Elf Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 A 70% completion would be awesome but I'd be happy to see 65ish. Quote Link to comment
suh_fan93 Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Just keep the turnovers low. This would be my first concern. 1 Quote Link to comment
dvdcrr Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 you dont shoot for 75%. You shoot for 100% and then settle for 70. Quote Link to comment
St. Herbie Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Lee has one game in his career finishing with positive rush yards, to go along with zero rush tds. Not sure how threatened opposing d's will feel about qb runs. Quote Link to comment

Apathy Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 you dont shoot for 75%. You shoot for 100% and then settle for 70.You have to be realistic too....not even Tom Brady could shoot for a 100% accuracy rating Quote Link to comment

I'll bet we see at least 1 qb run fool the defense this season It will fool their defense, our offense, our coaches, everyone, even Lee. No one will see it coming. Seriously though, he did have a touchdown pass in the spring game where he kept the defense off balance by rolling out and threatening to run it in. For now, I'll stick with blaming Tulane's ineptitude for his lack of production on the ground until we have evidence of what he can do here. Quote Link to comment

Defense won't likely be expecting that from him for sure Quote Link to comment
admo Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Regarding "Riley talks offensive plans"... It will be interesting to see what the plan is during the back seven. And the weather starts to change. That's when you really want to talk turkey. Wisconsin Ohio State at Purdue Northwestern at Minnesota at Penn State Iowa How many of those games/teams gives the Huskers problems since joining the B1G? Better buckle up. 1 Quote Link to comment

Bad2theBONES Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Gebbia isn't anymore of a runner than Lee is and they called his number in the spring game and he had a beautiful sprint out for his first TD in front of our fans. Great to keep the D on their toes . Quote Link to comment

Great to keep the D on their toes . There were also no blitzes in the spring game against a pretty soft looking defense. These guys are both very average QB's running wise at best. Also with Gebbia's frame the thought if him running around against even a decent defense is frightening. Quote Link to comment

They aren't scramblers so a QB run in the right place can catch the D off guard. Lighten up man, just because the spring game defense was vanilla doesn't mean that play can't be used as an example to show where we may use the QB run game and how it can still be effective without a RB playing QB Quote Link to comment
