Mavric Posted September 10, 2022 Author Share Posted September 10, 2022 At first I thought he might actually be trying to hit the guy in the leg. And if it hits him more square instead of a glancing blow it bounces right back to us. But it was supposed to be a squib to the corner. Which is a great call. 1 Quote Link to comment
admo Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 A squib kick after the NW game is a super idea and perfect timing. No one remembers the onside call kick against NW. This is game 2! Just go for it, and be like, "what the hey...." 1 Quote Link to comment

Mavric Posted September 10, 2022 Author Share Posted September 10, 2022 Not the prettiest tackle. But effective. Dude is a crazy good athlete. Wouldn't mind seeing him on the field more. Quote Link to comment

I'm really thinking(hoping) his accuracy issues are from rust since he had that thumb injury so long and then missed time after surgery. I feel like he looked more accurate with the injury at times even last season so it's either rust or mental. Quote Link to comment

I'd say that it has more to do with reorientation back to normal functioning. Repetition with proper mechanics brings it around. Along with some residual physical issues working their way out too. It sounds like he had a bunch of corrective things done. I kind of wonder if what's going on with accuracy issues in later stages of games in particular might be due to some soreness and stiffness. It might take some time yet. 1 Quote Link to comment

People need to come to grips with the fact that he is a mediocre quarterback that was replaced for a freshman at a different school. Unless he beats Oklahoma then he's great and I take back everything. 1 Quote Link to comment

After my knee surgery I remember my feet were sore a lot in the later stages of rehab putting all that weight back on them, and obviously regaining flexibility is one of the hardest most painful parts so makes sense it would take some time in your hand also. 1 Quote Link to comment

I get this play, and it works as a misdirection. Gotta keep opposing D honest. But if we want our or left guard to pull and block the rushing opposite D end we need him to take giant step back and have eyes on his rushing end block…can he do it, athletically at all? Or is coaching/film going to teach him to get that depth and actually have that one job? These plays are fine to run, do we have the horses that can run them? Quote Link to comment

I love the chaz video plays, but Casey got rid of the ball in 3 seconds. Count to 3 and the ball is gone. Most other plays he gets rid of it sooner. "All the time he needed to see 8 defenders... " Um, no sport, this is a basic quick read, bang-bang play. Maybe the previous years it takes 5-8 seconds to make that decision and throw (err, "all the time needed to see 8 defenders...") I am sorry, because I know this is me being critical. I don't want the million average Joes thinking "HE HAD ALL THE TIME NEEDED!!!" Quote Link to comment

Manning needs to squeeze the second one more. It definitely qualifies as "creative" but we do a lot of work for a play that was only going to get a couple more yards even if we get those blocks. I forget who it was, but we ran this last season near the goal line and the WR absolutely lit his guy up. I love this wrinkle of running power by pulling the WRs across the formation.

Pulling a backside player to kick out the strong side DE on the pass pro and provide a deeper play action look. But if you're pulling then f#&%ing get there! Don't take your sweet time skipping down the line like you're on the way to 5th period french. Quote Link to comment
