TVD is the problem

Advertisement
Besides tvd and the wrs
The other glaring issue is that our Rb can not make house calls
In gattis offense allot of the chunk plays have to be runs
For example that play towards the end when Parrish got the corner a guy like achane keeps running and we’re having a different conversation

How many drops were there today? I'm sincerely asking. Obviously, the Smith drop at the end sealed it. Is there anywhere I can find this stat?

I remember 3 drops. Someone said 6 but I don't think that is anything but embellishment. I would say I'd go back and watch the game to count but I'd be lying.
 
This is what I think, I think TVD had the flu last week and is still fighting it.
Thus the slow progression, off throws and no running. Just sayin

Ha. I'm trying to go through all the incompletions. I'm sure I missed something. In the next few days, I'll find em and update.

Garcia could be better. We just don’t know how well he can read defenses and work through his progressions.

But his release is faster and he’s a certified gunslinger. He will take chances and not second guess himself, which could lead to a few more turnovers, but I’d be willing to take the risk if TVD struggles next week heading into our bye.

I hate to ask this, but what about Matocha?

you guys sound nuts. I made a comment about Garcia but lets be real. there were eat least 6 bad drops. the Parrish drop was a td, brashard keeps us alive. there was a timing issue but our wrs cant get open, run slow and bad routes, and made drops. cant blame it all on him especially 2nd half

He stares down receivers, which leads coverage to his targets. He doesn't throw receivers open. Mario will not pull him but I hope he doesn't come back next season

I Def think you could see last night there is a lot of work to still be done. I know many are angry cause we could of won that game minus the miscues. But I was kinda encouraged to see our offense could dominate an SEC opponent on the line of scrimmage. I think Mario will be alright in the long term but he said day 1 in press conference it will take some time to build. Culture is changing and the players have some fight to them.. I think the passing game will catch up and become more balance..just not this year...

This was my takeaway as well.

This is a MUCH tougher football team on both sides.

We have to play with better focus and discipline, but the heart is there. The secondary was very encouraging and even Ivey played well. He is a different guy when you let him put hands on the receiver consistently.

It took Gattis 6 games to get his offense up and running at Michigan. They hit a nice stride then got exposed by Ohio State and Alabama. Hopefully he can be a little more flexible so we win while installing the offense.

You first-level thinkers are always so tiresome. There should be a high-IQ premium board here so more cogent men can avoid you knuckle-draggers who lack the cognitive ability to think in terms of things beyond your binary comfort-box. I understand this is genetic, poor genes passed down from limited bloodlines. However, at least try and understand many things can be true at once, and even more importantly many things are the result of many other things. This is not like your morning decision on whether to continue to lay in your fecal-soiled sheets or rise up and wash yourself.

Hard to overcome incredibly poor QB play and soft WRs in the red zone.

He was bad against Southern Miss and he was bad tonight.

Right now TVD is the problem for this offense.

TVD has not thrown the ball well on deep and crossing routes. The second issue is clearly lack of speed at WR. Thirdly Gattis play calling wasn't strategic. Next, Mallory is a JAG.

TVD did not play well. I get the hype coming into this season. Especially with how he ended last szn. That said, we all saw the slow starts from last and those struggles..last night he missed a some throws and on others really didn’t give guys a chance downfield. Had a couple key drops too. But a few times he missed targets..especially the one for 83 on that deep crosser..as a whole tho it’s the whole passing game..the TVD top 10 pick needs to be gone for this szn as of right now

I thought Mallory played well. I think we have to feature him more downfield. He’s not a jag..a jag plus
 
Said forever that this game would rest completely on TVD's shoulders. He did enough TO win the game but HE didn't WIN the game.

Not excusing the atrocious WR play or that we insanely have a team where Restrepo is WR 1 (I love X but that's unacceptable recruiting/development wise) but a big time Heisman hopeful QB puts the team on his shoulders and wins that game on his own last night no matter what.

Was very encouraged by the o-line play (sans a few mental errors) last night so I'd definitely like to see a few games where TVD is the clear difference before we go to Clemson or even finish with Pitt.
