[QUOTE="dressedcheeseside, post: 113749, member: 77"] Our offense has succeeded this year for a lot of reasons. A qb that fits the system and operates it lightning quick, an OL that's both big and athletic and "knows where to go." A stable of senior Abacks who know how to block the edge. A stud sr wr that came out of nowhere like manna from heaven and a pretty good complement in another tall, fast, athletic wideout. But just isolating the relationship between OL and qb, who deserves more credit and which deserves more blame last year? Many say Vad had issues, but the OL was terrible and that compounded his issues. Others, like me, say the OL was good the year before with a sr Tevin, how did they all of a sudden become crappy? Imo, the qb is the linchpin in our offense. He makes everything go and makes everyone else, better... or worse. Most of JT's success is due to how quickly he operates the basics of the offense and how he, with his legs mostly, puts pressure on the defense. Vad was a darn good athlete, but he was slow in how he operated the offense. He didn't attack the pitch key and we were "slow played" to death. My point is not to attack Vad, but to point out how a pure option qb is so necessary for the success of this offense and how his performance makes the OL's job either 10x easier or 10x harder to perform. I believe our OL is better this year, but not so much so that it is the primary reason for our success. JT gets that award. [/QUOTE]
