  1. Let's go with your theory. It's a longer throw. Which means more time for the receiver to adjust. The ball is in the air on the break. A slot fade is supposed to be thrown to the back pilon correct? Moore takes ten steps after locating the football. How many of those are corrective to the ball flight? How many are to the back pilon? Even if he never looks over the other shoulder 10 steps is enough to drift two yards right. Every ball that goes up in the air like that isn't going to be in the exact same spot. 10 steps is also plenty of time to look over the other shoulder. With any adjustment at all that ball is catchable. Period. But in case you are still struggling with the idea of a receiver making an adjustment. Here is Bama running the same play throwing the ball in the same spot in the endzone where Quinn put it and watch what happens. Watch how the receiver initially releases more vertical then sees the ball is thrown further outside and drifts out to make an easy catch. That is what good receivers do. Again this is the example throw Seven Time National Champion Coach Nick Saban used to talk about how they throw the slot fade. I am sure he had 30 to choose from but chose this one where the ball was thrown in the exact location Quinn put it in that you said was a shitty throw.
  2. You asked about this ball. Quinn sees that on the receiver break the DB is playing him inside out. It's the receiver who doesn't recognize where the ball should be thrown. This is ball highlighted in red literally thrown right in line with the receiver. If he just looks over the other shoulder its an easy catch. Ball is thrown on the break. As a receiver you see the trajectory here that it's going to be over the other shoulder. Why are you still doing this below? You guys are constantly griping about not throwing a receiver open. This is what throwing someone open looks like when the receiver is incapable of making any adjustment. Does anyone here think Golden doesn't make this play? Same thing below. We scheme a 1v1 with 26 isolated on a DB. All you can ask for. Does anyone here think that Blue doesn't make this dude miss in the open field like this? What if Etienne caught this ball? At some point someone else has to make a play. That is two decent balls that no one made a play on that could've decided this game. But because the guys who were asked to complete the task were below average in skillset required we didn't get it done. Same plays with different personnel and both these are likely touchdowns.
  3. This right here. The condensed sets hurts us against Georgia. Sark thinks we are physical enough to stand up to them but we are weak in the interior of the line and our TEs miss too many blocks as well. We need to run from the spread against them. By trying to play out of 12 personnel we just invite more physical players on the field and lose more 1v1 battles. Sark is stubborn about that and continues try regardless of the evidence.
  4. Again, not at all what's going on. We don't run a lot of stuff that Quinn is good at. At all!!! There is a reason Sark's offense didn't translate to the NFL and we are seeing why here. It is hard to throw the football out of 12 personnel. It is hard to run those slow developing, back to the field play fakes. We don't run a lot of passing concepts that most teams run. Simple outs, stops, curls, and comebacks aren't in our passing game with any frequency. When we came out in 11 personnel and just dropped back and threw it Quinn was cooking. Where we bog down is when we go away from that back to ball control sets. Tonite we got ourselves in trouble wasting early downs trying to establish the running game and then asking the quarterback to repeatedly bail us out. Sark is stubborn vs Georgia and keeps trying to win by playing in a phone booth and you aren't going to beat them like that. You need to be able to spread them out and ask them to tackle in space. Run out of 11 personnel. Spread them out and prevent them from disguising their defense. Move people away from the box so your QB has space to take off when they turn their back to him. Georgia did to us what we should've done to them. They spread us out and ran on us. They spread us out and ran the QB with a lead blocker. We aren't good enough across all O-line positions to win every matchup. Someone always loses a 1v1 and we have negative plays. Sark is very stubborn with his offense. We just line up and try to "Out-Texas" everyone and it works until we come up against an uber-talented squad.
  5. And look at how dumb that Scipio post was about Hurts. Does it look like Hurts struggles to process while quarterbacking the 10-2 Eagles? Or maybe it's the same ole tired bullshit about how black quarterbacks can't read defenses that we hear every year. Here is a question for you and all the usual subjects. @C-Man@BurntOrange&White@naija@MrBig@HtownHorn@hobbes2702 and anyone else really. Take a minute to think about this game and answer honestly. What position group of ours outplayed theirs. Quarterback- Running back- O-line- Receivers- Dline- LBs- Secondary- Special teams- OC- DC-
  6. then why are the batted balls only happening with one lineman? Why are they not happening all across the entire front? Tonite was the first time all season a batted ball happened on the left and it happened with a freshman. Keep in mind Arch has had batted balls too.
  7. Batted balls aren't on QBs unless he is rolling out and a free rusher is in his face. Young inexperienced linemen make for batted balls, not understanding to keep engaged on a DL so they can't jump and bat balls. Notice who the batted balls happen against. Williams almost always and our freshman LT tonite. Do you remember any other linemen this season having the man across from them bat balls?
  8. Are you arguing with yourself? I said the first throw should've been over the opposite shoulder and the second throw was but the receiver looked inside. No one is arguing with you on the gif play. Geezus.
  9. Your posts lack reason and theoretical football situational awareness. If you say the first throw should've been thrown over the other shoulder upfield because of DB positioning, which is true, then you should come to the same conclusion about the OT throw. But you cannot and that's why I question your eyes. The OT throw you are basing purely on how the receiver reacted vs what he should've read based on where the DB was.
  10. This where we started. Then people started talking about the other throw. What are you on about?
  11. Again. You don't know what you are looking at. First throw was inaccurate. OT throw was thrown away from the DB but Moore was looking to the side the DB was on. If he was reading DB positioning he would look over that shoulder. How else do you think QBs execute back shoulder throws? You throw the receiver open.
  12. I wasn't ever talking about that throw. That was you mistaking me for it. I said that earlier. We were talking about the OT throw.
  13. You don't know what you are looking at. DB position tells the receiver where the ball should be. The fact that you are arguing against that says you do not know what you are looking at.
  14. Batted ball at the line. Fumble trying to run. Blocked punt. Somehow you guys think all 3 of those are Quinn's fault.
  15. That is correct. That throw you are talking about to Moore was thrown over the wrong shoulder. The throw I am talking about was the OT one and it was thrown over the correct shoulder but people here said it was thrown wrong because Moore looked the wrong way.
  16. Or we could just run the fucking football like every other good team out there. Name me a team that can't run the football that wins championships. I will wait.
  17. Keep fucking around and that's what you are going to get.
  18. We are talking about two different plays but i will bite. In OT he threw the fade to the opposite shoulder away from the DB and you guys were bitching that it was a shitty throw. Then on the play you are talking about he SHOULD'VE throw the ball over the opposite shoulder just as he did on the throw everyone was complaining about.
  19. DB as inside and on top of the play. He threw it outside away from the DB. A good receiver would see where the DB is positioned and expect the ball to be to that side.
  20. For that to be 6 he would've had to throw it over the opposite shoulder. You know.....how he did in the ez to the same receiver that couldn't track it. You guys are nothing if not predictable.
  21. Between the 31 yards and all the penalties the O-line do not get a pass. Unless you think it should be normal to ask your QB to drop back on 3rd and 11 every play and execute at a high level.
