re: J.K. Dobbins Deserved the Invitation

he didn’t drop 2 TDs. He dropped one at the 12 yard line and 1 in the end zone. Neither were good passes.

Only a troll would claim dobbins didn’t possibly drop 2 td passes.

That screen pass specifically was a good pass ( much better than the typical Fromm pass to running backs) by any reasonable eye and he had blockers and a lot of green grass in front of him.

If you truly can’t tell the difference between a single wild cat play and a series of normal plays, you don’t know football or math well enough to participate on this board.

Lol. Alright genius.

Describe a wildcat play for me. Go ahead and share your knowledge. Keep in mind that I will rip you apart for your failed semantics.

direct snap to the runner.

Not quite there yet.

Do you want to be more specific? Or is that your answer?

I've already posted a link to the video. It was a perfectly thrown ball. Dobbins tried to run before he caught the ball and he had a wall of blockers. With his speed and ability he would have easily scored. That's a dropped TD as far as I'm concerned.

The second pass hit him in the hands. He made the catch. He simply dropped it when he went to the ground.

I dare you to post a video showing that both passes were bad and were Fields fault. You don't have the guts to do it because you know I'm right.

Fields did not lead him on the pass and threw it too hard to his back shoulder. He was on the 20 yard line when he actually dropped it. #35 from Clemson was on backside pursuit and one on the Clemson LBs had already beaten a block and gained contain. It’s possible he could have broken some tackles and scored, but it was nowhere near a certainty. A better leading throw would have helped though. Just like the other drop that actually was in the end zone. Dobbins was wide open. A little more touch and he goes in walking.

Dobbins didn’t have to reach for the ball or wait for the ball. It was well placed and timed by any reasonable measure.

Once again, here's the video. It was a perfectly thrown screen pass. He dropped it because he tried to run it before he caught it. Even Herbstreit said he had a convoy of blockers. With his talent he scores or at least gets down near the goal line. Even Day knew they had them dead to rights, from his reaction.

If you're going to be completely disingenuous then there is no point in even having this discussion.

First: the wildcat is a formation. Not a play.


The play we do out of the wild cat formation is a direct snap to the runner.

---

So you cant admit that the wildcat is a formation and not a play.

Can you admit what makes the wildcat a formation (unique to other formations)?

quote:

---

All that matters in regards to the discussion is fields was often inserted for single runs out of the wild cat, which helps prove my point.

---

So the wildcat is a formation (not a play).
And what makes the wildcat unique is that it will be a direct snap to an athlete other than the QB (running back like Sony/Swift, WR, or DB). It is usually a running play because... it isnt a QB.

Does this sound vaguely familiar to you?

When uga employs the wild cat formation, we snap it to the runner:

- In 2017, we utilized Sony/Chubb for this play.
- In 2018, we utilized fields for this play.

Our starting qb doesn’t handle the ball on these plays.

So you still want to call it a wildcat play despite it not being a wildcat formation. What happened to facts and logic?

And instead of owning up to your mistake, you backtrack by claiming that Fields isnt the starting QB as if that magically makes him a running back like Sony/Swift.

Your ego clouds your ability to be taken seriously on here.
Facts and logic. Too funny.
