Fall Camp News & Notes

Langsdorf said it wasn't clear at this point who the #2 QB is.

Not sure if that says more about Gebbia or POB

 

[Decked]

POB hasn't been playing nearly as well in the spring from reports

Probably a little of both.

Sam McKewon's take on POB from Aug. 4th. Pay particular attention to the bolded.

Quarterbacks: Lee has been excellent. Patrick O’Brien has to keep his footwork and mechanics tight; I saw a few tosses off his back foot, which made the ball sail. My read: O’Brien is perhaps a hair off his precision from late in the spring. Tristan Gebbia has savvy and, because he’s pretty slight, some athleticism outside the pocket that’s interesting. Gebbia puts his whole body into throwing deep out and corner routes. Andrew Bunch, an emergency quarterback, looks more than capable of throwing a pass in case someone loses his helmet.

It works just fine on reddit

I think it would work just fine here too but there would be some people that freak out.

Matty....

I thought the offense had a bad day? Good to hear, though.

 

[HuskerMan]

Won't be able to showcase that if the Oline doesn't get in gear.

Love the praise, but what intangibles do we think he gauged by watching practice?

Command of the team. Knowing the offense. Leadership.

I don't know how well he knows the offense, but he has the other two in spades.

Sounds good!

 

[Guy Chamberlin]

Is there any reason why this year's offensive line shouldn't be better than last years?

I'd also suggest that a more accurate passer willing to attempt shorter check down and outlet passes -- and less prone to improvised scrambles -- makes the OLs job easier.

No, they'll be better but that's a low bar. Talent and depth are better this year.

My personal opinion, based on what I've seen so far, is that Cav can teach pass pro pretty well. Run blocking is still a question mark for me. Hopefully the passing game being more efficient will help the run game.
