Tryna be unhinged here.
Klubnik threw it 43 times completing 26, Clemson is a top 7 talented team including WR. They were gonna make plays with that many opportunities, with that being said best QB/WR duo we’ve seen and it showed. Give Kade props some of those passes were covered well but when a QB/WR does everything right they win 98% of the time college, NFL and Highschool. I felt Manny was there a lot of the times but now it’s time to transition and making plays on the ball, not the player. But as a former DB that step is huge and takes the utmost confidence. Imo Mannys Hand warfare needs to be a little better. He let the WR push and get to much separation without combating it. DB is just a tough position and you run the risk of getting PI called. Good thing about it though it’s not like he’s not there, he’s there just need to make the plays.
My biggest fear is Gilbeaux. Hes a liability out there in coverage, and I think he has bad eyes, specially for someone with as many snaps as him. Oregon and/or Ohio State will identify that and those slots will eat all game.
i think Holmes has been doing really good and I’d like to see more of the Holmes/Manny CB combo with Barron at Nickel. I get it they like Gilbeaux experience and physicality but he’s doing us no favors being on the field right now. I remember a play Barron was going at him for not finding the man in his zone. It’s things like that I feel he should be better at with his snap count.
