[QUOTE="DawgCatcher, post: 111764, member: 1944"] Our average scoring drive time last night against FSU with primarily running the TO and only minimal passing if any was around 5 minutes per drive for paydirt. FSU's prolific passing scoring drives were on average around 3 minutes or less per paydirt. Our D was stopping them in field goal range and denying them TD's in the entire 2nd half. Simply doing the math, the coach should be prepared a little earlier in the 4th quarter to pull out the 2-minute Offense drill when it was clear our D was denying them the end zone, but we needed some quick points because we were falling behind and time was becoming a critical factor. With potentially 10 minutes of TO Offense needed in a 15-minute quarter to win a ballgame if FSU goes up by two scores, wouldn't it behoove a coach to consider implementing his two-minute offense a little sooner??? This, to me, is a limitation of the TO Offense that has to be reckoned with if we want to get to the next level with it, especially when you play against prolific fast-scoring offenses like FSU and UGA with field-goal kickers who never miss. Byerly's 2-minute Offense drill against Duke was highly effective at getting two quick scores, but it was employed a little late because JT took too long to take himself out of the game when he was clearly playing injured in that ballgame. If PJ had taken JT out sooner than later, I have no doubt in my mind, with the way Byerly was throwing the 2-minute drill, we would have won that game against Duke. I really would like to see Byerly get more opportunities for 2-minute drill offense when we need it in emergency situations. He can rifle that ball with pinpoint accuracy. I was highly impressed with his throwing ability. Yes, he's not a scrambler or as quick-footed as JT, but he's a deadly accurate passer in the pocket and can clearly be a game-changer. UGA has played two quarterbacks before with good success. There is no reason we can't do the same, especially in emergency situations. [/QUOTE]
