He under threw it, another few feet and it is a TD.

Another few inches and I'm a porn star. Another couple of feet and I'm a college basketball player.

I’ve bad mouthed him plenty but I’ll also admit he showed real heart and balls this game, this game was wild as hell and for the first time I can recall it wasn’t entirely on him, do I think he’s elite? No, do I think he’s some talent and can ball the fuck out at times? Absolutely and tonight shows that in spades. Bert can go fuck himself though, and we are in deep shit with anything less than a stellar team performance against Ohio State

Two things. 1) He wasn't wide open when Quinn started that throw. 2) Quinn got the team into the right play against the D ASU showed, which is why Golden broke open.

Wait?! What you mean Quinn threw a guy open? Impossible, there are experts on this very site  that just last week assured me he never throws anyone open?!

1. that other team is paid to play too. asu showed a ton of heart

2. for having two top nfl prospects, OL play today was way below avg. the run game numbers show it

Isn't this now two games in a row when we learned that a QE check at the LOS ended up being great plays? Game winning plays?

  I just don't understand how bad he is at deep throws.  That's the throw we've all been practicing since we were kids.  I've never seen any QB at any level that absolutely lacked the ability to throw the deep ball.  They usually struggle with other things.

I was shitting on Quinn in the 3rd and 4th but he stepped up when it was needed and gutted that shit out. The 4th and 13 pass was brilliant. I put the pick that was throw to Bond on Sark for not just running the damn ball. Don't complicate things and help Quinn manage the game. You didn't need a kill shot there.

Quinn accounted for every single TD we put on the board today.  He had a couple of bad throws (as every QB does in every game), overcame some questionable offensive play calling, a dogshit running game (come the fuck on guys) and with the entire season on the line threw darts to get it done.  Let's ride.  

Well, every offensive TD.  Don't think Quinn was on the punt return

He had the key block for Silas Bolden on that punt return for sure

We saw yet another game where Quinn had moments of greatness and moments of wtf, combined with his offensive coordinator making it very difficult on him, with shit rushing plans/execution and strange play calling at times and a few great play calls. It’s dizzying and I can’t deal with it.

He is almost impressively bad at the deep ball. It's uncanny.

Why didn't they ever try to run the ball straight downfield?

Sark has switched to almost exclusively outside zone without Baxter.  We really need more inside zone for this offense to click.

The constant underthrows on deep routes are partly a coaching issue at this point. It's like he's not even trying to make a correction.  It's like a pitcher that keeps missing high.  Miss low motherfucker.

At one point didn't he almost always overthrow it?

Golden makes the play on the fourth down touchdown. The safety came up and the cb slowed down when Golden slowed for a split second. They both thought Golden was going to cut the rout off for the first down and he just blew right by them.

I also believe that Wisner was not totally healthy. He didn't run nearly as hard as he has in the past. He wasn't breaking many tackles, just going down on contact.

Ewers 92 QBR for the game. And they don't even count things like audibling to max protect on 4th and 13.

l counted 4 mistakes from Ewers including two bad ones. But anyone who thinks he isn't a very good college QB doesn't know what they're looking at.

That jibes with how I was feeling. The bad throws were on him obviously, but this was more about Sark and Flood getting completely fucking panted on the headsets. Embarrassing.

Maybe Quinn should be our OC and fix whatever the fuck Sark is trying t do at times.

My thoughts as well. There were some what the fuck moments from him, particularly the deep int, but then that’s another example of his coach failing him.

ASU is known for guessing. They caught Texas quite a few times slanting into outside runs. I would like to see more pistol. Teams have been slanting away from the RB. 

Guessing? All they did was watch film. I have been saying for weeks if not months we need to run more pistol. It was a huge factor against Clemson yet we rarely saw it. Unexplainably.

Come on. After Charlie Strong, I can easily deal with this. We were shit on a shingle under Chuckles. Now we're a good team that has a few issues against Top 10 competition. The latter has hope, while the former did not.

So we're not Saban's Alabama. Who is? If we get cratered by Ohio St., at least we'll be in good company.

You can name call all you want, Golden made that play by making the db's stop, they thought he was breaking off the rout for the first down. He blew right by them when they did.

Quinn was fucking money at the end.

I'm proud of you.

 

QE helped win the game despite idiotic play calls and an offensive line that couldn't  run block against an inferior opponent. I'm completely baffled about this offense. 

 

Anyone else mention how we struggle when we can't run the ball? I think I might have mentioned it before.

Golden is the most valuable player on the offense, he's made a difference just like AD Mitchell did last season.

Is our inability to do this both a RB and G-C-G problem?

Great. Nobody is saying he didn’t do his job on that play. Ewers also adjusted the play call to make it successful.

some semblance of a running game would be helpful to Ewers, eh?

 

Ewers: 20/30, 322 yards, 3 TD, 1 INT

Team: 30 carries, 53 rushing yards

That’s honestly money.  Yeah 4-5 of the INCs and the INT were WTF but his stat line and last 4 drives were money. Kid balled with no help from the run game.  Quinn bailed out Sark big time.

And it was like 45 yards down the field. Like a punt. Our 4th quarter defense was bad.

At one point near the end time of possession was something like 36:19.  Our defense was hanging on by a thread.

Not really this, but I wonder if Sark ever allows Quinn free rein to call plays that work for him other than audibles. OT, today, looked like Sark just said "fuck it" go do what you want, and Quinn did just that. Get rid of the play action, let him use that time to sit back and survey the field. If given enough time, Quinn will make the right choice and put the ball on the money.

That's what a good receiver is supposed to do. Create space for a QB to make a throw.

I had hoped Bond would be this guy, and maybe he still could be. But I love me some Golden.

Nope. Bond doesn't run crisp routes and basket catches the ball which doesn't win many 50/50 battles. Golden is a dawg. He is our only receiver going up and taking the ball. Imagine that two point reception was to Bond. No way he catches that, or even creates the space on the break to have the opportunity to catch it. When I said we aren't that great at the skill positions people lost their damn minds. However, each week now that we are playing good teams, we are seeing players far better than what we have. Last week it was Clemson's receiving corp. This week it was Skat. Next week it will be all of Ohio State's skill players including number 4.

Sark's gotta stop his love affair with undersized receivers and go get some AD Mitchell types for Arch to throw to next year. Having receivers that cannot out-elevate a DB is not ideal.

Lockett isn’t huge but fits the bill. We’ll see how Terry is deployed.

Even the 4th down conversion near mid-field, prior to a made FG, was a great Golden catch. Seemed like a bat shit play call, but even crazier execution.
