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


Coach pop a bitch

I think the people blaming Quinn for all of our issues are dumb. Although he does appear to be one of the weaker links of the offense since October. Our offensive line can really take over games late. Our WRs create a lot of separation and run consistent routes. Our RBs lack mass, but they’re doing their best. The TE’s have been great all year. Quinn looks really banged up. He moves like an old man. I’ll be pleasantly surprised if he bounces back these next two weeks.

You just called people blaming Quinn (for our offensive struggles) dumb, then listed reasons why he should be blamed, and sprinkled in some hope that he finally plays better. It’s pure hope. There’s no logical reason to believe the next 2 games, against the 2 best teams we’ve seen this year, will be when he reverses this trend of mediocre football.

You are talking shit about Austin, from Huntington Beach, and I live in Chicago. Mix in a water and quit worrying about the image you clicked on from First Wok, that quite literally says “5 years ago”

 

Oh in that case price may have gone up.  Back to chilis!

 

and no Huntington Beach

Look at the records of the teams we've beaten. And then there's Georgia. Did the O-line take over that game? Fuck no. Did Quinn run in that game? No, but seems Arch had a nice ten yarder in the eight  or so snaps he got. What are the Bulldogs ranked now? 10th? They kicked our butts. You can rest on our 10-1 record if you want but it's means didley squat if we lose to A&M, then get beaten again in the playoffs because our QB isn't mobile (and makes some ridiculous mistakes). The top teams in the nation are going to take advantage of the kind of mistakes we saw today and we'll be playing catch up ball the entire game.

Too bad Quinn is injured, but Arch is the answer. Ten wins won't mean shit when we come up against an Ohio State or Oregono with a QB who can't move, or an inexperienced QB who wasn't allowed any reps because the Head Coach insisted on playing his hobbled starter until we found ourselves twenty points down with one half to play. The season will be over. I want to see it end with a National Championship, and guess what, Ewers ain't gonna win a Natty.

We've been waiting for Quinn the bounce back for about 4 weeks now. Manning combined with an opportunistic defense woulda put up fifty points against KY today. Right now it's "All Gas and One Flat Tire."

It’s not all that.  He hands off the ball, completes screen passes and short outs better..  if semi good Quinn shows up he can easily manage a game vs aggy with a win. But with one leg next week possibly who knows and would Sark make a change?

The very same QB you are talking about with all those same flaws. If we had this defense last year we have a brand new trophy in the case at Belmont. Your scenario is a dream you had last night where the winning lottery numbers appeared before you so now you are gonna play em.

Not one reporter in the post game presser asked Sark why Arch didn’t see the field when Quinn was out there hobbling around. 

Because I’m sure the answer would have been very insightful and not at all coach-speak.

It would be a waste of a question. Seriously, what would you expect him to say if asked that?

I watched the first half and liked what I saw. He was pretty good and seemed to be comfortable in the pocket and moving and scrambling if needed. That Ewers can beat most teams that Texas will face. His deep passes weren’t that good.

That “strip sack” was just bad luck to me. I watched it on my phone and it just looked like an int.

Ewers’ ball security is a real issue, much like our RBs (Blue esp). They all need to carry footballs to class all week. oh, wait…do they still have classes?

Oh, no. Our defense must suck. We gave up 14 points to, arguably, the worst offense in the SEC!!! We gave up big pass plays of over 40 yards. Geez, I remember when our defense didn't suck. Oh, and it was against one of the worst teams in the SEC. Man, I guess that means our defense really, really sucks. Oh, shit, I guess our season is over because we thought our defense was good. Guess what? They actually suck, like really bad, like really hard. They gave up 14 points to a bad team. We should just shut down our football program. Nevermind that we won the game. That doesn't matter, because when UT wins we still lose...apparently.

7 points. Offense gave up as many points as defense yesterday.

kentucky has a backup freshman qb who came in and threw more accurate deep balls in one half than ewers has, i dunno, all year? that guy was the best qb on the field last night, bar none. that should be concerning for Texas fans heading into the toughest stretch of our schedule. somehow, for a sizable portion of this thread, it’s not.

Arch is not going to start unless Quinn is really hurt or he shits the bed again.

Out of all the scenarios, I want Quinn to beat a&m and to win the whole thing but none of us are really worried if he does get hurt because we get to see what arch has to offer.

Quinn, just win it all and make us eat shit.

Payton Thorne just put up 40 on A&M. The rest of the teams we will face in the playoffs have issues as well. More importantly, Ewers is playing regardless of what this thread says and there isn’t a better option at this time. Why should I be concerned?

Was at the game so haven’t fully caught up…so without hyperbole and extremism (big ask, I know)…is there any consensus on what happened at the end of the first half injury-wise? He appeared to be moving slow and walking funny the rest of the night.

Ankle rolled up on. Probably should’ve sat.  Didn’t end up making a shit because we are a good team.

I suggest a Five Point Plan to settle this disagreement once and for all.

1. We watch the Texas vs. Florida game. Sum Ewers QBR +10 for a team win -10 for a team loss.

2. We watch the Texas vs. Arkansas game. Sum Ewers QBR +10 for a team win -10 for a team loss.

3. We watch the Texas vs. Kentucky game. Sum Ewers QBR +10 for a team win -10 for a team loss.

4. We watch the Texas vs. Aggy game. Sum Ewers QBR +10 for a team win -10 for a team loss.

5. We watch the next Texas game of the season (Bowl game, SEC Championship, or First round playoff). Sum Ewers QBR +10 for a team win -10 for a team loss -30 if this is a bowl game +10 if it's the SEC championship.

