What I'm saying is eye test. Call all the gimmick offense you want, can't win in this league unless you can sit in the pocket and pass. Until you beat me, I'm holding you there. That's Chavis' philosophy against spread teams - small fast LBs.

Put a FRESHMAN db against Evans a first round pick and he stops him because he is long enough to make Manziel pass the ball. IDGAF what his stars were against anyone else. When Chavis figured it out after a quarter and a half the first game, he did zilch against LSU. Why? Because these QBs are flukes of a fluke system that when you hold them in the pocket, they show their true colors. In Manziels case, was zero ability to sit in the pocket and beat you. Exactly why he was drafted so late.

Why was Chavis so good against that fluke offense? Go watch the LSU defense from 2011 and what they did to Deriv Thomas from Oregon and WVU. Yeah old dude from WVU, Geno Smith, put up yards, but at the end of the day he threw somethings like 60 times and got whipped. Not many points compared to LSU throttling their arse on National TV.
See TTU versus LSU last year for the reason and y'all former OC, getting run over.
Here is a reminder of what Manziel did.
LSU smacking JMs arse 2 years in a row.
