it’s basically word-for-word what a several of us have been saying for years, only to be screamed at, melted down over, and accused of “hating” quinn ewers.

gonna highlight this one too for all the people who’ve cussed me out the last two days for suggesting that quinn wasn’t awesome at Texas.

So it’s ok to shit on Bert?

Yeah, he should have made one of those FGs.  Ideally, the offense doesnt stall and settled for a 48 yarder.  Not what I’d call a satisfactory drive.

Thats where Ewers needed to seal the deal.  And Sark too.  We’ve lost several games because the offense did not finish the deal.  Bama 22.  OU and UW 23.  ASU in 24.  Don’t settle for FGs.

It's not moot.  What sort of learning disability do some of you have where you simply cannot understand that there were multiple contributing factors to our bad play?

Some of you idiots probably get mad when a hitter fails to get on base half the time.

No, no, no...it is all 100% on Quinn Ewers. He obviously took a lot of posters' moms out for a nice seafood dinner and never called them back.

0/2 of is pretty bad.  1/2 isn't great.  Who is shitting on Bert btw?  I'm not calling anyone names.  Just stating the facts that he missed twice inside 4 minutes left.

There’s been very little said positive about Bert since that day.  And you highlighted 0-2 when he was 1-3 with 4-4 on extra points.  There has no doubt been finger pointing at Bert.

The very first miss was 48 yards, roughly a 50/50 proposition.  He makes that ASU have 1:30 for a game tyer.  Who knows how it goes from there.  The offense’s objective is to score and leave no time.

Yes, he needs to make one of those.

1/3 is horrendous for a kicker.  That's a fact.  I've stated why I think Quinn plummeted a few times already.  He can't throw a consistently good deep ball.  Every QB drafted before him threw that pass better than him.  It was also the difference in us winning by 2 possessions for most of our games versus breaking their backs.  I just don't understand the personal vendetta that some of our fans have with Quinn.  It's sad.  A great deal are actively rooting for him to fail.  What the fuck is that about?  Derka's reasons are because some posters hurt his feelings.  THAT IS FUCKING INSANE TO ME!

who here has a vendetta against QE? who here has said they are rooting against him? where are you getting this from?

people are literally just talking about his performance and limitations as a qb, yet so many of you make it out to be like people are wishing death upon  the guy. you bombasticize the most objective and factual criticisms of him and then you get yourself all huffy and puffy over your own made up, totally skewed version of events. that’s what’s insane.

What's insane is the fact that you get offended when people don't agree with your degree of criticism.  You paint those people as "Quinn could do no wrong" supporters, when that's not at all true, at least in the vast majority of cases.  I think most here acknowledge his flaws. 

Furthermore, when people point out other failings of other Longhorns you push back as if those failures didn't happen or you assert how they're a natural consequence of Quinn's play.  This is not personal, it's a question of the lopsidedness of your arguments, along with those of a few others.

speaking of worthy, this is the same website where a bunch of people were like, “man fuck xavier worthy, i hope that pussy transfers”, and those people didn’t catch 0.00001% of the hell as the people who said stuff like, “quinn ewers footwork and pocket presence are terrible.”

is that a fact? how is pointing out the special treatment that QE got from fans, or reiterating that position players are fair game for criticism and insults while the qb is off limits “moving the goal posts”?

also i’m glad you brought that up, because one of the funniest things about you QE zealots is that over the last two years you’ve gone from, “he’s a future heisman winner and no.1 overall pick” to now, after he nearly went undrafted, simply trying to argue that he wasn’t the main guy holding his teams back. and yet, at no point between “goat him” and “but bert auburn missed some kicks too!” have you guys said, “yeah i was wrong about QE.” that’s some mighty fine goal posts moving if i do say so myself.

Sorry objective analysis and breakdown of Quinn’s game hurts your feel feels. And if that isn’t enough there is also the objective data that he was worse in 24 than 23. Sorry about objective information.

You are on a Texas football board basically trashing, yes trashing our three year starting QB that helped turn this program around.

Fuck off.

Why? All those reasons listed are why this team was held back by our QB. I’m happy we had semi final appearances the last two years but this years team was good enough to win a title with a top 3 defense in program history. Back to back years we’ve set program records for draft picks with the most important position limiting this team. You could see it in how Sark had to call plays because of those limitations. You will see it this year when the offense looks completely different because of a QB who can push the ball downfield and has athleticism to avoid the rush and limit self sacks with better pocket awareness. But some growing pains are expected for a first year starter, the issue with Quinn is he regressed so much from year 2 to year 3.