 

Then we find the average of these five sums. This gives us his measure on the ULTIMATE SCALE OF PUSSYTUDE/BOSSNESS (working title...in process)

 

0-65.0 : THE ULTIMATE PUSSY : Sorry Quinn, you are officially and forever a Huge Pussy

65-75 : PRETTY MUCH A PUSSY : Quinn, you had so much potential but you ended up playing like a Pussy for us. There might be hope for you in the future though.

75-85 : KIND OF A PUSSY : Quinn, we would have had a real shot this season if you didn't play like a pussy one too many times. Good luck in the NFL though bro.

85-95 : MOST LIKELY NOT A PUSSY : Quinn did enough to win, but could he have done more? (I admit if we end up here the argument will go on. I'll take my chances)

95-100 : DEFINITELY NOT A PUSSY : You can say what you want about Quinn Ewers, but he ain't no pussy.

100+ : DUDE IS A BOSS : It turns out you guys have just been haters the whole time. Potential Longhorn Legend.

 

(This is all completely arbitrary and not based on any kind of science or intelligence)

May the testes be with you, Quinn.

1. Texas 49-17 vs. Florida. Score = 100.0 (QBR 90.0 +10 for win)

2. Texas 20-10 vs. Arkansas Score = 72.0 (QBR 62.0 +10 for win)

3. Texas 31-14 vs. Kentucky Score = 77.6 (QBR 67.6 +10 for win)

4. We watch the Texas vs. Aggy game. Sum Ewers QBR +10 for a team win -10 for a team loss.

5. We watch the next Texas game of the season (Bowl game, SEC Championship, or First round playoff). Sum Ewers QBR +10 for a team win -10 for a team loss -30 if this is a bowl game +10 if it's the SEC championship.

 

Despite the win, Quinn has slid down to KIND OF A PUSSY, with an average score of 83.2 so far.

Please resume arguing...

Don't understand why so many of y'all are freaking out as if every team in the playoff, save Oregon and maybe Ohio State (depending on how you feel about that makeshift O-line), hasn't had similar struggles to Texas all season. Quinn Ewers has played well enough since the bye to keep winning games, and I have no doubt that he'll show up with his best stuff late in the season, just like he always has. I get that there are some merited concerns with him and the offense, but let's have a little faith in the guy that pretty much started the turn around at Texas for Sark and led us to the playoffs last year. That kid was born to play quarterback at the University of Texas, he'll be ready to go next weekend in College Station.

hi, i’m derka, have we met? hyperbole is a device i’ve been known to use. that said, are you going to argue that the UK freshman backup didn’t come in at halftime and proceed to throw multiple deep balls that were better, more accurate, more confident deep balls than anything we’ve come to expect from quinn? that tape doesn’t lie.

I don't know what tape you're watching but I saw a backup QB come in and make a few pretty good throws to wide open receivers down the field against either busted or very soft coverage. Doesn't really seem like a fair comparison.

literally just play the tape of every QE deep ball last night vs every deep ball thrown by the UK freshman backup QB and tell me that it was even remotely close as to which one threw/throws a better deep ball.

Yeah that UK freshman is gonna be the first pick in the draft. Not like anyone is gonna get some tape of him and take away his strengths. Give him the heisman now.

I know everybody on this site is a QB Guru coach in real life and I admit I am not one of those, but when I watch Ewers throw the ball lately it seems to not have any "zip" on it at all.  I know some of his passes are supposed to be touch passes and float a little, but it seems like the ball floats on every pass.  I get he sucks throwing the deep ball but he shows little power even on the short or medium throws lately.  Basically, to my unqualified eyes he doesn't have an NFL arm but when he first showed up on campus, he definitely had an NFL arm.  Is this just the injury he has that is causing this?

Every deep ball Ewers threw yesterday, there was a DB molesting the receiver on what should have been three DPI calls.  

those db’s clattered into our receivers because the balls we’re so highly lofted and under thrown. quinn truly does not appear to be aiming when he throws the deep ball, he just lofts it up extremely high and in the general direction of the receiver. every time.

In all fairness, that kid looked pretty good. He was facing a serious pass rush and he just kept throwing the ball. Not sure he had an NFL type arm, but hard to watch that game and not be intrigued by that kid. Very impressive first impression for a true freshmen

Yes it’s not fair to compare Quinn to a true freshman playing for Kentucky

and he did it against the best defense in the country. he stood tall in the pocket and he made confident, accurate downfield throws. really stark contrast to quinn, who already is lacking in this area and then was playing injured on top of it.

Let’s just move past arguing over Quinn’s deep balls. They are what they are at this point. He is below average deep ball passer. Yesterday was no different. For Quinn to lead Texas to NC. He needs to continue to hit the intermediate ball and show some composure when things are not perfect

Certain people just can't let it go.  It's as if they think it's breaking news.  (Almost) everyone acknowledges that Quinn's deep ball is not good.  Arch's is clearly better.

Now, look at the rest of the offense and what it demands of the QB and it's not nearly as clear some would have it.

If Quinn is truly injured, Arch may have to start (or enter the game early).  I really don't relish the idea of throwing the kid into that cesspool at night, but it is what it is.  It's not like Quinn has any experience there either.
