  1. Ark had multiple busts vs Texas. The 1st Golden TD is an obvious one. The swing to Wisner is another, which made me laugh. Sark been killing people with that concept since he came to Texas.. Ole Miss crushed Ark outside the numbers deep, that isn’t something Ewers has shown consistency doing
  2. at some point the eye in the sky (the tape) has to be the barometer. I know Quinn is capable of much better play, but at some pt hope wears out to reality
  3. Earlier in this thread I said the first half of Vanderbilt may be the most important half of football for Quinn's career. I am not quiet there for the Kentucky game, but I am close. If Quinn looks like he did in the first half of the Arkansas game, I do not know how you keep sending him out there.
  4. I am not sure how impatient Arch is. I totally understand the thought process. I didnt see that vs MSU. I actually saw decent improvement from ULM. He did do the bomds away thing vs Florida, but I am not sure if that is more about "i have 3-4 opportunities, so screw it" or if it is reflective of his normal game
  5. which is crazy. You have people saying Quinn is the unquestioned best option to lead the team this year, despite the obvious struggles, but he is unquestionably not the guy for next year. Imagine saying that about any other position. There would parades if Barron, Banks, Bond, Cam Williams, etc annouced they were coming back.
  6. I think it can be simple. I think everyone would have been happy if Sam returned for 1 more year. I think the fanbase would meltdown if Quinn decided to return for next year.
  7. Texas Homer guy said they sat out last week only because it was Murray State. They were not on any injury lists.
  8. They ran that sh!tty offense and asked him to bail them out on 3rd downs. JJ McCarthy was much better than people give him credit.
  9. Sam is just a guy that was easy to root for. He maximized his talent and he would run into a wall, if he thought that would get the win
  10. The odd thing is I dont think Ewers is immobile. He has actually shown the ability to scramble (Washington game). He just has really bad pocket awareness. We saw him move in the pocket with minimal pressure and somehow run into a pass rusher that is engaged with a blocker in the Ark game. Somehow, he didnt notice the 600 pounds of humanity. it's bizarre
  11. By QBR 1. Ward 2. Rouke 3. Dart 4. Howard 5. Milroe 6. Gabriel 7. Allar 8. Beck 9. Madsen 10. Leonard 11. Ewers 12. Nico 11 Ewers 12. Nico
  12. More concerned a 3rd year starter is making decisions like throwing an obviously covered screen pass to Blue, than rehashing this play
  13. Really liked the traditional delay screen to Blue that essentially sealed the game for Texas. Based on my viewing that DL is really undisciplined (Turner adds dirty to that). Wouldnt mind seeing that screen and some draws (not sure I can remember running one this year).
  14. This all started based on people saying you cannot throw when teams show a 3 high shell pre-snap. I said what they do after the pre-snap look is more important. In theory it is easier to throw vs 6 defenders dropping back vs 7 defenders typically (assuming you pick up the blitz, which happened). 1 less defender should equal more space. The point is not to be fooled by pre-snap looks. I believe Quinn struggles vs the 3 high, because he is slow to make post-snap reads (3 high makes it easier to disguise coverages). He excels when he has a clean pre-snap read.
  15. Arkansas has 5 rushers and 6 players dropping into coverage. That is easier to throw on than the typical 4 rushers and 7 players dropping back. You are just spitting out BS to defend Ewers at any cost, without even thinking.
  16. this was exactly my point. You have "experts" saying "its 3 high, you cant throw it deep". Arkansas brought 5 rushers on this play.
  17. Arkansas gave up 850 passing yard the 2 prior games. They held DB tryouts in the off-weak. You think passing the ball vs Ark is what they wanted Texas to do? Again running the football is not the only way to beat that look. 5 years of watching ISU should make that apparent
  18. That thinking is exactly why Iowa State used to beat Tom Herman's ass. They continually had one of the best rush defenses in the Big 12. The 3 deep can be passed on, that is how teams beat ISU defenses. Problem is people look at the pre-snap look and do not look at what the defenses moves into. Its generally a cover 2 or cover 3. Not always a drop 8 look. You can bring pressure out of it. Best way to attack it is go extreme. Hard to disguise your looks vs empty or Sark used to go with the 6 OL look to run.
  19. its simple. Texas has a NC caliber team, and the starting QB is currently ranked 13th among SEC QBs by PFF. Nobody cares if a QB sucks on a 5-7 team. They tend to get pissy when the QB appears to be the biggest liability to winning a NC
  20. too lazy to go back and find my post in the Texas v ark thread, but I pulled out 2 looks that Ark ran vs Tenn that I thought Texas would see in the game. 1 was the 3 high look. They gave Tenn the run much of the game and completely shut down the passing game. RB had about as many yards rushing as Nico had passing. I am sure you saw that, if you looked to crop out some look from the game The other look was a 7 man pressure, where they dropped 2 and brought 5

  22. not sure it really matters, but Surly going Surly. Jones threw a higher percentage of passes in games viewed past the 10-yard mark than Tagovailoa with 85 attempts to Tua’s 78. This is most likely due to the higher volume of RPO’s with Tagovailoa taking snaps. Surprisingly, it was passing between the hashes that bothered Mac Jones. https://www.profootballnetwork.com/tua-tagovailoa-mac-jones-better-alabama-qb-prospect/ https://www.theringer.com/nfl/2021/12/1/22811214/tua-tagovailoa-rpo-offense-miami-dolphins the point was Sark will adapt is offense to the strengths of his QBs. Given Arch's obvious deep ball ability, he is more suited to play-action shots than Ewers. That is not to say that Arch will not be great at RPOs. You could see the difference in the way Sark called games with Arch vs Ewers. Sark admitted he called too many deep shots in Arch's first start. He was probably giddy with the idea of having the deep ball back in his playbook.
  23. Really hard to tell. He brings a deep ball and running to the game. I also think he is excellent with his fakes and better in the pocket (despite trying to out run an NFL LB to the edge vs Georgia). Texas has become a team the attacks the edges under Quinn. Lot of OZ and passes to the flats. That isnt a great combination. Arch may help open up the run game.
  24. Is it? You have seen Quinn when there is no pressure and the 1st read is open (watch Florida game) and then you see I completely different Quinn when things get muddied.
