  1. "Normally a blitz situation..." AND WE BLITZ. AND IT WORKS. Pap is so surprised.
  2. And keep the starting defense in. We need the practice.
  3. Tommy Armstrong is the quarterback of the future. Thank you TM for the hard work and your dedication to Nebraska football! But the time has come.

      This is going to rear its ugly head in a road game.

      Eh, maybe. But our defense means this is a rebuilding year anyway. We're unranked and looking at the potential for 1-2 more losses so I don't mind getting a young guy some away game experience.

  4. I love this. We're utlizing our NFL caliber WRs. Keeping it balanced with a strong run game. And our QB looks dangerous. This should happen the rest of the year. There is no excuse.
  5. He needs to be the QB until TM is 100% And after. (too soon?)
  6. They are all better when TM can't run. We also have to remember that we are playing against a bad defense. Exactly, which is why Taylor shouldn't have been in last week when it was obvious he was unable to present a run threat. I totally understand the level of defense we're up against. But both of these QBs today are accurate throwers, obviously. They are fitting into tight windows. We need more of that game to game.
  7. WOW! Great avoidance of pressure and perfect throw! Is it possible tthat both of our backups look better than TM?
  8. He has to be. Or he just doesn't give a sh#t about winning You'd think this would frustrate the players, if there is a clear difference in talent.
  9. Remember he says things he doesn't mean when he's emotional.
  10. I think the better question is - how do you think our playcalling changes last week with TA vs TM? Clearly, they try different stuff with TA. Sure, that's probably true too. As long as the result is a polished looking quarterback, ain't care.
  11. I know it's the Jackrabbits, but if you compared TA to TM this week to last week, who would you think was the freshman??
  12. I hope there's not, but I just have this feeling that the Martinez era could very well at the end. Why would it be the end? I'd think he'll rest one, maybe two weeks, and be back. Am I missing something, assuming he can heal up in a couple weeks? I think there may be something more to this...... The coaches may not be happy at all about this situation. Do you think in any way, he kept his turf toe problem from the coaches!? If so, I wouldn't be happy if I was Pelini... I hope he heals up quick, but I hope TA is successful this Saturday. The playcalling last week makes me think at least someone on the coaching staff was aware.

  14. We already have a controversy. We've had it for 3 years now. Martinez's starting job has been as secure as any QB in the country the past two years.... I don't know where you're coming from.... It's been a small controversy. Only a few of us cool people were in on it until this season. RedPhoenix you look exactly how I thought you probably did.
  15. Is this really a continuing debate? Martinez has shown some very brief flashes of brilliance with his arm (facilitated by defenses set up to guard against the running threat he presents). If teams know he is gimpy, they know and we have seen, that he is reduced to a shadow of himself. Martinez deserves props, he makes some amazing plays. But a pocket passer he is not. No problem. If you don't have an answer to my question, that's fine. I'm sorry, you're totally right. In his three years starting (we'll remove this year), according to the 4 games you listed, Martinez has won an average of approximately one game per year with decent play through the air. I'm excited to see if the Jags will take him next year.
  16. Sharpe and Bo are talking. Can you consider the tech guy a party to a communication that was off-air? Yes, Bo should know that there are mics in the room. There are also mics in tons of rooms in schools, offices, etc. You still can have an expectation of privacy. I'm presuming Sharpe isn't consenting to this or behind this, so it would seem this one-party rule is a little weaker in this situation. To clear it up, there are one-party states and there are two-party states. "One-party" basically means ANY party. Anyone in the room can record. "Two-party" essentially means EVERY party, you'd have to get everyone's consent. Nebraska is a one-party state. And I agree with others, the reasonable expectation to privacy would be negated by the presence of media equipment and multiple people in the room. I can't imagine any legal implications that can be legitimately brought up from this recording, unless it was used in an attempt at extortion. Spot on, thanks Ulty.
  17. Totally expected. 1 - Hyperbolic claim thrown out 2 - Claim is disproved 3 - Excuses and conditions are applied because people don't like the answer 4 - ??? 5 - Profit Quoting 4 games from 4 years of college football experience is not disproving anything. As I said, I am a martinez fan and I think he fits well with what we do in this offense but he needs to be able to run the ball to effectively to keep good defenses honest. Martinez does not have the pinpoint accuracy or football IQ to completely pick apart a good defense with just his arm. Off play action and such, he can certainly be dominating through the air but beyond that. No. The statement was "Martinez isn't good enough to beat a defense with his arm the entire game." Where is there a qualifier on how many games he could win by throwing? Is this really a continuing debate? Martinez has shown some very brief flashes of brilliance with his arm (facilitated by defenses set up to guard against the running threat he presents). If teams know he is gimpy, they know and we have seen, that he is reduced to a shadow of himself. Martinez deserves props, he makes some amazing plays. But a pocket passer he is not.
