Title: Milton had another decent game... Post by: Black Diamond Vol on October 29, 2023, 04:43:27 EDT It might be time for CJH to start trusting him with more, because I'm not sure this banged-up defense can win games for us anymore.
And oh BTW- Welcome to the 2023 season, Donte Thornton! :wow: Title: Re: Milton had another decent game... Post by: BanditVol on October 29, 2023, 05:01:28 EDT Good game for Thornton, glad he is finally productive :clap:

Title: Re: Milton had another decent game... Post by: JeffCountyVolFan on October 29, 2023, 05:32:55 EDT Joe played a pretty good game. I?m definitely not a Joe-hater or a bench-Joe-guy, but I think he limits our passing philosophy so much and I do not think the staff has confidence in him throwing anything but sideways, comeback routes, or deep balls. Its like having a Ferrari but not being able to use all of the gears and it makes us easier to defend, I think.
For example, I would like to know how many passes of 10 to 20 yards we have thrown between the hash marks through 8 games. It cannot be a very high number.

It cannot be a very high number. On our last drive against UF, Joe threw 3-4 of those into the middle of the field in a row. It was working really well, then we got to the 25 and Heupel called 4 straight end zone passes, all of which failed. I have nothing against going for it all as soon as we are in the red zone, but I think other teams anticipate that and defend it. It wouldn't hurt to throw a 10 yard pass from the other team's 25 occasionally, then get 4 more downs closer in. It seems we only throw to the end zone inside the 30 :dunno: Title: Re: Milton had another decent game...

I think He must trust Joe with more, we're way to conservative and the D just kept creeping closer and closer to the line....I felt like I was watching Johnny Majors ("we've got the lead, run it and milk the clock). We must pass more to keep the D honest. I was sure we were gonna blow it, kuddos to the D hanging tough and shutting down the run, it was sad how we made one of the worst QBs in the conference appear to be all SEC caliber. All in all, a good win and I'm glad we have an easy one next week 'cause Mizzou is gonna be a dog fight. GBO! :powert: :patriot: |
