Rumore swirling dobbs has broken ribs

He threw it down there but the reason it was a touchdown is because Malone made a great catch on an under thrown ball and then made a great play to break away from the tackle. I've yet to see Dobbs throw one down field and a receiver catch it in stride for a touchdown.

That was not an under thrown ball - It was thrown perfectly with Malone catching it in stride. If it had been thrown longer Malone would have not been able to catch it. If it has been thrown shorter it would have been a missed catch or interception.

It was definitely not thrown perfectly. Malone literally had to stop and fight for it.

Obviously you need to re watch the play. You are the only one that saw it that way.
 
And some of you amaze me - I know you don't like the offense - I know that you prefer Tennessee play another QB, one with little experience who may or may not do better - but to not give credit when something looks really good - that is just wrong.

And I do hope that Malone turns into a SEC caliber receiver this year - but catching a pass that he should catch does not make him one.

Just watched the replay. Malone did not have to fight to catch the ball - it landed right in his hands. He had to fight from being tackled by the defender AFTER he had clearly caught the ball.

He eased up and held off the DB with his right hand and caught the pass. What some others are saying is we want Dobbs to throw it where the receiver never breaks stride and it falls into his his arms for a perfect throw and catch. Take a close look at the replay of it and you will see what I'm saying.

Still a great throw and a great catch.

Average throw at best. No reason to have to slow down and allow the db a chance to get back into the play. An SEC db breaks up that catch 19 out of 20 times.
 
Did anyone notice the wide open receivers one of the top passers in college football (Rosen) missed yesterday? The opening play should have been a TD. He missed a couple wide open guys later. It's not as easy as it looks guys.

50 yards in the air, is not average. Maybe average for elite athletes. Dobbs did do 1 little hop and then threw it, that was the difference from in stride vs back shoulder. Malone did a great job maintaining the separation by hand checking the DB when he had to adjust to the ball.

I was very impressed with the catch by JM, he made it look effortless. He will be a great wr in the league if he can get drafted(we shouldn't be worried about if he can get drafted or not, but we thought the same about north a couple of years ago.). He looks the the part of a dominate wr in the sec. I hope we can call plays, and block long enough to give him more deep targets.

Alright I'm done arguing. I'll just remember the poster bigdaddy when Dobbs loses to a team we're suppose to beat this year.

Put me on your list as a Dobbs supporter. BTW, I liked Peterman too, but starting him against Florida was a disaster I wouldn't want to see repeated.
