Why is the lack of motion pre snap considered dumbing it down? You’d think since it makes it more difficult to tell coverages with motion and it’s more distracting, that it’s being made easier on the guy running it.
I believe it. You can tell how he double clutches before throwing sometimes. It’s like he’s not sure what he’s seeing or if the guy is open enough.

Your question about lack of motion is a great one.  I’m not sure how that’s dumbing it down.  Exactly how complicated could it be?  It’s a great way to create matchups.  Seems odd we’d run different plays in practice to have different offenses.

On your last comment, this has been curious all season to some extent.  Take that CB blitz in Ga game 1.  Bolden is open but not tons of space.  We don’t go there.  Even that next game versus Vandy in which he hit Bolden on 3rd and 10 or whatever.  He was hesitant out of the break.  It worked just fine, but there’s a hint of what you’re referencing.

It is a bit of a double edged sword though as you touched on. The motion can clear up reads for a QB, but there is also managing all that motion. There is timing to motion (you dont want a snap hitting a leg as an example) and things like making sure people are set (you snap it before and its illegal procedure).

If that is the case why do NFL offenses have much higher motion rates? Your assumption is not correct. Motion and shifts is used as much to confuse the defense as much as it is to identify the defense. Your assumption would imply that Arch is more competent in the offense. That is counter to the fact that he is the backup.

I will get out of this thread today and end with this since I seem to get the natives riled up.

I think we all agree, Quinn could have played better this year and should play better going forward as he is a healthy as he has been since week 3. Regardless, we should make a run at a national title and we should enjoy and celebrate that.

Almost like trying to make VY a pocket passer? Thanks Jeff Fisher and early Greg Davis.

Living in Nashville since 1993, Jeff Fisher is a mother fucking cunt after what he did to VY while he was here.  VY had some issues sure but Fisher so hated VY and the fact that Bud Adams forced him to pick VY verses Matt Lienert, who he wanted, it seemed his purpose in life was to prove Bud Adams wrong and helped destroy the franchise and it's never recovered and now we are building a $2,000,000,000 stadium complex to lure the Super Bowl here.😑  Fisher the prick is still tied at number 1 with 165 losses and also has a whopping 51% winning percentage....fucker.

Is that supposed to be some kind of dig? Dude was an all pro NFL 1st round pick that made almost 200 million dollars.

And aggy used him as a wide receiver the majority of his time in college station.

I didn't say Sark was holding Quinn back. I said Sark doesn't have an offense that fits a gunslinger. 

Sark took Quinn because everything else on the roster and committed was a dropoff and it locked down a class. He was raw and it was a good enough fit. 

In a perfect world Sark has a very high football IQ, mostly pocket passer with a bit of getaway in him. 

JJ McCarthy would have been a bad sark fit, Caleb Williams and Kyler Murray also terrible fits. The run around in the backfield and throw a guy open type of QB is not what Sarks philosophy of the game is.

Its not a lark to think quinn may benefit from a staff that lets him gunslinger as that's his natural style 

I get your point but I think Sark would do just fine with Caleb Williams or Kyler Murray, especially Kyler.

The obvious and clear jump in the Sark era is on the defensive side of the ball.

So are you on the Sark is a mastermind or not so much?  USC was too long ago.  The Bama rankings and our rankings are part the reason for the question.  Talent-wise we’re comparable.  Physically Ewers is better than Mac.

I am not one to say the HC can’t be the play caller, but there’s enough to question right here, right now whether Sark needs to fulfill both roles.

I'm underwhelmed, given this is year four.  It is not a single position group or player on offense that is the entire problem.

It's a good thing the defense has been elite.

Fucking Jeff Fisher couldn't fuck up Kyler Murray in college. That kid was a freak.

Kyler actually told Sumlin to fuck off and he was transferring, so he did have some balls and common sense back then.
