Is Keller mobile at all?

[hskrdedhed]

I really dont know , so i'm asking some of you. I know Zac sure as hell wasnt.

zac was like a horse stuck in a 5 in a half foot deep mudhole. anything thats slightly better will work

[landonhusker]

more so than Taylor but he is not a scrambler by any means. the big difference will be arm strength and leadership. he will be able to thread the ball between the safety and CB 25 yds downfield. he is also a very vocal leader and doesnt accept mediocrity. I also believe he is just a better QB and you wont see near as many sacks because he wont hold on to the ball for 98.7 seconds.

He doesn't have world class speed, but he is pretty mobile. ASU ran some roll out stuff for him last year that seemed to work fairly well. I don't think we will see any designed quarterback draws for Keller or Lee for that matter but even a small threat of running will help.

My favorite Taylor move when he took of to run was the half-spin. He'd turn halfway around and then run a couple yards backwards before going down. Every time I about crapped my pants because I was just waiting for a linebacker to nail him in the back. Thankfully that didn't happen.

Maybe a little bit, but don't expect Michael Vick or anything,

Boy I sure hope he can move. Those immobile quarterbacks suck. Remember that guy from Tennessee a few years back that moved like a statue??? What was his name again? Wonder where he is now???

Are you implying that Taylor is as good as Manning?

No, he's implying that you don't have to be super mobile to be a good QB, obviously. You just have to know how to move in the pocket, which Taylor has gotten better at in his career.

Thanks Dave.

I believe that many of the problems (or breakdowns) from the QB spot were due to the first option not open. Taylor usually played it safe by tucking and running back to the line (wobbly). Hopefully whoever earns the job can see the field more easily.

 

I know nothing about Keller. I think he only started 8 Div 1A games? And I hear Heisman talk and all that. I will gladly throw Ganz into the mix. The QB spot will be a battle.

I think our receivers were having trouble getting off of press coverage as well.

if our quarterback is scrambling, then we're gonna need some serious offensive line work done pronto.

Ganz vs. Keller?

 

 

I don't that's an honest contest. Keller has NFL tools, Ganz is a college-backup. I mean no offense, but Ganz was meant to hold a clipboard.

 

 

Keller should be just fine...
