C N Red Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Just sharing what my peepers have been seeing LYONS. Why would Martinez switch to safety with Osborne, Cassidy, Stafford, and Jackson being very capable players? I can't really see Martinez laying the wood as a DB by any means/Intensity on Defense. He's a QB. The scary thing is, he's only going to get better. I can't explain to you how much experience is valued in college football. The Kid is going to be a playmaker and hopefully Beck will actaully utilize his skill set and call some play-action passes, roll-outs, bootlegs. Exciting. With the fact of Martinez breaking a smile.I guess it's a lot harder to be sarcastic over the internet. I think someone should alert TM. I think we have a stage 5 here!! Quote Link to comment

Exciting. I think the last time we saw Taylor's out-of-pocket decision making, he flipped it forward into the face of a Washington defender, and then caught his own pass for a loss. Hope he improves a lot this spring. Quote Link to comment

Spartness Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 T.M. would be a dangerous weapon rolling out and running bootlegs ... the problem is he hasn't shown he can do those things and can only throw in the pocket. My concern is ... does he have the natural instinct to execute those plays? I fear this may be an ability that either you have it or you don't and that coaching and practice may not be enough. I hope I'm totally wrong. He would be a huge threat if he could learn to execute those plays. Quote Link to comment

He had some flashes last year of being capable of rolling out of the pocket, and making an accurate pass on the move. The one that stands out to me from the big 12 CG, on the 4th down play when he rolled out and threw a pretty ball to McNeill. That being said, Watson failed to call nearly enough plays that allowed him to move around in the pocket. Quote Link to comment
The Architect Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Have you seen Charles Jackson throw a ball yet? Not saying he'll compete for QB, but he's a weapon on offense too which is way he was named Mr.Versatility. I guess that can wait till his sophomore year to become well-rounded to the Husker ways?
