Mercer game replay

Probably the WatchESPN app

Thanks to both. Doing it now although I'm not sure why.

Why?

You into s & m?

Leonard should be a starter, IMO

I like that he finds the football when its in the air and not face shielding the WR like Davis twins do

Yep. Rare to see an Auburn DB actually play the ball instead of the receiver's eyes.

After this rewatch I'm more convinced than before we're a 7-5 team. If stidham can't get rid of the ball against mercer with zero pressure then we are fricked against any defense with a pulse.

Not me. I fully expect Stidham to continue to improve with experience. I also expect Chip will continue to improve as a play caller with this personel. I guess we'll see.

lol

Why would you expect not?

Bit of both, plus our route tree is unbelievably predictable. Stidham has done a poor job of anticipating and throwing receivers open. We've had some trouble with WR's getting open, though that is mainly when all are just running go routes. We are doing nothing to help the WR's run off defenders, like crossing or pick routes or anything.

Those things combined and we have what we've seen with Stidham taking forever to throw the ball.

Gus thinks he can trick the defense to get receivers open. He doesn't rely on route running or overloading receiving options. If they don't bite on his play action, the pass play is going to be in trouble.
