His arm is legit. He’ll throw open more guys with his strength vs under throwing (particularly deep). If we can snag any deep threat in the portal, the offense would get a boost.
Then he scored on his second drive and gets the bench.Honestly, with QB play, I wonder if we have to start looking at who is coaching the QBs and who is running the offense. I think that INT was nerves, throw the guy in against OU in a crucial situation, it's a tough spot. Tougher when you have one of the best Running backs in the country, but your first series in the game, while the line is getting blown up, our OC calls ******* pass plays. Yeah, OU probably wasn't expecting it, but they had no problem getting pressure on any play we ran before that.
It's like taking a rookie fireman and dousing him in gasoline, then saying, "Here's a cup of water, go put out that fire." It's not like Purdy hasn't made that same mistake over and over. Does anyone on the staff sit down with them and say, "Quit ******* doing that."?
Manning is a ******* moron and should be fired for that first series with Hunter alone, let alone all the other **** the guy has ****** up.
That INT was a big disappointment. He was frustrated with Kolar's route. To make him look bad he throws down field in play where there was no chance of a reception.
Chase Allan made him look good with his YAC TD.
I am not sold on him.
Also don’t have a QB with the arm strength to get it down there. Probably plays into the game plan.I agree. We need better receivers before a new QB. No downfield threats this year to speak of.
Agreed. Not to mention, Bouman. Just because nobody is discussing him on here doesn’t mean he isn’t or won’t be good, push Dekkers or hold down the back up position for the foreseeable future.I dont know why some are so sold on this Rocco kid. I've watched some of his film and I don't see how he is better than dekkers. Dekkers will be in his 3rd year of this program next year, and he has 4 Td drives in his limited action.
That drive took multiple 4th down situations, a fake punt, and miracle catch by Breece… he will be fine and his play was quite admirable given the situation but that wasn’t exactly a world beater to keep your starter on the bench IMO.Then he scored on his second drive and gets the bench.
The receivers bailed him out with great catches on that drive. His throws overall were not very accurate.Then he scored on his second drive and gets the bench.
Compared to fumbling it for a TD? Or missing a wide open Allen for a game tying TD?The receivers bailed him out with great catches on that drive. His throws overall were not very accurate.
