Blake's mobility and escapability are terrific. Wish we could get a gif of him juking those two FAU defenders. His accuracy was very good also. His biggest problem right now is he isn't "the general" of the offense.
Coker was very nervous at first and was probably trying to do too much. But even after he settled down he still had a couple really bad throws. He overthrew Cam Sims (the tallest receiver we've got) by about a foot. I don't like his throwing motion but I don't think it's a problem. I liked the way he stands into his throws even when he's under pressure. Athleticism is very good but not as elusive as Sims.
We have two good quarterbacks, but I'm not sure if it's 1a, 1b or if it's 1,2

I think we've gotta remember that some of the mistakes Coker made, Sims made vs WVU. Then Sims looked a lot better in the next game. If Coker shows similar improvement next week, both QBs may go for 250 vs Southern Miss

No doubt Coker has a strong arm, but he isnt accurate. That is why it took him substantially longer to get the ball to the WRs on the bubble screens compared to Blake. He short arms/winds up on short throws because when he slings it, the ball is inaccurate.
