Nix needs a lot of development. A LOT

So you’re saying he should transfer.

How do yall blame the Offense style or play call when ppl are open and Nix makes wrong read or can't hit wide open WR? How is the play call at fault for that?

Because he’s never put in a position to succeed. Half the time he’s only getting to pass on 3rd and long or he’s being asked to throw to a predetermined receiver. They could feed him an easy slant every now and then.

We threw our one slant for the game already.

The last qb allowed to make decisions was Marshall. So it's not that.

The thing about Marshall was he took matters into his own hands. If the play call didn’t work, he created his own play, whether it was with his feet or elsewhere.

Auburn University Football, where quarterbacks come to regress, unless your name is Nick or Cam.

Todd didn't regress

I don't think it's always the style or playcalling under fire, but they're definitely part of the bad recipe. It does make you wonder what kind of disciplinary consequences exist for missed assignments in the week to follow. It's obvious that the lack of playing time is not universally one of them.

Wait, he wrote the book on it. Those who read the book are running it better than the author.

[Zeek 16,957]

Could have been using timeouts on this drive

Because people love to validate there preconceived biases

Developed elsewhere. THat is my point.

They sure do...

[Zeek 16,957]

0 points in the second quarter. Glad we pay this offensive mastermind 7+ million.

At around the same point of his career DC was “the one we needed to replace on ST”. The guys 7-9 this year, give him a break

All I said was the kid wasn't as clutch as his brother and folks went nuts. In warm ups the guy can make 55 yarders like it's nothing. In games...different story. Thankfully he hasn't been put into too many game winning situations. Nothing personal against the kid, he's just not as clutch as his brother was.

He has already missed one slant pass, and 2 other slants were open and he got happy in the pocket.

Todd is the most overrated au qb. 17 of his 23 tds were against the non conference. He was not good vs the sec.

[Farmer Brown 2,464]

Who had the ball first?

 

[JDUBB4AU 5,304]

Solid first quarter , awful second . This game should be easily 35 to zero. Bo has missed several throws and play calling has not helped him either .

His brother missed clutch kicks too, early in his career, and some wanted him benched, he missed at least one game tier/winner at the same point as Anders is in his career. I’m sorry missing a kick up 14-0 in the 2nd quarter isn’t exactly a “clutch kick”. 

[Farmer Brown 2,464]

2 weeks to prepare the first quarter script, then back to normal.

[Eagle-1 3,821]

The same ones complaining about Bo were complaining about the Patriots backup QB last season. How many years of poor QB play do you have to witness before you figure out it's the fault of the architect paid to develop them, and design an offense around them?

Beginning to worry about Bo and his passing......

You realize that statement could cause you some grief... Our QB is terrible and so is the rest of the offense, including coaching
