Fromm's night

First 3 possessions he looked like 88 Joe Montana. 7-8 for 89 yards and a TD. Also had a 60 yard reception called back on a holding.
Rest of the game he looked like 2015 Grayson Lambert. 8-15 for 64 yards.
Fromm was really locked in to start the game. The TD pass and then the bomb to Robertson were both ridiculous. After that he was sloppy and had shitty pocket presence and goofy footwork like the LSU game.
Fromm is still the man. In his defense Vandy was playing their safeties deep and just trying not to lose by a thousand. Fromm's performance was still disappointing tonight, however. His 30th career start and a crappy conference opponent. I guess I just expected more.

He placed the ball on the money. He allowed for the WRs to make plays and they didn’t.
I honestly think it’s a game plan issue

Yep. But the man may be overrated. With that offensive line and running backs, he should be able to dissect defenses anywhere on the field. A couple of weeks of practice games coming up and then we'll see how he looks when we get into the heart of the schedule.

I wouldn’t put too much stock into tonight’s game. It was a feeling out process type game and we still won 30-6. A lot of this shite was basic meh... we had no reason to press and score 50. If Kirby wanted to, he could though. I also think he and Mason are close friends and they both knew what each other had... not that it was a mutual agreement... but you could kinda tell that they both were just using this as a glorified scrimmage. As a side note: If Mason is fired at seasons end, it wouldn’t surprise me if he was hired here.

Coley is Chaney 2.0! This will burn the Dawgs down the road. They looked good in the first half and sloppy and too conservative. Let's hope they get it together.

He’s still getting used to these receivers. It’s not normal for a third-year starter quarterback to be breaking in 4-5 new receiving targets and a new center.
Fromm’s the glue right now and that’s a different role for him from years past. I think he’ll grow through it, but Robertson and Pickens need to step up to become true reliable weapons.
Pickens needs to be our Holloman and Robertson needs to be our Hardman.

Most of the mistakes were not Fromms fault.
He did miss on the two endzone passes to Pickens.
And he had 2 balls tipped.
But any other issues on the offense tonight were not Fromm (Simmons dropped and didn't fight for a ball when fromm had to release it early. Robertson batted a ball down intended for the 5 yard line and another receiver. Jackson fumbled on the 5. Holding calls killed a long pass play and forced another drive to take a field goal.)
Fromm deserves some criticism. But I was disappointed in Simmons and Trey Hill as far as expectations on starters more than anyone.

Pruitt showed the template for Fromm last year. Stunts in the middle and blitzes from the corners. Jake hasn't gotten to the point where he can consistently make teams pay for that. And it seems like his ability to sidestep the rush and make a play has regressed since his freshman year. He'll see it all season long.

Fromm lost a lot of production, and it will take some time to get to mid-season form with new WRs.
Should be fun watching him develop further rapport with these guys the next couple of games.

We all know the o line can grade a path for anyone but tonight they got confused a few times in pass protection on picking up vandy’s Stunts and twists and Fromm got lit up and couldn’t make the pass he wanted to.

Did it ever occur to the brain trust that Fromm wasn’t, likely by coach decree, going to take anything that wasn’t there? The only way we lose this game is turnovers and cheap TDs. Fromm missed a few throws, but also intelligently managed the game. He also put us into a lot of good running plays at the line.
I was really encouraged by our receivers. Lots of speed and size. I think this group will gel into the best we have ever had.

Looks like Jordan Rogers is all in on the Fromm Train, Peyton Manning comparison and all. Agree with PB, I think they had zero intentions to open up the playbook last night, and we caught some flashes here and there of what the O can look like as these WR settle in.

Yeah, Im not going to be critical on Fromm after last night. You could tell that Kirby told Coley to pump the breaks after the first three scores(thats another subject to be discussed). I think Fromm was 8/12 at half and 8/13 after the third quarter, so its not good for consistency to only have him throw the ball once in the third.
It was just a weird game overall. We were never in a position to worry, and their offense really didnt do anything to us that wasnt really self inflicted, and we still only gave up 6 points, and they were never that close to the end zone. I just wish Kirby would say frick it and bury teams instead of going all conservative.

Why throw when you can hand it off and get 10 yards a carry
