Thorne is holding the ball too long but there are times where he has less than 2 seconds. Slants and screens would help both out Or flares to the RB's.

This offense is putrid. The defense deserves an offense with a pulse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bro Johnny Mac 1,474 Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Thorne looks better out of the pocket on roll outs Need more of that, quick screens and slants... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

33gles 517 Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Need some blitz beaters and quick easy passes. Don't have to be all home runs, just get people on base and settle in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weagl1 1,812 Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 This is a perfect game for us. Low scoring defensive struggle and it can probably be won with a single TD. If we can find a way to get in the end zone the defense has got this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagle-1 3,821 Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 This first possession of the 2nd half is critical. If we can score six we have a real shot here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUTigergrad08 617 Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 I don’t really get why we haven’t seen Ashford. Freeze said he would have packages and all we do is continue to play a QB who plays either with a noodle arm or overthrows people by 15 yards.

AuCivilEng1 12,293 Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 (edited) Cole Pinkston seems to think this is mostly on Montgomery, due to the fact that we arent taking the single man matchups, and that’s Hugh’s thing. He expects Hugh to call more plays in the second half. Cole know like 100x more about football than most of us, so I’m going to take this as hope for Auburn.

Thorne’s play at QB is some of the worst I’ve ever seen. I’m not even trying to be harsh. But he just doesn’t have it. The coaches have zero confidence in him so why they continue to trot him out there is head scratching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CR 2,466 Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 I hoped coming into the season that Thorne could be average at least. Instead he looks absolutely terrified to be on the field for the second road game in a row. Could the WR and OL play be better? Sure but the glaring problem on this offense is a QB who wont pull the trigger and if he manages to he overthrows the target by 5 yards minimum.
