Sam fumbled late vs usc.  Blindly threw a pick vs osu when we had first and goal.  Also slid too soon vs wva that cost us a first down.  

That he did.  Were those fumbles as a freshman?  There was the Tech pick too.

I have no recollection of that versus WVU.  I do recall him converting 3rd and 10 when they rushed 1.

Stop with the Sam vs Quinn comparisons. Two totally different players, which I love and admire both for their efforts on the 40.

But hey, apples to oranges, ok:
Sam = John Wayne
Quinn = Brad Pitt

Just for an example. Like/love each other over time, but to say one is better than another is just opinionated.

Hook’em!!!

Hey asshole, and when I say that, I don’t really mean it.

Comparisons are difficult because environments are vastly different.  
 

Look at my Sam comments as appreciation for him.

Quinn ewers, one of the longhorns quarterbacks of all-time. 


Fuck this take. 

He didn’t win the heisman like we expected but he played his best ball in the playoffs. He was 2 plays away from 2 championship game appearances. His record speaks for itself.

Would you rather have Hudson Card? David Ash? Case McCoy? Casey Thompson? Swoopes? Heard? Who am I missing?

Modern Texas football QB Rushmore is VY, Colt, QE, Sam. We can debate the rankings but come the fuck on.

Thanks for 2-1 against the sooners, including two blowouts

Thanks for beating aggy and pig

Thanks for the first conference championship since 2009

Thanks for a Peach Bowl and two CFP Quarterfinals

The Mount Rushmore of Texas QBs has to be Vince Young, James Street, Bobby Layne, and Colt McCoy, right? The gap from those guys to the next tier of quarterbacks is pretty wide and far I would think. That tier would include Sam Ehlinger, Quinn Ewers, Major Applewhite, Chris Simms, and James Brown?

Can droppednit? News to me and everyone else with eyeballs 

edit: not sure my point here but leaving it as a testament drunkenness. Still though, qe isn’t Rushmore worthy in the modern era. If he is, it’s cause there haven’t been enough not because of worth

And like you, I hold John Wayne in the Mount Rushmore of my personal actors. Just saying both were great in their own right, but in different times and eras. Kind of like saying who was better between Street and VY. Both immortals IMO, but that’s my opinion.

Golden is wide open on the crossing route on the bottom. The ball needs to be out already but Quinn is looking for a receiver on the left side of the field overloaded with defenders.

I’m pretty sure a throwaway wouldn’t be as bad as a scoop and score. 
Also, why do I care what a message boards reaction would be? I care about what the right football play would be. The right football play was to eat the ball and not risk what happened

Good luck Quinn. I honestly think that initial injury vs Bama fucked his velocity up and he was never the same. His pocket presence and processing better improve or he’ll be out the NFL within a few years.

And straight up tackling Sawyer wouldn’t be as bad as letting him go untouched to the QB. Maybe the refs would have even let it slide.

Sure. Not sure what your point is.

One potential thing that could happen is your QB avoids the outside rusher similar to how Bryce Young did to us 2 years ago to extend the play. Then everyone would flow right and it’s just hitting a crosser. But that may be too much to ask for

Quinn's read progression is never quick enough and he seems to look to the wrong part of the field too often. Doesn't have a great feel of how the play will develop and where to look. You are right, the left is way too congested. He also has poor pocket presence of when the pressure is bearing down and you need to make a decision.

There was plays early on, where we had a guy wide open down field and Quinn didn't see him at all. Maybe the first drive where we were driving to open the game? Would have been an easy TD.

The right football play would also include getting at least a hand on their elite pass rusher.

Watts is big for a DB, but he isn’t Jack Sawyer. Even Bryce Young likely gets flattened there.

And the offensive lineman missed a block. Shit happens. Multiple players can screw up on the same play. It is possible.  What does that have to with Quinn fumbling the football?

LMAO that some Texas fans blame Ewers for our RT doing a complete ole' bull fighter move on their edge rusher.  Jesus Christ.

No one is blaming Quinn for a missed block. I’m blaming him for his response to that situation. His job is to respond, he responded poorly and made the worst possible play. Understand the pressure, and make the smart play.

nah, given the complete failure by Williams he had 2 options throw it away or take the sack.  you just can't have a complete failure like that on the OL.

this is where having a mobile QB might have helped bail us out but it is what it is.

The guy was on him in less than 3 seconds.  If he had gotten the throw off you'd be blowing him in perpetuity.  He was trying to make a play in a dire situation.  Eating it would have likely ended the game, too.

Yea I would. If my aunt had a dick…But he didn’t. He needed to understand that he couldn’t get the throw off and trying to risked ending the game right then and there. Eating it means they have the ball backed up in their own territory against our defense and we have timeouts. The worst thing he could do is turn the ball over. He did the worst thing. Sometimes your job at QB is to limit damage. That’s a concept that Quinn has never shown he understands.
The missed block is irrelevant to what Quinn should have done after. His job is to respond. He didn’t.

You have the benefit of hindsight.  He's trying to win the game.  You and the other armchair coaches seem to think you understand what's going on in live fire, and you quite surely don't.

Whatever, I've said it before -- I hate our fanbase.  It's truly embarassing.

Yes no one on this website has ever been in pressure situations in sports. No one can possibly understand how to react in those situations.

This just isn’t that hard dude. Don’t fucking turn the ball over. Protect the ball. That’s it. It’s not like this is the first time he didn’t understand that concept.

I’ve been in plenty of high pressure situations in high level sports. So have plenty of other posters here. 
That doesn’t mean anyone here would make the right play. But we aren’t the starting quarterback at Texas. So yea, he should do better than message board posters might.

You seem to want to fight about it for some reason when all I’m asking is for a 3rd year starter to understand when to protect the ball. That’s it. Don’t turn the ball over. Period.

Thanks I try. I guess instead of protecting the ball the better play was to give up a strip sack for a TD.  Crazy stuff to think a quarterback should understand to not turn the ball over. 
Is that yalls best argument? I couldn’t do it so I can’t  say Quinn should. I promise if you pay me millions of dollars to play quarterback at Texas I’ll only fumble it because I’m a bitch, not because I am trying to do something stupid.
