HuskermanMike Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 We should have hired Jerry Kill as OC. Doesn't make any sense with the qbs we have. Langsdorf is younger and more healthy right now. Add in the fact that we looked good in the spring and lets see what Langs can do. Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 If Lee completes over 60% I'll be impressed. If he completes over 65% I'll never question Langsdorf again. 1 Quote Link to comment
Nebfanatic Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I think you will definitely be impressed then at least. I don't know about 65% but I think he should clear 60 pretty easily, just because he knows when to check down. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted April 25, 2017 Author Share Posted April 25, 2017 I do think his completion percentage will be good but considering Taylor Martinez had two seasons of 62%+ completion percentages, I think the bar could use to be raised a bit. Quote Link to comment

Nebfanatic Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I would be surprised if we didn't see a completion percentage between 65-70%. Don't care about Lee's career numbers. Quote Link to comment
GBRFAN Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Hoping the % goes up, hoewever show me less turnovers and NU will be fine. Quote Link to comment
HuskermanMike Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Hoping the % goes up, hoewever show me less turnovers and NU will be fine. How about we have a higher percentage in total and 60 percent completion against the better teams that we play. Turnovers are going to happen, so as long as we force more than we commit we should be good there. A plus 5 TO margin for the year would be huge, and I expect the INT's will happen, but with much more TD's thrown. This offense should be a lot better than last year. Less stalled drives and more consistent scoring with TD's to finish off drives not filed goals, especially against the top teams that we play. Offensively we will be just fine, it's the defense that will define what kind of season we have. I expect us to have a more consistent defense, and it will be great to see the corners within 5 yards of the receiver. Quote Link to comment

I expect us to have a more consistent defense, and it will be great to see the corners within 5 yards of the receiver. I think the offense will see more drives settling for FG's this year. Drew Brown attempted only 14 FG's last year, so it's not like the offense was forced into a FG attempt 2 or 3 times a game. The offense could do a better job of sustaining drives and getting first downs, but I can see it settling for FG's in the red zone. The passing windows are tighter in a shorter field and the defense won't have to worry about the QB run game. Quote Link to comment
