Maurer TD

[Bubba Vol]

Did anyone notice Pruitt and Weinke talking to Maurer after his touchdown? It looked like they were being a little harsh to him. Does anyone know what was going on?

I'm still trying to figure out why Brian was not allowed to throw the ball but JT did nothing but throw the ball. Pretty odd imo

He was "hot dogging" for no reason. Ball control is paramount and Maurer strutted in with no ball control. Yeah, it's UTC, but these are fundamental issues that need to be addressed.

Good on the coaching staff.

It looked like he called a run audible to himself instead of the running back. I think it was about that.

 

[sleeper]

They told him stretching out and not securing the ball trying to score on 2nd down is stupid football. He was playing for himself and not for the team. It didn't matter today, but they were teaching a lesson for one day when it does matter.

 

[LeBleu]

I don't think he even needed to dive, and could have cost a touchback

Yeah I saw Pruitt get on Doyle’s ass too for the late hit

He was allowed. Poor decision making. He has a lot to learn.

He had the option to throw multiple times, couldn't find anyone open, and ran to limited success. Looked like they also had some special wrinkles in the run game especially for him. Unfortunately, most of it was unsuccessful.

Sometimes, the QB never learns

 

[Zues1]

Let me reword my statement. It looked to me like JT's plays were basically all design as passing with little thought on the run game. Brian's plays appeared to be designed as rpos with the emphasis on the run. Just an observation

 

[Hacksaw]

Maurer's demeanor gives me the impression that he is immature. I don't say that to be critical. He's a kid and it's understandable if he is a little immature.

Threw 3 passes, 0-3. Did seem like Chaney was more interested in seeing Brian run it than throw it though.

They were pissed he showed that his legs move and they dont want to bench JG too soon.

Seems he has already been learning from the best...

Maybe they decided to play to the players strengths.

then they must have been head over heels about his accuracy

Maybe they wanted to see how good the true FRs wheels were.

After we missed 2 4th and 1’s last week, weinke and Pruitt should realize that short TD’s and first downs aren’t always automatic. Great extra effort from the youngster

You're right. Maurer didn't really check down to his safe pass to pad his stats did he? He showed ambition and grit. So odd..

Whatever you gotta tell yourself to stay saddled on that JG mule. 0-3? I mean..he should be punting instead amirite?! You JG jocksniffers seem real worried

is the best qb starting, yes or no?

 

[PA VOL87]

They were pissed because he didn’t use two hands when diving into the end zone. Does Alton Howard ring a bell???

Lol. Of course not. Make sure to keep watching this season. Your comparisons are like comparing tomatoes on a vine. One is rotten and useless and there are others that are green and need time to fully ripen.