Hi,

I came across your profile, and I really like your content and wanted to start a conversation with you regarding franchise opportunities. Have you put much thought into what it might be like to transition out of your current role?

Being at the heart of franchising for 14 years, l've seen so many people buy a franchise and never look back. The biggest takeaway is that they finally reclaimed their freedom after years of working for others.

Considering your captivating posts, I thought you'd be an interesting candidate. Would you want to learn a bit more?

😀 Sure, Please Call Me

Doesnt matter where QE got drafted, other than money...NFL is the ultimate meritocracy.  He went to a good situation.  Tua wont be in the league by Halloween, too oft injured.  If QE has a good camp , he'll be playing plenty and will get locked up with a nice contract in time.  In some ways getting drafted lower will water down expectations.  I think he will fine.  Im rooting for him.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy is currently in the final year of his $3.7 million rookie contract. He is expected to sign a new, long-term contract extension, potentially making him one of the highest-paid quarterbacks in the league. While the specifics of the new deal are still being negotiated, reports suggest it could be in the range of $58-68 million per year

Those are your opinions and don’t mean shit.

Here I will show you how it works….

Obviously Arch would have serious growing pains last season starting in place of Quinn.

Probably would have thrown a lot more picks than Quinn and probably would have cost us at least four or five games.

No way we play in the SEC Championship game with him as our starter.

See that sounds just as stupid as the shit you and derka are spewing.

Why don’t you two get a room and watch what Sark said about Quinn in that interview posted.

You know someone that knows what he is talking about.

You know Sark has won as many national championships as head coach as I have.  But he’s lost far more games as Texas head coach than I ever have or will.

Analytics also do not tell the whole story.

Scouts have blown more QB picks in the draft than they have got right for years.

Please enlighten us on your man amongst boys definition since you are so bright.

Hint: Vince does not qualify for that title.

He has that title for high school and college but not the NFL.

you keep making arguments like this, i.e. tangential red herring arguments that don’t even mention QE, instead of just making your case for QE based on his own merits body of work. that’s very telling.

I don’t need to make a case for Quinn.

He was a winner and played his ass off for Texas.

Your only argument is he kept us from winning a national championship which is about the dumbest fucking thing ever posted on Surly.

my god you are so emotional over all of this. every single post is so blubbery and dramatic. take a xanax or four. if this is how you handle people making fair criticisms of some teenage millionaire who had a mediocre college career then i don’t even want to know how you react when actual adversity comes your way.

also, when did arch come into this conversation? who said anything about arch?

I guarantee if Ewers was a black QB instead of a white redneck from Southlake people like Steamboat would be shitting all over him. 

This shit is as bad as maga delusion. Virtually every metric says he was subpar. The eye test says he was subpar. Almost everyone who broke down tape pre-draft saw he was subpar. The NFL scouts and GMs, after breaking down tape, said he was subpar. His receivers were drafted highly. His linemen drafted. His RBs drafted. His TEs drafted. Yet he is barely drafted in one of the final picks as a training camp flyer. 

It's ok to be honest and critical of a white QB from a privileged suburb. I bet these same delusional morons trying to argue his greatness were also cheerleading unwavering support for Hudson Card's greatness. But that was harder since he didn't have the most NFL talent around him of any QB in the country. Even spare scrub QBs like Greg McElroy and Mac Jones won NCs with that advantage.

Still amazes me how Golden was able to get behind the defense. ASU secondary coach has probably watched that 100 times wondering how #2 took a false step to the out route and #7 bites on Golden's fake. Golden wide open to the point he turns around and waits on the ball and he is still 5 yards behind them.

There are people here that say that throw was perfect.

I’m amazed they had two guys doing absolutely nothing but hanging out in no man’s land at about 3 and 7 yards deep.  Not a big leave your DBs on an island on long yardage situations fan.  It’s recent but this is as bad a play call as I can remember.

I just think it was poorly played. The Deep safety completely blew his assignment and got caught eyeing Moore (?) on his out (Xavier Alford). The other guy just bit hard on Golden's jab step. They are blitzing, which was picked up, but there is no reason for Alford not to be the deepest man in that situation. Perhaps the DBs were over-aggressive thinking the pressure would get home and the pass would have to come out quick. They did drop 6. I put this more on execution, than play call. I would guess you hated PK's call on the screen more. To be sadistic I could say Orlando's 4th down call vs LSU.
