I caught it, it's all in good fun
. As far as an upgrade I'm too much of a novice to accurately assess that outside of seeing how we perform in the run game and how many sacks we give up. I'm sure it's way more nuance to it.
I prefer poach-worthy rather than poachable.
On I think the first interception, Dontae had drifted out into the flat and was wide open. He'll see that in the film and learn from it. He had a bad game but threw the ball pretty well. He's our QB. Seems to me to throw better running to his right than his left, but maybe that's natural for a right-hander. He's made some stellar plays and will be even better next year...
10 drops with some bad throws and its humble pie time for King and offense.
I wouldn’t say he had a bad game. He had the game expected behind an OLine that was atrocious. He had no time to read anything. And when a QB can’t read the field he throws picks. I’m not saying he played good, but if we had played a mid level ACC team today we probably would have won. Our OLine was just overwhelmed which cause our skilled players to appear to play poorly. It will be amazing next week when our skilled players play so much better.
On top of the oline being overwhelmed Clemson was playing mostly tight m2m coverage and we couldn't get separation. Maybe he made some bad reads but the throws that he was making were to tightly covered receivers and safety help. Having some larger receivers and pass catching TE's I think would help.
Maybe a good learning experience for Buster too.
The recievers need to make better route adjustments . On one c interception, reciever was running w his defender on left hip. He kept running right towards the deep safety. Throw was to right and would have been completion if he broke off route . Qb and wr need to both read the defense and adjust. The throw went past wr and the safety who was running caught at chest level.
Well, SWGA opines the obligatory "it's all the offensive linemen's fault."
Yeah, our coaching staff is a total cookie cutter staff for the current trend of the day. Our playbook is what you get when you google “Basic college offense for the early 2020’s”. We now run the UGA-lite offense with 3-4 stars. I love all the pre-snap motion that doesn’t confuse anyone but our own players half the time. When you go shotgun on every play regardless of the down, distance, and score you know you are just collecting a paycheck. Does Key not understand this is his one shot, while Faulkner will have job after job? I know Key remembers the Friedgen and O’Leary offenses when we went from multiple sets in both the gun and under center. Have we done one reverse or one pitch all year? We have 2 special speedsters in Rutherford and Singleton and we don’t get them in space at all.
I have so many problems with this post.
No one called our OLine “incompetent loafers”. Those are your words. But they are clearly the weakest link on the team. They are fine for a .500 team. I hope Key wants to be better than .500 at some point.
No problem. Isn’t that the beauty of an open discussion?
