Rosier accuracy will improve, 58% rate & 650 yards rushing 8 tds is the goal..

All this Malik freak out stuff does remind me a lot of Brock being named the starter going into the 2004 season. Everyone was screaming for Kyle Wright. (Careful what you wish for) But Brock was BAD in '03. Outside the 2d half vs. UF that year he was really atrocious. It's amazing that team was as good as it was, all on defense and the run game.

Brock was a streaky passer and was best in a shot gun formation in hurry up mode. That comeback against Florida in the OB was classic Brock. If Coker/Chud would have used that as their watershed moment (like Bowden realized with Ward) to make a switch to a hurry up type offense in shot gun Brock would have been one of our most prolific passers in hurricanes history I bet.

Ol Bleak has seen this narrative before. I told yall we would be better with Rosier at the helm then we were with Kaaya and some of yall rode with me some didnt. We are better with him then Kaaya. Rosier is a gamer not a guy whos gonna wow you in practice, I called that two years ago. I saw that throw during practice hes not good on the run like many have stated but history shows he will improve his accuracy.

Last year was his first year starting QB. Here are other 1st year starting Qb's who are Rosiers size and arent the most accurate that have improved their 2nd year starting

Trace McSorley 58% to 67%
Mckenzie Milton 57% to 67%
Drew Lock 49% to 58%(well he is 6'4)

Lets go back to Richt's Qb's at Georgia

Matt Stafford 52%- 61%
Aaron Murray 59%- 65%
Even DJ Shockley only has 56% completion rate in his 10-2 season

With a healthy Ahmon Richards I believe Rosier will increase his throwing percentage to at least 58% this season which is more then good enough to win 10 games

The most important thing for Rosier and richt need to do is run Rosier more and get more creative with his designed runs, not the same running play that we ran with 4-5 wrs in shotgun and he takes it up the mddle that every team knew was coming at the end of the year. We cannot afford Rosier starting off 1-8 in any games this year. RUn him more in the beginning of the games!! He is more confident when he is getting postive runs. We have to have a more mobile Rosier so that teams will focus on that part of his game and then we can hit them over the top, on the outside and to the tight ends over the middle.

Rosier ran for 468 yards last year and 5 tds

If he can boost that number up to 650- 700 yards and 8 tds I believe it will keep the defense off balance enough especially on 1st and 3rd downs for Rosier to have an all ACC type season. and get us to 10-2 in the ACC championship Game.

I believe Rosier tailed off during the second half due to teams knowing what Richt is gonna do and 2nd rosier and Richards not being completely healthy. I think this season is all on Richt and his play calling. I believe... do you?

Glad to be back, I cant do the crooting threads anymore its too predictable and easy for me to know whats gonna happen. See you phaggots in Dallas
Idc what numbers he puts up as long as he could get Miami 11 plus wins I’ll take it.
 
We are winning 10 games and playing for the ACCCG even if Rosier plays like he did last year. But I do expect Rosier to improve a lot from last season which is why i got us winning the ACC, undefeated playing in the CFB playoffs.
 
I keep coming back to this, but here's his Home/Road completion % :

Home - 60.7%, 75%, 62.2%, 60.5%, 50%, 62.5%, 53.6%, 42.3% - 59.4% Total
Road
- 57.7%, 43.2%, 42.1%, 44.1%, 48.3% - 46.2% Total

Malik, and the whole offense really, has to get things cleaned up on the road this year.
 
Exactly! What people miss is that 26 passing TD’s is a lot. It’s 3rd down efficiency that needs to improve most. Random completions don’t necessarily help.

57.7% - Duke
43.2% - FSU (based only on attempts; Malik needed 6 more completions to get to 58%)*
62.2% - GT
60.5% - Syracuse
42.1% - UNC (356 yds! based only on attempts; Malik needed 6 more completions to get to 58%)
50.0% - VT (based only on attempts; Malik needed 2 more completions to get to 58%)
62.5% -
53.6% - UVA (based only on attempts; Malik needed 1 more completions to get to 58%)
44.1% - Pitt (based only on attempts; Malik needed 4 more completions to get to 58%)
48.3% - Clemson (based only on attempts; Malik needed 3 more completions to get to 58%)
42.3% - WI (based only on attempts; Malik needed 4 more completions to get to 58%)

Malik completes 19 more passes and he’s theoretically at 58% (assuming any of these come on third down and Miami has a minimum of 4 more plays)

