We actually win that game vs Washington if Quinn could put the ball in the right place at the end…. I’m not that much of a hater as I’m coming across as and I understand good qbs are few and far between but this is a Quinn thread and being real about his limitations at this point should be ok. He cost us the playoff game vs Washington and cost us the game yesterday. Qb is a crazy position that a lot of us expect perfect from though. Im also drunk again…. lol.
I saw the first few bottles thrown but after that I was eventually too busy bitching about the call to the people around me in the stadium to notice how bad it got. Damn it was a lot, but obviously Texas fans hate water because they didn’t throw any beers. lol
This excuse has been used for three years now though. If he is consistently hurt how does that change things? His downfield passing hurt or not has actually never been good from a percentage perspective. So do we just go he’s always hurt so that’s an excuse but if healthy he would be good? The moon shot in the Bama game and a few others were nice but those balls don’t equal receptions in the nfl they will get knocked down or intercepted. His deep ball or any pass downfield will be torn apart in the nfl, he floats everything way too much for the nfl. I will be very surprised if he makes it as a starter in the nfl for more than a few weeks.
We use this excuse every year…. At some point maybe it’s just who he is. His downfield passing numbers have always been bad, sure a few of his moon shots hit their target but a huge majority do not. Anything going over ten yards in the air is not accurate. There’s a reason he ranked 78th in downfield passing last year.
Like I said before the game, Quinn’s dink and dunking will not win this game because Georgia is too athletic and will stop it. He was going to have to be able to thrown downfield and he can’t.
The defense is good and should win us most if not all of the remaining games but a championship is out of the realm of possibility with Quinn at qb. We will lose to every team with a good qb and defense, thankfully there’s not many of those this year it seems. Let’s enjoy hopefully making the playoffs and winning one at least in that. It’s a shame or talented wide receivers are going to waste this year because we can’t throw the ball downfield, their numbers should be much better then they are.
Ever year when he can’t hit passes it’s he’s still hurt excuses…. How about he just sucks at throwing the ball down field? The numbers don’t lie, he has never been actually good at throwing the ball down field minus a few here and there that hit their target his downfield percentage is terrible. He throws a great screen pass though…
He literally lost us the game. I unfortunately called this all week. I literally said if we get bad Quinn in the first half we lose…. If you don’t think he did I don’t known what to tell you. 17 yards of offense for 1.5 quarters…. Game was over after that. He can’t hit passes downfield yards to save his life. Don’t think that’s true? He ranked 78th in passes over 20 yards last year…..
Anyone scout or anything thinking the rainbow long ball would work in the NFL has blown my mind. It will get picked apart. Then again a lot of teams just do short passes now non stop so…. His deep ball is ass a majority of the time and always has been minus a few throws. There’s a reason he was ranked 78th on passes over 20 yards last year…. But everyone wanted to ignore that.
Did he play with a blindfold on? I don’t even understand how that stat line is possible. They won but wtf, I know the receivers are bad but damn. Did he only complete screen passes? Florida State should feel really bad about how terrible they are.
Agreed. I understand Sark’s dilemma with that. Quinn just has to get the downfield passing going vs good teams with good quarterbacks or it will be an issue. This has to improve the rest of the year when he needs to and hopefully it does, he hasn’t attempted too many so far. Last season, Ewers ranked 73rd (16-of-47 – 34%) in completion percentage of passes that traveled further than 20 yards.
That’s the worry, if bad Quinn shows up the whole first half the hole might be too deep. Beck and Georgia will throw the ball downfield with some success at least. We can’t have Quinn just dink and dunking, their defense is athletic enough to stop a lot of that. He has to be able to throw downfield some in this game, if he can all should be good, if not we’re in trouble.
Oh shit now that I think of it I just watched a dateline where a lady staged her own abduction and they thought the husband killer. She just showed up at a ex’s house and asked to stay. She beat herself up and sent pics from a burner phone and all, ex figured out she’s nuts and kicked her out or called the cops and she was busted.
That’s highly unlikely with what we know at this point. Pretty hard to cut and run with no id, credit cards, phone, ect and make it very long these days.
