". If you are going to use stats in bad faith then I am going to point that out. If that makes you look some type of way for doing that and you don't like that then don't use stats in bad faith. The two most similar teams they played were Florida and Miss St. I am not here to make enemies and I generally have respect for 99% of the people on this board as a lot of people have a place where they shine and their contributions make this place awesome. However, I am not going stepped on by the likes of Derka and a couple other posters. So if guys like you get caught up in that I apologize. -

The reason why everyone is talking about our schedule is because they talked so much shit that "when we came to the SEC we would be also rans and that it is such a meat grinder". Now they are pissed that we are running this mother fucker so the only way to save face is to say we played a pussy ass schedule. We beat Florida who beat Ole Miss and we didn't just beat them, we beat the brakes off them. We beat Vandy who beat Bama. We beat Kentucky who beat Freshwater. We would do the same to all these other clowns but of course they weren't on our schedule which is more a blessing for them than it is for us. So now the conversation shifts to "The SEC is down and now the BIG is where it's at". We should go hop in that motherfucker and big dick their conference too. No one wants to address the 900lb gorilla in the room. Even bitchass SEC Shorts barely talks about us, the strongest team in their conference. Everyone is clutching their pearls and hoping the dude standing in the middle of the room with no pants on and his big-ass dick dragging on the floor will just go away. -

Ok. Let me address this. Everyone is bitching that Ewers gets balls batted so I put the Arch ball getting batted too. A person SHOULD chip a rusher on the way to the flat. When I said that you guys said I was making excuses for Ewers. By putting the Arch ball getting batted maybe you guys see that it's not just a Ewers problem it's an US problem. Stats never tell the whole story. You can have two teams rush for 125 yards per game. Both teams rush for exactly 5 yards every time they hand it off. If you ask which team is the better running team the stats will say that they are both exactly equal. However when you turn on the tape team A is getting their 125 vs a stacked box while team B is getting their 125 vs a 3 man front. Then team B comes up against a team wanting to load the box and their productivity drops in half and no one can figure out why while team A keeps chugging along at their 125 per totally unaffected because they always see loaded boxes. Last game the Vandagriff kid was struggling. Then the Boley kid came in and looked much better than him or so said Derka. However, as soon as the freshman came in PK started calling a shit ton of blitzes because that's the rule vs a freshman, leaving us completely exposed on the back end 1v1. Guys, knowing he is a freshman, shirked their responsibilities and started taking chances causing coverage busts. The kid was just airing balls out and it caught us off guard. However, as soon as we went back to normal coverage he threw right into double coverage and got picked. Stats will show him as the better player but he likely wasn't. -

I think what you are seeing isn't Quinn being afraid to take shots its Quinn only taking shots when the numbers are right. Can you remember Quinn throwing deep into double coverage this year? I cannot. All those shitty deep ball misses appear to be when we get 1v1 matchups. Also, Sark was an OC in an aggressive defensive conference predicated on running the football. I don't think he ever saw a 3-3-5 flyover until he came to the Big12. I think once opponents saw how effective it was vs what he wanted to do it became the go to defensive scheme for one Steve Sarkisian. The one thing that really makes me mad about this thread and people saying Quinn is holding us back and Yadayada is the fact that people are daring us to run on them and perfectly willing to take whatever rushing numbers we get if it means not letting us throw over the top on them. That is out of respect for what Sark is doing. We couldn't just line up and bully teams with numbers in the box. That is a result of effective passing. People here don't seem to understand that. -
Had they joined the SEC it would've been a totally different story.
