I enjoy good QB play anytime I can get it. and Arkansas always seems to find the prototypical pocket QB I'd give my left arm to see at LSU. I sure hope Coach O can find at least one of those guys.




For years I've been saying that with LSU's rushing attack if they just threw the TE Waggle into the mix they'd turn into an offensive juggernaut.

Just have the TE release and roll the QB out to extend the play and give the TE time to get ten yards downfield. Its a high percentage throw and if the QB gets pressured he's already outside the tackle box and can chuck it into the cheap seats.

If y'all find and develop a good pocket QB then LSU could score on anyone.

As we stand right now, Fitz (MSU) has to be number one in my back. He carried that team best he could. Can throw and run.

Are you really trying to convince people that Hurts didn't cost Bama the title game?


No I'm not, he didn't do enough for Bama to win the title game. But he was not the only one.

I'm trying to convince people that he's going to be one of the best quarterbacks in the SEC again next year. Everybody thinks he sucks because he didn't have a good game against the best team in the country. But I guess hope springs eternal on this board, and he's just a system scrub who's been 'figured out'.

I'm pretty sure it's against the rules to use the TE's in the passing game.

Les miles wouldn't know a tight end if Tony Gonzalez slapped him in the face. Been saying it for years.

LEs recruited countless 4-star TEs only to have them block and basically never be a part of the passing game. Truly was astonishing. A TE with talent should be a true safety valve for a QB and for years and years here it was a 3rd or 4th option at best on pretty much any passing play.

Glad we have Canada now, he certainly will get more work to the TEs we have. People will honestly start to wonder about these new names popping up like Jamal Pettigrew, Foster Moreau or Jacory Washington. We never used them before but will this season.

It wasn't just one game. He was bad against LSU, bad against UF and complete shite against Washington as well.

No. We think he sucks because he couldnt pass worth a shite against a decent defense.

Against top 50 defenses here were his passing numbers:


LSU: 10/19(52%), 107 yards, 0 TD/1 INT

Auburn: 27/36 (75%), 286 yards. 2TD/2INT

Florida: 11/20 (55%), 138 yards, 1TD/ 0 INT

Washington: 7/14 (50%), 57 yards, 0TD/O INT

Clemson: 13/31 (42%), 131 yards, 1TD/ 0 INT

Average

56%, 144 yards per game, 0.8 tds, 0.6 ints

Sad but true. Y'all have good tight ends down there too and they'd be wide open if they released from the line of scrimmage a few times a game.

True Freshman. If he continues like this for the next two years, you will definitely have a point. But it still boggles my mind how you are convinced that he will show little to no progression at all.

I'll say it again. HE WILL LIKELY IMPROVE OVER SPRING BECAUSE PRACTICE MAKES PLAYERS BETTER.

But to sit here and act like he's great is just blind homerism. If he played for anyone but Bama and had identical numbers y'all would harp on how he was subpar. Over 1/3 of his completions, 35.24%, are from behind the line of scrimmage. Again, any Joe QB can take the snap and sling it to a WR on a bubble screen, swing pass, or a 5-10 yard dart. But since he plays for Bama he's God's gift to earth.

For all I know, he'll come out of spring practice slinging it like Brett Favre. I'm just saying, as of last year, his numbers are egregiously inflated due to his running ability, dink-n-dunk passing, letting play makers do all the work, and had the luxury of a great o-line.

that may be true for the most part but Colin Jeter is right up there with hester as my most feared tigers of all time. It wasn't like they made plays all the time but by god if it didn't seem like they made it everytime you guys needed one
