  1. This is disingenuous Hobbes. He throws everything pretty well except that deep post. He even throws verticals decently.
  2. And that is completely where I've been about any player here at Texas not just Quinn. I have rarely have if ever banged on a player on this board. Every player has shortcomings. Even VY had one though I can't remember what it was.
  3. Again. I outlined Quinn's shortcoming to let YOU know I see them. We cannot line up and run right at teams and they know it. The whole idea is to get teams to help in the running game and we cannot do that. Arkansas stayed in their base D and dropped 8 quite a bit against the pass. That is not what you want. You want them to bring down a safety and free up numbers on the back end.
  4. They aren't stacking the line of scrimmage Derka. Arkansas trotted out there in a 3-3-5. On 16 of Quinn's dropbacks they only rushed 3. That means they dropped 8. People are keeping their safeties back because we are no threat to them running the football. If they were stacking the box we would see 1v1 receivers in routes and we don't. If you cannot see teams aren't regularly stacking boxes then turn your TV back to basketball.
  5. What's crazy is the real reason we are struggling on offense is our inability to run the football. We have to manufacture runs with a ton of misdirection or get the receivers involved. We cannot just line up and run IZ. So a team like Arkansas, that normally has to spin down a safety to deal with good running teams, thus ending up giving up pass plays all over the field, can sit back in that 3-3-5. We had 12 personnel and can't bully them in the run game. A three man front yall.
  6. Yeah man. Let's start with the negatives- Ewers def has his limitations. He really isn't very athletic feet wise and it hurts him in the pocket. He CANNOT throw a deep post to save his life. 90% of the deep ball misses are the same deep post. They need to be thrown to the sideline and he throws them vertically every time. Sark keeps calling it and we keep missing it. He loves touch throws. Sometimes the long throws across the field need some pace on them and he loves to feather them in there. He doesn't trust his eyes and throw with anticipation. Positives- He loves touch throws. A lot of the reason we don't have the drops you see from other teams on Saturdays is he throws a soft, catchable ball. We forget how accurate he is. Ball is usually caught in stride allowing maximum yac. Tune in other Saturdays and watch what swing/short/intermediate passes look like. They don't look like that. He sees the right play. For example, the wheel up the left sideline that the DB closed on and knocked away was the right read. It was just thrown late or needed to be thrown with more pace. But it was the right read. He can also throw on the run we just don't move the pocket a lot. Other teams have to throw a lot of curls, stops, outs, and comebacks because their QBs can't hit a 15 yard dig in stride. The dig to Bolden between two defenders was a throw a lot of college QBs can't make. Quinn makes those so regularly that we get pissed when he misses one. So was the throw to Helm that he dropped(the real drop not the one Stassney was talking about). So was the throw on the move to the pilon. He has a good arm. He cannot throw a deep post. You have to protect him. That's who he is.
  7. 53 pages and we still aren't two weeks removed yet
  8. We call that............Georgia South.
  9. It was tough before we got here but now it is Charmin Soft.
  10. Tenn plays a lot of man. I don't think he will throw a lot of picks unless they are tipped.
  11. Man you guys are hilarious. Never stop Surly!
  12. Yep. We see light boxes every week while safeties are 12 yards deep. The only time we see a lot of bodies around the LOS is when they are bringing pressure or simulated pressure.
  13. Agreed that you have to take deep shots but we keep running the same shallow cross, deep post with the dig coming behind it route combo. That is the number one we throw deep out of and Quinn misses the deep post .Every. Single. Time! He just can't throw that route. Any other deep route he has thrown this year has at least gotten hands on the ball. That one doesn't fit his eye and Sark WILL NOT give up on it.
  14. Finally someone who gets it. Quinn cannot hit the deep post. He almost always throws it vertically yet Sark keeps calling it. Quinn can throw vertical routes we just don't run them often. When we have called them he has thrown them decently. He can throw a deep dig solidly too.
  15. Matters not. I still will enter.
  16. Over.......by a lot.
  17. Does the fact that all the other non pussy things resulted in injury negate the one non pussy thing he did and remained healthy?
  18. She is ready for me
  19. He's the best walkon at Texas that I can remember.
  20. If you are going to drag the guy all game then recognize when he does positives. The Bond throw was multiple reads and money too.
  21. What excuse did I make?
  22. Drop on the play before too.
  23. Just pretend we don't have a 5 star behind him and watch the game. You ill bitch a lot less. It's better for your health I assure you.
  24. take the yards Blue
