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


Coach pop a bitch

Recommended Posts

Daniel Jeremiah (NFL draft analyst) was on a podcast I was listening to yesterday and mentioned he heard the oblique injury was much more severe than the team/Ewers camp let on. He said he heard there was a tear.

It's going to be frustrating to read and see, but I'm sure once the season is over, there is going to be a lot of pushing from the Ewers camp to let people know how unhealthy he was to try to justify some of his poor play. I guess that is why these guys hire agents/PR teams.

Nah, he was just being a pussy.

Jesus, the blocking was worse than I thought. Literally no one maintained a block, I thought I was exaggerating when I said that earlier. That might have been the worst blocking we have had on any play in the last 4 years.

That was just Golden getting blown up. It looks worse when the RB get popped fumbles it 4 yards backwards to Quinn. 3 guys are coming from the outside that never would have made the play, if Golden didnt get destroyed and the the RB went A/B gap

I understand Golden got blown up, he wasn't the only one and literally no one else was able to sustain a block either. The film doesn't lie. I know that is difficult in a loose ball situation but # 55 got pancaked into the backfield by his assignment not to mention the other disastrous attempts to block.

This. Why the hell was Golden there to begin with?  Terrible play call.

Yeah, for the most part it isn't that bad (Majors gets run the fuck over though). No one on the line is expecting the ball to still be in the backfield that long after the ball is snapped.

Goosby was pretty bad too. He contributed very little to the double team and then didn't get a hand on the guy going past him.

Clearly Arch could have reacted fasted and ran straight for a touchdown 

His juke would have broken the ankles of 5 ASU defenders and sent them straight to the hospital. He then would’ve hurdled 3 more defenders, who would all quit football on the spot from shame. He would outrun the remaining defenders by effortlessly gliding down the sideline at 80% effort.

3rd and 7, 10:47 in the 2nd Quarter. This is the "jump ball" to Helm in the endzone. Chance to practically put the game away here and the play call seemed to work, except for the QBs choice. Motion identifies the defense is not in man. The run two in routes on the right side, a cross route on the left side and a RB route up the left sideline/WR route up the right sideline.

Good throw probably gets over the LB to Golden for an easy TD.

I would also bet Bond beats that LB's tackle attempt for a first down.

Hell, the throw to Helm probably works if Ewers throws it sooner because the safety is too deep.

Instead, Ewers throws it late to the player essentially bracketed by four defenders.

One thing to consider is that they all stopped blocking, completely and turned around after the fumble. 

I'm not defending the play, but the reality exists that Wisner could have called "ball". In which case, ALL players, including OL have been coached to stop whatever their assignments were and look for the ball.

If you look closely, as soon as the ball springs loose, the stop blocking, turn and start looking at the ground. "loose ball drill" 

It might possibly explain why all of them, at the same time stopped their blocking assignment, turned around and started looking around.

Bad play call, bad execution of a bad play call, bad blocking to start with from the get go, great "tip" drill by Ewers to catch the ball in the air, look for running room. Bad job of running the "ball" drill by the OL, maybe. Good choice by Quinn to manage a bad situation and not make it worse by just going down.

Best result of a cluster fuck we probably could have hoped for in that situation.

Could be true and might be probable but at this point we don't truly know. Kelvin Banks kept blocked and even he got shedded. Best case was 3 guys completely whiffed or bull dozed. That play was doomed. ASU had the perfect call.

Well, it was shitty play call with bad execution AND ASU schemed it well.

Yeah, and we had several of these in the game that handed ASU momentum. The 2nd & 4 when we needed to kill clock pass play and Q throws it into double coverage and gets picked - pretty bad combo by Sark and Q.

We do such solid shit that gets us leads then very consistently do this in 3rd quarter. Threw deep to attack early, won the game by attacking late... but in between just let it go entirely? Head scratchers.

Yeah, I like Joel Klatt and I was listening to his take on this game. 

Aside from the penalty discussion aspect, he nailed it. Not just this game but bigger picture. The lack of consistency from Ewers and this Texas offense is nearly inexplicable. Klatt even talked to the duality of Quinn, amazing sometimes then suddenly not and in this game amazing again at the end.

I'm leaning more and more into Sark's ownership of these issues.

Post up page talked about perhaps Quinn is worse than reported by Texas. If so.. that means Arch is far enough behind in development that Sark opted to play a seriously injured and limited player. That makes not getting Arch in for more snaps and even worse decisions to increase that development,  you know, it case it gets worse.

If Quinn isn't that hurt, why the flashes of greatness and sudden huge periods of lack of production? It's a legitimate question, and given some of the scheme for ASU, aggje Georgia1 and Georgia2 not to mention the 3rd quarter doldrums we've had since Michigan..  WTF is going on with this offense? 

I know most of this belong in the Sark thread but it is perplexing at the least. 

You look at ND and OSU, they are peaking now, at the perfect time. Whereas Texas seemed to take a step back vs a good and fast but not great ASU D. Its... not encouraging and creates a lot of questions for which I have some ideas but it's just flinging poo at the wall.

It's most infuriating because I do believe, firmly, this is a championship caliber D and they are performing like it. I think we have the players to be a championship caliber O, but we just don't look like one, consistently. Sure there are flashes like the start and end of ASU.. and we look wildly amazing. But.. why just flashes? It's fucking infuriating.

Eh. ND just isn’t very good IMO.
I think they’ve had a lucky draw and GA without Beck.
I’d be surprised if they beat Pedos.

I'll be surprised if they don't.  Vegas has it ND -1.5, and I think they'll cover.  For one thing, Freeman is proving to be a terrific coach, and Franklin is a proven moron.  Blouses.

This. 

PSU was running at will against Boise, then for no reason, he went full regard and flung the ball around for 3 quarters. 

Freeman has a clue, Franklin consistently loses the bigger games against good coaches with equal talent. 

PSU winning would shock me.
