[QUOTE="Techster, post: 243348, member: 360"] This. We're well past the days of a one dimensional QB who chucks it in the air and hopes our freak WR comes down with it. Imagine what kind of trouble we would have been in against BC had JeT just chucked it up and not played within our passing concepts. JeT made some fantastic throws because he's a good passer as well as good at running our option. I don't miss the days of Nesbitt heaving it downfield and hoping Demaryius or one of our undersized ABs comes down with it...or watching the ball sail beyond anyone's reach. If you really want to see Defenses sell out against our run, just insert a QB who's a terrible passer and watch even more defenders crowd the box. This offense at the P5 level needs a QB that's a legitimate passer. Taquan is a terrific athlete, and he can probably be just as good as JeT running our ground game, but he's not a very good passer from what I've seen of his HS tape and last spring game. One thing I hear over and over again from QB coaches and offensive coordinators on all levels is you can teach a QB to read defenses, help them improve arm strength, and even anticipate throwing windows...but you can't teach a QB accuracy during a live play. It can be improved somewhat, but consistent accuracy is innate. I think MJ is our QB in 2017, and either Lucas Johnson or a recruit we haven't even signed yet is our QB in 2018. [/QUOTE]
