The Atlanta Braves - Hello darkness my old friend

[AV_12]

Hendon was so smart man. Golesh said that Hendon even called plays at time. You can tell how different the flow and rhythm of the offense is.

Night and day

It was his processing speed overall that we really miss (knowing when to tuck it and run is certainly part of that).

It's so sad to see a guy with all the physical tools in the world and not being able to effectively/efficiently use them.

At least with Joe’s it’s not a work ethic thing. Playing QB is extremely hard. It’s why there are only 15 good ones in the NFL

True. If anything, Joe wants it too much and psychs himself out.

While I don't doubt his work ethic, Joe does strike me as a guy who got to where he is mostly on physical talents (his arm being prime among them), and perhaps doesn't have the football IQ and situational awareness needed to play the position at a high level because it hasn't really been an area of focus.

It's like in HS, recruiting camps, offseason camps, etc., he shows up and everyone is mesmerized by the arm, and every other attribute/skill associated with playing the position gets overlooked.

Hookers mobility is also missed tho. Joe is athletic but is not in his league running the ball, or making plays on the run.

He just can’t improvise to save his life right now. Hooker made soooo much happen when it all broke down.

It’s been really shocking how immobile he’s been thus far

IMO, he doesn't like contact. Even when he does take off, he's pretty tentative, especially on improvised runs.

This is just absurd

[raw dog]

don’t believe

sounds to me like he was disciplined and Heupel is protecting his player

Not hating on Etienne but some of our defenders do not meet the threshold to be counted as "after contact."

Should be "after Kamal."

We can clinch the bye tonight

Starting to get a bit more concerned with our pitching

Man that Chubb injury is as bad as it gets. Hope that’s not career ending.

Viewer discretion is advised.

 

[Power T-Rev]

Same knee he blew out in Knoxville in 2015. Hate to see that. Dang man

[SGMVols]

The problem Nico is going to have is that all the fans who want him in now are expecting him to run the offense as well as Hooker did the instant he steps out there, and they’re going to send him to Guarantano Bay like they’ve done to Joe when it doesn’t happen. Then they’ll start attacking Heupel too.

 

[raw dog]

What about when Bru MURKED that DB lol

What about when Bru MURKED that DB lol

That dude is the anti-Hadden. I’d guaranteeKH has never gone out of his way to cover him in spring ball lol
