Scrimmage #2

And? That’s Based off of last year, doesn’t mean we don’t have anyone on the other side. Different staff, different offense. All everyone talked about is our OL needed to get better, we moved our 2 best lineman from last year to the right side. That hopefully tells me our OL got better, not that this staff is planning our entire scheme off of 1 left handed QB who may or may not start.

I think its a scheme around controlling the ball and making over-aggressive defenses pay. Like I said earlier we won't be a deep ball team this year, so you don't need to have a strong left side.

Tell that to the QB after he swallows his mouthpiece. I think you are over thinking it. Our OL needed to be better and all we are hearing is that it has gotten much better, make sense that 2 of our better lineman are now on the right side of an improved OL.

Tell that to the QB

Pretty sure most QB's would be licking their chops throwing short routes and screens instead of deep 50/50 balls.

Im pretty sure most QB’s would be licking their chops with good protection regardless of the play call. You either are good at LT or you aren’t..there is no..this guy can hold for short routes and screens...the other teams best DE will burn you and kill your QB. You don’t think we will have to ever go down field in a season? Our QB’s have spent the last 3 years running for their lives or getting hit. The left side will be improved, if this staffs plan going into the season is to have a weak left side and dink and dunk we hired the wrong guy. I don’t think we hired the wrong guy. We will have the road graders on the right and pass protection on the left.

I will be watching this OL group closely. If we have an OL like the past few years a winning season is probably unattainable. I really hope we have upgraded the tackle spots so we can run passing routes that take longer to develop.

Not saying we will start Rudy on the left side Adrian Goodacre & Ken Marks are some big ole boy and can hold thier own just though it was strange move

UL’s O-line will need to show vast improvements in pass blocking if this team hopes to surpass preseason predictions. If Nunez is the starting QB, his biggest flaw last season was holding onto the ball for too long. He won’t stay healthy for long if that trend stays the same.

With good protection that becomes a strength. When you have no protection it will appear the QB is holding on to it too long. A good QB has a clock in his head of how long the plays take to develope, it’s wasn’t his fault the OL’s clock was half of that. I rather a guy who isn’t scared to take the hit and holds onto it to let the play develope than one who chunks it early because he is scared to take a hit. It’s probabky the most used cliches of the game but there is a reason coaches use them, “it all starts up front” “Games are won in the trenches” and it’s true on both sides of the ball.

Are there any questions y’all want answered tomorrow?

Thanks for getting my question in

Thanks for getting my question in

No problem, I tried to get in a bunch of the questions

The Elijah Mitchell and third down questions I suggested were asked. Here are the answers. Mitchell did participate and was tackled to the ground. He apparently did well and came out injury free. Third down work did occur and the first teams did very well in that regard which is to be expected. He wished the 2nd units would have been more effective. When the top units went against each other, his answer was they each had their moments.
