For me I want to see a coach embrace the traditions of his once rival. The jury is still out on that imo. It won't matter in the end if he wins big AND stays but it would be in his and the vibe around programs best interest if he embraced tradition more openly. I know that isn't in his nature but he needs to bend a little on that imo

Funny how the same posters has a hand in stirring every pot. I guess that is their tradition. Right now the only tradition I care about is to get back to winning games.

I don’t get to Nashville often, but I ate at the Stockyard last time I did. Saw where Peyton had taken his OLine out to eat there back when he was with the Colts. I had steak and lobster tail. It was very good, but it was not cheap.

Hasn't the stockyard been closed for a number of years?

Or anywhere on the keyboard. Been a feature since iOS 11.


And in other news, Dak Prescott is average quarterbacking the crap out of the Redskins.

It closed in 2015. It appears the developers who bought the block the restaurant was located on are going to build apt. complex there, but are supposedly going to preserve the building (maybe a new restaurant) since it is eligible to be on the National Historic Register.

Right. So when I see 15 unblocked ends come flying in every game, I'll just say that 2 seconds to throw is way too much to ask of any line. All on the QB. Right. I hope the line plays better next year, because with the horrible numbers JG has put up this year it just can't get worse. Reality beckons, friend... Just keep ignoring it.

A QB should expect 2.5 seconds to throw the ball. He cannot take the snap, drop back, think about who to throw to, wait until they're open, then throw. JG is physically 100 times the QB KC is. But JG hasn't made throws like the one where KC hit the hot receiver for a big play after first going in. JG CAN make that throw... he cannot make that read. Same with the slant later in the drive.

KC is never going to be a great QB. JG could be one of the best if he could just master the mental part of the game.

The OL is a problem. But it isn't as much of a problem as the JG apologists claim. If he read D's and got the ball out then he wouldn't be getting hit as often. If he hit some hot routes and hurt some D's... they'd stop throwing those types of blitzes against him.

Did you notice what Lock did when UT tried to blitz him? He saw it coming and hit his hot receiver before the D could react. UT had to stop calling those blitzes. I truly wish we saw that out of JG but we don't.

Why? He doesn't anticipate. He doesn't throw receivers open. And... they seldom let him throw risky passes or run plays that depend on him making a read. The last staff and this one throw a lot of screens to the outside. They throw the ball down the sideline against single coverage. Rarely do they throw crossing routes or slants with JG. Though he clearly has the arm, they don't throw quick outs, hitches, or deep outs very often.

He has the arm to make all the throws. The reason he is not being allowed to make all the throws... is between his ears.

Sounds like you're talking about Josh Dobbs....

He also was in shotgun most of his time where as it looks like they want to run under center with jg. In shotgun you can hit a receiver in a quick slant and some short throws faster because you are already back there and can see the play develop. Under center you see the field, look away from the field, then have to find the open receiver where as in shot gun you don't lose that time trying to reassess the field to find the open receiver. You have been looking at it the whole time. The play calling is different when they put KC in opposed to JG. I wish we would run more 5-10 yard slant/post routes and it seems as if they did that while KC was in the game.
