  1. The sequencing of our schedule is fucking horrible this year and I'm still pissed off about it. At Ohio State in Week 1. Three cupcakes at home and a bye in September, not a single home game in October. Ridiculous.
  2. Arch's first play in the Colorado State, UTSA, and Ohio State games. arch first play.mp4
  3. Thanks. Figured we were doing something, I have never noticed it on a TV broadcast.
  4. I noticed a comment from Sark in post-game PC (5:20 mark) about sitting with Arch at halftime to look at the tape/coverages. My questions are this: - Is there any coach communicating with our QB during the game on the sidelines? - Are we actually waiting until halftime to discuss tape/coverages?
  5. No surprises here. Fitzpatrick has been a poor Ryder Cup player so far in his career, hopefully that continues.
  6. Red Pill X Shift to Far Right 1488 Choke Woke
  7. Your hands get tied when the QB can't connect on easy completions. But I still wish Sark had a little more up his sleeve to overcome it.
  8. Kinda crazy to think about the last 12 games Texas has played. Our opponents have been: Ohio State (x2) Georgia (x2) Clemson Arizona St. OU Florida Vanderbilt Texas A&M Arkansas Kentucky I mean, god damn, this team has been through some battles. I'm sure they're eager to eat these next 3 cupcakes coming up.
  9. Film Guy's breakdown:
  10. Did kayfabe die or just transfer to right-wing politics?
  11. Arch played like shit but that sideline pass to Endries was a legit dot. Great throw with the arm strength needed to fit that in a tight window.
  12. New Surly motto?
  13. I fully admit this is overanalyzing, but based on yesterday's performance I think Sark did Arch absolutely no favors with how he used him post-Mississippi State game last year. Arch only saw the field again in high pressure situations. Throw into the fire vs. UGA when Sark benched Quinn. Used as a battering ram in the A&M and playoffs. All those positives from Mississippi State game (yeah, they suck on defense, but still Arch was fantastic) and being comfortable as a pocket passer got thrown out the window for the rest of the year. It's clear Arch was WAY too tight yesterday and some of that could have carried over from second half of season last year.
  14. "It's not guns, it's people." - my contrarian uncle who has never shot or owned a firearm. Well yeah, humans created the firearm. Should we have the ability to restrict access as well, or just succumb to our own inventions? Apparently guns have more agency than we do? Fuck off. The world has gone mad.
  15. Everyone thinks about the children, but what about the guns??? They have just as much of a right to co-exist on this planet. They were here before us or something.
  16. Agreed. But I'm assuming there are Surly posters at the games that keep an eye on the sidelines. I'm curious what our QB's communication is like with assistants while defense is on the field.
  17. For the next 3 games, we should do the exact opposite of this. Arch needs as many dropback passing reps as possible. Don't lean on the run game at all. We've got to fix the passing attack.
  18. Sark should go pass heavy the next 3 games to get Arch comfortable. Assuming he only plays 3-ish quarter in each, he needs as many passing reps as possible. No need for Wisner or Baxter to carry a heavy load. Get Christian Clark and Simon some touches. Keep that room fresh and healthy for conference play.
  19. Yesterday was a disaster and we couldn't even complete simple pitch and catches, but writing off our explosiveness is silly. I think(hope?) yesterday's game was an aberration, but we're fortunate to have 3 easy games in September to get things right. IMO we should go pass heavy and keep RB room fresh and healthy for conference play. No need for Baxter or Wisner to have lots of carries in these non-conference games.
  20. echeese just posted a self-written article about the game on OTF board. This feels like a low point.
  21. But seriously, can we change the thread title? No offense to OP but we can't have the main Arch thread have a non-sensical and annoying title to click on for two more years. "Arch Madness" or something. Please. We need a fresh start. @immamac @LTtxfan
  22. All summer people were saying Arch had unreal pressure on him. And that's exactly what it looked like on the field yesterday. I expected him to be much calmer and looser, as I'm sure most of y'all did too. Then he threw a rushed fastball in the dirt on first play of game to a wide open player. He played tight and struggled with timing and mechanics. Without being able to see sideline conversations on TV, it seems like Sark and the staff did a poor job of getting him settled in. IMO it was all mental with Arch. He clearly needs more game reps to get comfortable. We'll be fine.
  23. Whatever mistakes Sark had as a playcaller yesterday probably occurred during the install in the week(s) prior. Not making excuses, but with lots of new faces starting on offense, Sark clearly chose to keep things simple. If he had any special plays up his sleeve, we would have seen them with how game played out. Maybe the lack of pre-snap motion was due to penalty concerns as well. Arch and the passing offense are much further behind then we thought. We need reps, and the 3 easy games coming up are much needed. I expect quick improvement.