Rosier - 51.5% P5 for the year; 5 games under 50% (FSU, UNC, Pitt, Clemson, WI); avg 32 passes/game
Hurts - 56% P5 for the year; only one game under 50% (UGA) but he normally only threw 20 passes/game
Fromm - 62.8% P5 for the year; 2 games under 50% (UT, Auburn); avg 20 passes/game
Hornibrook - 60.6% P5 for the year; 2 games under 50% (MI, OSU); avg 22 passes/game
Bryant - 65.2% P5 for the year; 0 games under 50%; avg 30 passes/game
Costello - 60.4% P5 for the year; 2 games under 50%; avg 20 passes/game
Hill - 64.6% P5 for the year; 2 games under 50%; avg 32 passes/game
Stidham - 65.0% P5 for the year; 1 game under 50% (LSU, 34.6%); avg 26 passes/game
Darnold - 64.0% only played P5 schools; 0 games under 50%; avg 34 passes/game
Mayfield - 69.8% P5 for the year; 0 games under 63%; avg 30 passes/game
Barrett - 61.5% P5 for the year; 2 games under 50%; avg 26 passes/game — 30 TD passes; 688 rush yards.

You also should factor in the number of easy passes dropped by our WRs last season. I’d venture to say it was more than 20.

See you in Dallas, not-so-bleakvern. I almost always agree with your posts (except gus the bus), and this one is no different,

Go Canes
 
Under rated post. His decision making has to improve. I do agree though that Rosier will be better. Hard for him not to be considering the weapons around him and all the guys we have returning.

To me % is less important than the passes he completes. It means nothing if his % goes up, but we still don't keep the chains moving, or he keeps missing BIG passes. 60% means nothing if he completes passes for 5 yards when we need 15. Here's hoping his % does go up, but it coincides with a much higher 3rd down conversion percentage.

To me it was never JUST his %, but rather the yards thrown away by not hitting guys in stride. That and what appeared to be him not seeing the field well and making bad decisions AND missing.

There's a lot he's going to have to improve upon to be the QB we need him to be. Here's hoping he does.
 
Brock was a streaky passer and was best in a shot gun formation in hurry up mode. That comeback against Florida in the OB was classic Brock.

Well a few years later we had Kirby Freeman running Todd Berry's Army offense.. that sure was fun. Nah Brock wouldn't have broken records, but we would have been a lot better.
 
. The run game will be more effective if Rosier has gotten more decisive with his reads.

Often times he kept the ball when he should have given it.

I would like to see us run more spread concepts. I think that will help our running game. We should never allow teams to load up the box on us.

It was especially frustrating to me against Wisconsin. We should have forced them to play in space, but instead we played in to their strengths.

We have a 200 lbs starting running back who is a beast, but on the small side. We have two freshman TE's, and a freshman FB. We have all-world talent at WR, and a mobile QB. It's a no-brainer to me that we should be spreading teams out more this season.
 
I can agree, but I'm a little more optimistic about the record. 11/12 games won. We have depth at the skill positions which will help him big time. thank about homer and dallas running over folks like they did last year. then you bring in Lingurd in the fourth fresh legs and all the receivers, man we got something.
 
Exactly, We don't need Chad Pennington/Rich Gannon going 7 for 10 on 3 yard outs, give me a guy that goes maybe 5 or 6 for 10, but ones a 50+ yard TD over those guys all day.

****, I'll take 3 for 10 if one of them's a TD. Throw the ball 50 times and we good.
 
Malik going to 58% means he completes 12 more passes than he did in 2017 (with the same number of throws of course). It does get us a few more 1st downs, but not convinced that wins us more games.

He really needs to go up to 62% (29 more completions) to make a meaniful impact or better yet increase his already decent yds/att which adds more value than completion %

Good to have you back.

Rosier will hit for 64% this year. The second year starting and being more comfortable in the system, with the WR, and his reads will pay off. He worked with his QB coach. Hearing that he went for anywhere close to 70% from the practice reports is a major improvement. Having two future NFL TE's (Yes they are freshman) as Dmoney and Stefan mentioned on the podcast will help big time.

I remember a few TE's that had breakout freshman seasons. One of them being Hunter Henry at Arkansas. They are more talented than that guy! Those two blankets will help with some of the completion rates as well.

Oh man so much optimism/homer shades on in this thread!!!

Rosie choked down the stretch last year and thanks to “insiders” like dmoney aka dummy everyone got on that rosie hype in the preseason
