Will...

[Todd4State]

There were at least 7 or 8 times when Will didn’t throw intermediate routes that were wide ass open. I’m not talking about throwing vertical routes. I’m talking about the intermediate routes that were wide open all day and he either scrambled or checked it down or took a sack. He had a great completion % but if he is throwing them to the wrong targets that means little when we have 14 points on Louisiana tech through 3 quarters. He gets credit for hitting those routes in the 4th quarter but there is only so much credit to give when La Tech is the opponent. Just because I think he played really bad for a large portion of the game does not mean I think everyone else played well on offense. The penalties and fumbles by a guy who keeps getting free passes for fumbling in huge moments have to stop. It’s unacceptable.

That's what I see too. We need to start hitting those guys 10-15 yards downfield more. Like we did in the fourth quarter. That deep corner route was wide open several times and we even hit it some.

The play of our QB was not our biggest issue. Keep in mind that 2 incompletions were balls that were dropped. Turn overs, penalties, OL play and then QB. The 4th quarter come back, even considering the opponent, was impressive.

39/47 for 370 yards 3TD/1int
For you stat guys (7) - That's 83% @ 7.9 yds/att.
And some of you guys act like he's our weakness. I just can't understand it. Some of you boys need to go back and watch the Croom era - we have come a long ways. Heck go watch the joemo era....
When is the last time we had a qb do that and we thought they were below average? As a sophomore? Some of you forget how many passes dak would sail over the running backs on those little "dink and dunks"

And im not talking about Leachs scheme - that still needs work.

The issue with Will is arm strength. That's it. If he had KJ's arm, he'd be perfect. He is accurate. He make good decisions quickly most of the time. When he had time to throw late in the game he was very very good.

But even La Tech's safeties were only 12 yards deep and we only hit 2 passes longer than 12 yards in the air. That limits the offense to not be able to take the top off.

Will had a throw in the first quarter (i think), on a 8 yard out from the opposite hash. A long throw, and he had to put some air under it. But that's his max distance throw.

That keeps everything close in and the defense can play to keep everything in front of them. which limits big plays. Which makes us drive the field, and makes it even harder if we get behind the sticks.

And it's why I don't think he starts at the end of the year. When the game slows down for sawyer, he'll play..
