Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet


Coach pop a bitch

Recommended Posts

Everyone who has watched Ewers knows he's not accurate on deep balls and when he's playing well he thrives on the intermediate throws. He's been down right awful on throws between 5-15 yards since coming back from injury. I was playing around with some data and on those throws last year he had an EPA per play of 0.463 and he's at -0.01 since coming back. His on target percentage has dropped from 71 to 60 and his catchable pass percentage has dropped from 84.2 to 68 percent while his bust percentage on those throws has gone from 5 percent to 23 percent. The offense has to find some verticality if they're to be able to move the ball down the stretch.

Got kind of quiet here. Not enough arguing. Hey @BurntOrange&White. What is the receiver supposed to do here?

Golden can look at his fucking QB and/or run his fucking route with some intention.

Quinn looks to Golden, who is jogging his fucking route not even looking. No option there.

Quinn progresses to Wingo, who is covered.

Sacked.

Yes, the OL and RBs need to do a better job blocking, as well, but Golden gets the ball in space if he bothers to look or actually runs hard enough off the snap to make the comeback make sense.

Spoiler

WRs and DBs often make me angry.

That was on the OL for their terrible blocking and nobody reacting to the corner blitz. Nobody was open by the time the pressure came. 

Looking at the replay I noticed the defender jumped to block the pass even before Quinn lifted his right arm to start his throwing motion. Why? Because Quinn slapped the ball with his left hand. Look at how the defender reacts to the slap. They know that’s a tell before Quinn throws the ball.

the blitzer knew where the pass should be going, the dback coming up knew where the pass should be going, the receiver's running to the endzone with his thumb up his ass getting his QB sacked.

Yeah. Quinn is not, and will never be, perfect. However, he is not nearly as bad as this thread says he is.

I've said I'm most pissed because he can make all these throws. He's just being a fucking pussy. It's all mental with Quinn it's not overhype he's really that fucking good. That's why it sucks to watch him play like a pussy.

You’re the worst fucking poster on this site. I’m not a Quinn apologist, he definitely looks like crap lately. But it would be fun to watch him punch you right in your fucking face.

Even the dback came up expecting him to do the right thing and was like where the fuck is he going?

Some here know but for those that don't know as soon as Wingo sees the DB blitz he is supposed to go hot. You don't keep running your long ass route. You immediately break your route off and make yourself available. This is usually in the form of a stop route, curl, or slant. This is a non verbal sight adjustment based on what they see. @Derka would say look at stupid Quinn when Quinn is looking right where Wingo should break his route off but when he doesn't he is forced to eat the ball. When shit goes wrong it's not always because "Quinn is a shit quarterback". Sometimes his hot read isn't there because a freshman receiver didn't see the blitz. Or it's zone defense and Quinn is expecting the receiver to sit in an open spot and he keeps running across the formation.

I said it before but I will say it again. It's almost always the simplest answer. His top 4 receivers gone, his two backs(good at pass pro), and his RT. Maybe the kid is struggling because of that. Everyone is still trying to put it all together. Yes. Quinn isn't the most mobile. He has a low, sidearm delivery. His footwork isn't the best. He is shaky with the deep ball. He can get a little panicky with pressure. But when you keep him clean he is damn good.

Quinn is what he is. QE is the kind of QB, like Brady, that you have to keep clean. Give him a solid pocket and he will sling it all over. Every player has flaws. Tom Brady had those same flaws. So they made sure to keep Tom's line solid year after year. Everyone understands what is going on. Even opposing defenses. Hopefully Sark gets it cleaned up.

Oh man you are about to get flamed by idiots thinking you’re saying Ewers is comparable to Brady

Seems like he and Quinn were on the same page during the OU game this year in a similar scenario and it went for big yardage.

Lol this is why people are saying you must be related to him.
Not the most mobile? He’s glacial
Footwork isn’t the best? It’s been terrible his whole career
Shaky with the deep ball? He’s been terrible at it his whole career
A little panicky with pressure? He has abysmal pocket presence

As far as some people are taking being blind haters (some like immamac are definitely taking it way too far) you are just as much being a sunshine pumper.

I'm waiting for the McRib's to enter the discussion again...

Maybe they'll be back soon now that they've benched the long time starter The Royale with Cheese due to a bad batch of onions.  Those McRibs should be healed by now.
